NetOps

What is NetOps in software development?

The acronym NetOps stands for “network operations”. As with DevOps and TestOps, it was coined to describe the new reality in network engineering where the emphasis is placed on network agility, network automation and network orchestration. Additionally, a NetOps approach in a company’s operations component means better alignment with its overall business goals. NetOps also involves using Software-defined networking (SDN), intent-based networking, and network function virtualization (NFV) in order to modernize networks.

Network monitoring challenges in heterogeneous environments

The growing complexity of network environments poses great challenges to effective network monitoring. This should come as no surprise: such environments can include bare metals (on-prem solutions), data centers, private and public clouds. Additionally, automation, orchestration and SDNs can greatly enhance your network management, but at the same time add yet another level of complexity. In this blog post, we will discuss the main challenges related to monitoring and how to solve them to streamline the entire monitoring process.

SDN vs traditional networks: revolution or evolution?

SDN is definitely a buzzword in the networking world. Software-defined networks are now gaining momentum among enterprises. But is this a truly disruptive technology that is going to replace legacy networks? Or is it a logical step forward in the evolution of the network? In this blog post I will discuss these questions. As I see it in the introduction to SDN, this is an evolutionary step for networks, not a revolution. Considering the benefits SDN technology offers or even starting to adopt it does not mean sweeping aside the traditional network as we know it.

What are the benefits of SD-WAN? In a word, legion

Software-defined WAN is becoming increasingly popular, and for good reason—it effectively solves a number of important challenges posed by traditional WAN architecture. Reduced costs, increased application performance, more flexible network topology, faster deployment and improved security are the main benefits SD-WAN offers. Read on to learn more.A WAN, or Wide Area Network, is the computer network spanning a wide geographical area (regions, countries or even world). You need a WAN when you have a number of geographically distributed local networks that need to communicate with each other.

The difference between SDN and NFV — a simple guide

Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Software Defined Networking (SDN) technologies are similar and can easily be mistaken for one another. Given their growing popularity of late, it is good to know what SDN and NFV stand for, why they are so popular and what business benefits you can expect from them. In 2016, Cisco published the report “The Zettabyte Era: Trends and Analysis” announcing that by the end of 2016 annual global IP traffic would pass a zettabyte. To be mathematically precise, a zettabyte is a measure of storage capacity equal to 1021 (1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) bytes.
