Andrew Lerner - Research Vice President, Networking at Gartner will reveal Gartner’s view on the State of Network Automation. He will review the categories of tools within Network automation and provide an aspirational view of the future, what good network automation looks like. He will conclude his session recorded specifically for the presentation with Recommendations from Gartner on the matter. This presentation will be followed by a demonstration of Network Automation applied to Application creation with DDI at its core, from a change request placed in a Change tool (e.g. ITSM) to the App being deployed via: --IPAM repository provisioning --Network & compute creations --App removal to complete the App Life Cycle You will also learn how DDI Automation is the hub for Network Automation.

With the introduction of network programmability and APIs for everything - from management systems to devices themselves, the modern network landscape has evolved to being managed like software. This shift from hardware-focused networks to a software-centric functions, has had a profound effect on network management techniques and skillsets required to keep pace with the changing ecosystem. This transformation can be difficult, especially given that network automation has typically required technical skills that are not in abundance within many organizations. Simplifying network automation and empowering a broader set of participation through capabilities to easily create and manage automation workflows, presents a key opportunity for organizations to not only mature efforts around network automation, but to also execute against broader business digital transformation objectives. Gartner explains democratization as “providing people with access to technical expertise via a radically simplified experience and without requiring extensive and costly training.” Itential’s primary mission is to provide software that enables network engineers, software developers and IT operations to participate in network automation, bridge the skills gap and enable cross-functional groups to efficiently execute their day to day activities. Itential’s Automation Studio democratizes network automation by providing NetOps teams with the ability to easily design, build and visualize end to end network automations without having to re-tool, build custom code or learn specialized software skills. In this webinar you will learn: • The business needs and objectives that are driving network automation initiatives. • How to easily design, build and visualize end to end network automations with Itential’s Automation Studio. • How solutions such as Itential’s Automation Platform expand participation in network automation and drive digital transformation objectives.

Effectively automating infrastructure today is no longer a luxury but a staple in the enterprise move through future transformation. The place where applications, data, and systems intersect is the network, and the future network must be delivered consistently, reliably, and at scale. Innovation in public cloud heralds a whole new approach for delivering immutable networking at scale, and modern network solutions make it possible to harness these approaches across your entire network. This discussion will explore the following areas: • Causal explanation of why network design today makes automation across core, edge, and cloud challenging • Identify the specific attributes in public cloud that enabled agility for compute and application delivery, and explore applying them to the whole domain of networking • Examine the benefits of leveraging Continuous Integration + Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) as a vehicle for building and managing fully immutable network infrastructure

Today’s networks are becoming increasingly hybrid and complex to build and run efficiently. Companies’ increased reliance on the internet has recently aggravated the need to converge towards new methods to build and run networks. This demand has marked the birth and rise of Network Observability as a new paradigm. In this webinar, Greg Villain and Steve Meuse will walk attendees through a tour of how Network Observability puts network operators in the driver’s seat to face the challenges of an ever-changing economy and focus their engineering and operational efforts on what matters: Cost, performance, and reliability. In this webinar you will learn: • What is Network Observability? • Tools and methods for simplifying complex, hybrid network data. • The infrastructure decision framework: cost, performance, and resilience. • How to stay efficient in the face of tooling, team siloing, and process. • The essential questions of network monitoring. About the speakers: Steve Meuse is a Solutions Architect for Kentik with 30 years of Service Provider networking experience. Steve is an active member of the Internet Operations community and serves on the NANOG Program Committee. Greg Villain has 20+ years of experience split between Engineering, Operations and Product Management roles. He's been involved in building and operating networks of all shapes and sizes from Triple Play broadband subscriber networks (T-Online France) to large CDNs (Commercial: Tata and Pure play: Netflix).

This webinar is designed to dispel common misconceptions about Advanced Secure Networks (ASNs) that we’ve heard time and again that are outdated, or only half true. Michael Gaffney, Head of Public Sector at Aliro, and Daniel Winton, Solutions Engineer at Aliro, will tackle the most frequently asked questions organizations have about entanglement-based Advanced Secure Networks. In this webinar you will learn: - Technology Readiness Levels of Advanced Secure Networks - Practical deployment timelines - The use cases for Advanced Secure Networks - How your current network will change when adopting Advanced Secure Networking technologies Organizations who are preparing their businesses, security posture, and connectivity for the evolving threat landscape are investigating how to plan, design, and implement advanced secure networking solutions today. This webinar will help prepare you to navigate the security threats of the future.

Maybe you’ve heard about the “shift left” in technology infrastructure and development, but what exactly does it mean to shift left in networking? How do we build networking functionality directly into an application, making networking part of the software development process itself and treating network infrastructure as code? Join along in this live discussion with Scott Raynovich, Founder and Chief Analyst at Futuriom Research and Chris Wade, CTO of Itential as they explore how IT leaders can enable a true shift for networking by adopting automation as an operational model.
