Mid-Market Service Provider Automation Alternatives and Strategy Briefing
Mid-market service providers are faced with numerous operations challenges every day. Network rollout, new services and ever-tightening budgets are driving operators to find new solutions, particularly in the area of automation. But service automation and IT automation can be very different matters. Tools that work for data center rollouts may not work for deploying and managing new customer services. Operations managers, network planners and solution architects are asking: what tools are best for service automation, can we automate without a costly consulting project, how would automation affect my operation, could we support it, how can we get beyond CLI-based operations, and what are other mid-market service providers doing?

Network Services Automation and Management Briefing
You’ve been tasked with creating an automation solution for network services. This problem is very different than infrastructure automation. You have to consider the customer/service relationship; the whole “service lifecycle”; and how to cleanly add, change and remove service configuration. Standard IT automation tools don’t seem to solve all the problems and you’re left doing expensive custom development (not to mention the support issues of such a solution). Are there tools out there which address this problem? Request this briefing to get ideas and information to help you solve your service automation problems.
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.
