Automating and Orchestrating Networks with Netdevops

Master a holistic approach to NetDevOps--from concepts to practical implementation

This is your comprehensive, holistic, end-to-end practitioner's guide to all things NetDevOps: all you need to use NetDevOps techniques to enhance network agility, productivity, and value.

Enterprise networking pioneers Ivo Pinto and Faisal Chaudhry introduce NetDevOps' origins, components, advantages, shortcomings, use cases, and adoption challenges. Next, they drill down into NetDevOps CI/CD pipelines and testing, Jenkins automation, EVE-NG clientless multivendor network emulation, and more from a vendor-neutral perspective.

Automating and Orchestrating Networks with NetDevOps is for every network or cloud operator, administrator, engineer, architect, and developer who implements, manages, or maintains network infrastructure. You'll find everything from detailed syntax and reusable code examples to deployment best practices, culminating in a full walkthrough of building your own NetDevOps architecture. Throughout, review questions help you reinforce and verify your understanding. Whatever your background or environment, this guide will help you embark confidently on your own NetDevOps journey.

• Understand where NetDevOps excels (and where it doesn't)
• Explore the components of practical implementations, and how they fit together
• Plan for common challenges, decisions, and investments
• Implement efficient, automated CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins--with practical tooling and example code
• Use EVE-NG to create and configure virtual topologies for testing and verification
• Master proven NetDevOps architectural best practices from industry leaders
• Build your own architecture, step-by-step
• Address common use cases such as configuration changes and compliance verification
• Integrate NetDevOps with ChatOps, and interact with networks via Slack
