3:25 PM - Presentation 1: Introduction to OpenConfig by Daniel Hertzberg / Arista
OpenConfig is an informal working group of network operators sharing the goal of moving our networks toward a more dynamic, programmable infrastructure by adopting software-defined networking principles such as declarative configuration and model-driven management and operations. In this discussion we will talk about getting started with OpenConfig and streaming telemetry data from OpenConfig devices via grpc.
3:55 PM - 5 Minute Break
4:00 PM - Presentation 2: NetDevOps Survey by Damien Garros / Network to Code
Network Automation has been a hot topic in the network industry for few years and yet we have very little data about the state of “network operations through automation" right now. The goal of the NetDevOps Survey is to collect information to understand how network operators and engineers are using automation to operate their network today. The survey is vendor neutral and is managed as an open source project on Github. All responses are anonymous and all results are public. In October 2019, we collected ~300 responses from all types of networks that gave us some unique insight regarding what network engineers are doing when it comes to network automation, what tools they are using and how they managed their journey to network automation. This was the second edition of the survey so this time we also have data to understand the evolution over time.
