If you’re at anyway online, you’ve encountered your fair share or “bots.” And with the advent of accessible AI solutions, we’ve seen an exponential increase in bots — and what they’re capable of handling on our behalf. But with this increase in bot activity, there’s also an increase in traffic and access to resources that can be a bit obfuscated. That’s where Hydrolix‘ new offering — Bot Insights — is designed to help.
How…?
Using Bot Insights, you can start by understanding existing bot traffic volumes, identifying the bot traffic that is having a negative impact, and ensuring that good bots are still able to receive content from your CDNs.
Bot Insights is a pre-built bundle that includes dashboards and standardized data for five CDNs without any additional configuration needed: Akamai, Cloudflare, AWS CloudFront, Tencent, and Fastly (with more CDN support coming in the near future). Once the solution is deployed, you get immediate access to how different types of bots interact with your CDN infrastructure.
