Network automation 101: Getting started with network automation
Networks have already begun to adapt to meet the next generation of needs as digital transformation accelerates to include better connectivity across remote locations, programmability of campus and datacenter networks, and of course hybrid cloud modernizations. As these transformations take place, networks become even more essential and increase in size and complexity. Manual processes and operations will not be able to keep pace, and so companies are increasing their network automation efforts to respond faster to business needs, increase efficiency, reduce unexpected downtime, control costs and unburden valuable resources for more transformative work. But where do you start and what technologies can provide you the most flexibility? Join this session to learn how Red Hat® Ansible® Automation Platform can help to automate full network processes instead of just one sliver of network operations.
