Mapping & Digital Twin
Solution Brief
SOLUTION BRIEF Network Mapping and the Digital Twin The foundation for no-code network automation ® In today’s world, applications are everything and when the network they reside upon stops working, the possibility of key portions of any business grinding to a halt is a major concern, with potentially dire consequences. Thus, network operations professionals become the lifeblood of business and their ability to maintain those hybrid networks starts with their ability to visualize the entire network across locations, regardless of the mix of vendors and device form factors (physical, virtual, software-defined – at the edge and in the cloud). To ensure the business applications are delivered without disruptions, they must have visibility into the relationships between devices, as well as the application paths traversing the network – all in real time. In the end, each application designer or architect requires a certain level of service from the production network, and it is the goal for network operations to deliver upon their design intentions 24x7. NetBrain’s Digital Twin Enables Dynamic Maps The concept of building a comprehensive “Digital Twin”, or And if the Digital Twin is real-time and has contextual robust virtual model of the physical and logical topologies application flow understanding, then any changes desired has risen in importance. Digital twins are important for to the network intents can be made upon the Digital Twin process modeling, business continuity, and to maintain which is ultimately reflected upon the devices themselves. up-to-date documentation for increasingly complex This is the core of the NetBrain system and its Digital Twin - technology infrastructures. to enable intelligent and well- informed Day-2 operations across any hybrid network.
