DC Network Automation Using K8’s Cloud-native Constructs – Nokia Triple-T
While there are many automation tools and platforms in the market, the reality is that for many of the typical enterprise network operations tasks are still done manually. Surveys conducted by Network Management organizations and Industry Analysts across industries report that network automation is often only partially deployed and less than half of the typical manual tasks have been automated. This results in islands of automation and unfulfilled value against the business spend.
In this Triple-T presentation we demonstrate how the concepts of Kubernetes and open community toolsets can be applied to network automation and orchestration to simplify operations. This enables the creation of easily consumable and highly predictable data center networks that give you the confidence to move as speed. From this session you will gain insights into why Kubernetes is the right foundation for network programmability and will see the solution in simplifying the complex.
