Itential is gearing up to present at yet another Networking Field Day (NFD) next week on Wednesday, April 12 @ 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET. 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 is facing as network infrastructure continues to grow both more complex and more business-critical.
At NFD 31, we have the pleasure of sharing how Itential’s industry-leading products power networking innovation in front of a great lineup of delegates that includes a few familiar faces as well as some fresh ones. We look forward to reconnecting with people we met at previous NFD events including Principal Network Architect John Herbert, Senior Network Architect Kevin Myers, and Network Architect Tyler Christiansen, and we want to give a special shout-out to Lexie Cooper, Avionics Integration Engineer and Podcast Co-Host of The Art of Networking Engineering, who spoke at one of our awesome ItentiaLadies events last year! Plus, we’ll be introducing Itential’s automation platform to new delegates including Technology, Marketing, and Strategy Consultant Chris Grundemann, Senior Systems Engineer Greg Grimes, Network Architect Jody Lemoine, Network & Cloud Architect Snehal Patel, and many more.
We can’t wait to talk innovations in network automation and the rise of NetDevOps with these impressive industry experts, and we look forward to all learning a few things from each other.
What We’ll be Showcasing: NetDevOps
This year we’re focusing our session on how Itential is enabling teams to adopt NetDevOps. To start, our Co-Founder and CTO Chris Wade will introduce how Itential’s network automation solutions enable emerging NetDevOps teams to integrate, build, test, and validate automated network change processes that can be shared and consumed easily for enterprise-wide scalable network automation and orchestration. Itential allows networking teams to adopt key best practices from the DevOps world without losing any networking-specific functionality, taking NetDevOps from potential to possible.
The rest of our session will be a series of demos, showing you step-by-step how the key features and capabilities of Itential’s industry-leading platform bridge the gap between NetOps and DevOps teams so they can create a self-service platform for their organization.
After our session at this year’s NFD, you’ll be well equipped to bring a NetDevOps mindset back to your organization with proven examples and demos to back you up.

Tech Field Day Extra at Cisco Live US 22
At TFDx, we showcased how Itential users can quickly onboard existing CLI and script automations, incorporate them into automation workflows across all network domains, and easily integrate with any IT system such as ticketing and notification systems for end-to-end network automation. With Itential, teams can streamline network change management, verify those changes will lead to the desired outcome, and automate the changes to the network.
