Yet another Test article
While there are many known benefits of IT automation, firsthand accounts of what it takes to implement specific automations can be hard to come by. However, real-world examples are a helpful tool for large organizations that are trying to incrementally automate their IT environments.
Automation across IT infrastructure plays an important role in helping WWT execute proofs of concept at speed and scale through our Advanced Technology Center (ATC).
In this ATC insight, we dive deep into some of the automations that we've implemented. These are automations that have yielded the highest return on investment when it comes to making our POC process more efficient. While our motivation for implementation comes from improving technology testing, these automations can be applied to any large IT shop looking to gain efficiency, cost savings, time savings and scalability.

iSCSI Storage on Cisco HyperFlex
The next release of Cisco HyperFlex Data Platform will introduce iSCSI block storage to complement the existing NFS file protocol that customers have grown to love. Block storage will enable customers to run clustered workloads with shared disks that currently cannot be hosted on HyperFlex. We were able to test a beta release of the software 4.5(1a) at the ATC for functionality and usability. Additionally, we want to give you an early look at enabling iSCSI and creating storage objects!
Starting the beta installation, we expect the setup of iSCSI to be simple and straight forward. Since iSCSI is configured on a cluster after the cluster is operational, setup is streamlined and can be performed from HyperFlex Connect.
We take you through a step-by-step process of our configuration and testing. If you would like to see these details click on the ATC Insight Section.
**Note that UI and command-line options may change with the release of the final product (currently scheduled for late December 2020).

Itential Automation Platform and Ansible Orchestration in an ACI Environment
This demonstration shows the Itential Automation Platform (IAP) leveraging Ansible as a device configuration orchestrator, to provision an ACI controller. The intent of the demo is to show you how IAP can use Ansible (and it's vast library of modules) as part of an operations workflow directly managing devices. The workflow provisions a new tenant into the controller, via the Ansible ACI module -- no playbook is required.
