Itential is gearing up to present at yet another Networking Field Day (NFD) next week on Thursday, January 27 at 10:30 am PST / 1:30 pm EST. The live streamed event is part of Gestalt IT’s Tech Field Day event series, aimed at bringing together the best independent networking thought leaders and companies to discuss network innovation and the core issues our industry deals with.

At NFD 27, we have the pleasure of presenting in front of a great line up of delegates that includes a few familiar faces as well as some fresh ones. We’re thrilled to be sharing exciting updates about Itential with Senior Network Engineer Aaron Conaway, IT Infrastructure Architect Darrel Clute, and Veteran Engineer Ed Horley as well as introducing Itential to new delegates such as Cloud Networking Architect and Network Collective Podcast host Jordan Martin, Editor in Chief at Data Disrupted Kerstin G. Mende-Stief, and many more. We can’t wait to talk all things network automation with these impressive industry experts and hopefully learn a few things from each other.


What We’ll Be Showcasing

Since we’ve done this a time or two, I’m sure you’re all wondering what we have up our sleeves for NFD 27. Without giving away too much, I can share that it will be well worth your time. While this may not be our first NFD appearance, it is VP of Product Management Peter Sprygada‘s first NFD appearance for the Itential team. Peter is no newbie to NFD, and we are thrilled to have him present with us for the first time. Since he has joined our team, Itential’s products have evolved and we are excited to share more on how we are making network automation with Itential easier than ever. Joining him to present will be Itential NFD veterans Rich Martin, Senior Technical Marketing Engineer, and Karan Munalingal, Head of Sales Engineering.

We understand that for most network engineers, you are probably stuck spending your days working through never-ending backlogs of network change requests across multiple network technologies including CLI devices, API-enabled controllers, and public cloud networking elements. If this sounds like a challenge you would like to solve, check out our NFD presentation as we showcase how our products are meeting network and IT teams where they are on their automation journeys, whether just getting started or already using automation assets and scripts, to operationalize network management through automation.

Be sure to tune in live to see firsthand how the Itential Automation Platform is driving operational efficiencies for network teams of all sizes.


Catch up on Past NFD Sessions On-Demand

As I mentioned, this won’t be our first time at NFD. Itential debuted at our first event, Networking Field Day 21 in 2019 and presented again in 2021 at Networking Field Day 24. So, before you tune in next week, you can catch up on all of Itential’s previous NFD appearances.


Networking Field Day 21

During our NFD debut, the team at Itential gave a deep dive introduction into Itential and our products. Our presentation included sessions on our Guiding Principles for Network Automation, Itential’s integration and federation capabilities, our network applications, and network infrastructure as code. You can get the full recap in the blog here and catch up on  each session on-demand here.


Networking Field Day 24

At Networking Field Day 24, we showcased a recent product release and its new features and capabilities that enable automation across network and cloud infrastructure. These sessions included an overview of the new release, CLI automation, API automation, and how to manage configuration and compliance across both network and cloud infrastructure. You can get the full recap in the blog here and catch up on each session on-demand here.
