Integrations are the building blocks of a successful automation strategy, yet integrating with all the various IT and network systems you use can be challenging. In this session, Rich Martin, Director of Technical Marketing at Itential, demonstrates how Itential’s codeless integration with both APIs and non-programmable CLI interfaces enables NetDevOps teams to quickly integrate with their entire environment for network automation with capabilities such as:
- A library of 300+ open source pre-built integrations, adapters, and data transformations published by Itential for common network and IT systems.
- Ability to build your own codeless integration with Itential’s Adapter Builder.
- Onboarding of CLI-managed network devices for use in API-based systems with Itential’s Automation Gateway.
- Onboarding and transformation of script-based automation assets via JSON schema association to be callable with APIs.
- Southbound integration with physical, virtual, and cloud network infrastructure to use in building automations.
- Federation of device, data, and services across all systems including ITSM, order management, and DevOps pipelines.
