Speaker
Description
At DKNOG12 I talked about lessons learned in the implementation of a new network automation platform for a service provider network with thousands of existing business to business services. It's now been in operation for almost two and a half years.
Since then, the platform has grown, bugs have appeared and been squashed, and new functionality has been steadily added.
This talk will focus on the lessons and experiences gained.
In this talk I will present some of the key learnings, both good and bad, and try to sum up these experiences for you to take away into your own automation projects.
About the speaker
Allan Eising works for Telia Company as an architect and lead developer in the network automation team. He has worked with service provider networking for close to two decades and still dreams of a day where network automation will take care of all the tedious work so network engineers can focus on solving interesting problems instead of copy/pasting into terminal windows.
