Micro-segmentation has delivered deep flow visibility and simplified firewall rule management
Although mapping is currently fine, Akamai Segmentation [Private Offer Only] can improve by providing a more useful and visually appealing graphical user interface for mapping. While we can automate rules through API calls, this is not entirely possible with the same API. Navigation between different sources and generations of APIs can make it time-consuming to achieve cartography. While labeling is beneficial, there is still room for user experience improvements. The improvements are not solely due to the Akamai project; they also stem from issues related to CMDB and the information systems of our company, where sometimes the information is inconsistent, causing Akamai to be unable to automate labeling if that information is not consistently provided.

Interactive dashboards have transformed how I visualize SQL data and track key business metrics
The best features I found most useful in Tableau [Private Offer Only] are interactive dashboards, flexible data visualizations, SQL database connectivity, and filtering options. These features make it easier to explore business data, identify trends, and present insights clearly. I also appreciate the flexibility to customize calculations and update dashboards as business requirements change. Interactive dashboards in Tableau [Private Offer Only] allow my team to explore data using filters and drill downs instead of relying only on static reports. Flexible visualizations help present complex information in a clear, easy-to-understand format. This makes it easier to identify trends, compare key metrics, and understand business performance. It also helps us adapt dashboards when reporting requirements change.
