Remove the barriers of deploying, monitoring and managing a data center network, while improving application reliability and availability and security -- all while lowering operating costs. To build an Intent-Based Data Center that automates tasks like configuration of networking devices, you need to provide a cloud-like experience and simplify operations. Learn how to achieve these goals with Intent-Based Networking technology, analytics and telemetry. SONiC can play an integral role in the process to further reduce complexity, provide full lifecycle support (design, deploy, operate) and data gathering with on-box or off-box telemetry. In three steps, Apstra will share how you can unlock a wider set of opportunities and functionality in your network infrastructure to pursue the autonomous data center using SONiC.
