Ansible Network Automation, GitOps for NetOps - DEVNET-2510A new paradigm shift has created a more opinionated and simpler model: GitOps. This talk covers a simple network as code approach where your Source of Truth (SoT) is simply a Git Repository and every pull request starts your automation workflow for applying network changes in a highly automated way. DevOps or NetDevOps doesn’t have to be overly complex, and automation is not all or nothing. I will cover operationalizing GitOps for the enterprise and using Ansible network resource modules, webhooks, Github Actions and Automation controller workflows and approvals. Whether you are beginning your automation journey or are a seasoned veteran there will be something for you in this talk. Sean Cavanaugh, Senior Principal Technical Marketing Manager - Ansible, Red Hat |
