No longer do we live in a world where you can build your networks around expensive, proprietary pieces of hardware and software. Technology moves so fast that you need to be able to keep up, and that means changing your network on demand. But how can you achieve that kind of flexibility while still maintaining the crucial aspects of performance and reliability? In this webinar we'll look at the network agility provided by OpenStack, which enables you to gain all of the advantages of software defined networking and Network Functions Virtualization without having to compromise on basic requirements. We'll discuss: •How Mirantis OpenStack enables enterprise and telecom networking •The features your OpenStack distribution needs to enable NFV •Using DPDK and SR-IOV to enhance Virtual Network Function performance •Achieving a Highly Available OpenStack control plane with Multi-rack deployment

Learn how Cisco is powering progress through simplicity at scale and advancing our Cisco Networking Cloud vision with innovations that simplify operations, fortify network security, and advance AI across the network.

The network landscape has changed significantly in recent years. After a long period of a relatively standardized, static model of layer 2 and layer 3 services based on LAN and core network topologies, new capabilities have become more prevalent. These include technologies like public/private/hybrid cloud networking, SDN, SD-WAN, virtualization/containerization of network functions, and the explosive growth in demand for fully functional, remote worker access. Due to these new technology additions, the CLI-centric network of the past has been disrupted by dynamic, virtualized, API-centric functions and applications. With each new technology introducing additional complexity to the operations and management of the network, developers and users need access to “same day” availability of network services with the same agility and flexibility that has come to be associated with the public cloud providers. In this webinar, hear how S&P Global Digital Network Services team has developed an automation strategy using the Itential Automation Platform to automate and orchestrate both traditional and emerging network technologies and provide self service capabilities in order to significantly improve agility, velocity, and to better align network services and capabilities with business objectives.

Historically, network teams have used spreadsheets as a method of managing the allocation and utilization of IP addresses on the network. While this may have worked initially, many network organizations have recognized the downside of such a low-tech and inefficient solution and migrated into a more appropriate solution for managing this critical network resource. NetBox is a popular choice with network teams as a solution for managing IP addresses, inventory, and many more network resources. Network teams may overlook the robust REST API features it has, which makes it simple to integrate into the Itential Automation Platform to enable them to build automations that can directly access this as a source of truth. By coupling Data Transformations along with API integration, Itential can help network teams build a bridge that translates data between multiple IT systems, like NetBox and ServiceNow, inside a network automation. These features will enable the network team to spend less time manually accessing data from different applications and reduce the potential of inputting bad data due to human error. In this demo, you will learn to: • Understand the NetBox API structure. • Build an Itential automation workflow to utilize NetBox API calls. • Automate IP address reservation, queries, and updates. • Build a Data Transformation between NetBox and ServiceNow.

Most businesses prefer to control the day-to-day operations of their networks using their own resources. The increasing complexity of modern networks means that the overall acquisition, control and deployment for network security projects is far more challenging than before. With decreasing IT budgets and limited resources within high growth businesses; how are network teams expected to improve operational efficiency without sacrificing quality of service and service level agreements? In a world that is fraught with new security exploits, maintaining operational efficiency with a low impact on resource and cost can be very difficult. What are the best practices for maintaining an operationally efficient network security deployment? How do network teams stay on-top of daily routine tasks, such as policy configuration, upgrades and network security monitoring? How can network teams be enabled to focus on mission critical projects through automation? Learn from case studies about network security and firewalls which enable the deployment of firewalls within highly distributed networks without sacrificing time or security. Join Forcepoint and (ISC)² on Oct 26 (Wed) at 1:00p.m. (Singapore time) in learning the best practices on operational efficiency in network security. Presenter: Michael Ferguson, Strategic Security Solutions Consultant, Forcepoint Moderator: Clayton Jones, Managing Director, Asia-Pacific, (ISC)²

The next generation of networking brings intelligence to the network from core to edge, harnessing the power of AI to drive greater agility in meeting business needs. Join us as we look at how businesses use the foundational elements of the new network, such as SDN and SD-WAN, to prepare for the advent of AIOps and the creation of a more autonomous, self-managing, self-healing network.

Digital transformation is the talk of the tabloids and business pundits but what does it mean for network engineers and architects? Find out, as we dive deep into the possibilities and probabilities of changing the business running on a legacy network. IT pundit and analyst, Greg Ferro from Packet Pushers podcast, will speak with Dave Greenfield, Cato’s secure networking evangelist, about realities of preparing enterprise networks for the “digital business.” Ferro has a unique perspective on what IT should be considering based on 25-years of IT experience as a network architect, analyst, and podcaster.
