Networks are growing in scope rapidly and managing its infrastructure becomes more and more complex. You need a way to improve speed, efficiency, accuracy and compliance across your network—all the way to the edge. Automation helps you meet these goals and unburdens you from repeated tasks that take time away from other priority network innovation needs. Now with event-driven automation, you can flexibly respond automatically to changing conditions to make more time for innovation and work smarter.
Dutch rail operator ProRail is responsible for the Netherlands' entire railway network. To prepare for growing traffic and new demand for operational technology, they sought to make their IT network and infrastructure more efficient. Julien Schmaltz, Product Owner IT at ProRail, will show you how they use Red Hat® Ansible® Automation Platform as their foundation.
Our Red Hat experts will guide you through what an automation platform such as Red Hat Ansible can do for you, present and demo to you how to use network automation to manage multivendor environments, and how to use Ansible for NetDevOps.
This event is for anyone who is interested in learning more about how to manage critical infrastructure with automation and network automation specifically. The presentations might be especially interesting to experts in the field of network engineering, network security, network administration and Data Center / Telecom engineering.
