Packet Pushers Video Bytes: Centrally Manage & Execute Your Network Automations with Itential
There are many organizations that view orchestration as the ultimate destination, but the reality is that there are things that you need to deal with right here and now — starting with automation.
Itential’s Automation Service helps teams solve the challenges that they often face when operationalizing automation. It’s designed with both developers and operators in mind, providing each group with the capabilities they need to effectively scale their automations with confidence.
“We want to meet customers where they are and how they operate.”
By providing developers with a framework to share automations more easily (without changing the tools they use to build) and giving operators the ability to self-serve automations without learning new tools, we aim to bridge the gaps that often keep teams from realizing automation’s true value.
In this episode of Packet Pushers’ Video Bytes, Itential’s Chief Architect Peter Sprygada joins Ethan Banks, Packet Pushers Founder and CEO, to explore the what, the how, and crucially the why of Itential’s Automation Service, including a hands-on demo.
Watch the video to hear Peter and Ethan cover:
- How Itential helps unify execution for Python, Playbooks, and Plans, so you can build automations however you want— without having to switch up toolsets.
- How the automation service’s SaaS component allows operators to self-serve published services without having to learn your automation’s nuances — with full RBAC and input validation capabilities available.
- A demo of the Itential Automation experience from the perspective of both a developer/builder and an operator/consumer.
- How our automation service fits together with Itential’s network and infrastructure orchestration products.
