NetBrain Next-Gen 3rd-Party Integrations Maximize Automation Value NetBrain works seamlessly with five types of external systems and enhances their value with triggered event-driven no-code automation. Pre-built API connectors provide a single source of truth integrating data and events from your existing IT monitoring systems. 1.I ITSM systems – ticket data drives network troubleshooting workflow 2. Telemetry system – alerting drives continuous network rule and design enforcement 3. Application Performance Monitoring (APM) systems – drives application management workflow 4. Security information and event management (SIEM) systems – threat detection drives security management workflow 5. Change Orchestration, AIOps, etc. – other events drive network change workflow The NetBrain Next-Gen Platform Difference NetBrain Next-Gen is the only Day-2 Network Automation platform that manages any hybrid network by capturing, replicating, and enforcing network design intents to eases problem diagnosis and maintain ideal network conditions. It reduces disruptions, proves network innocence, resolves issues quicker, protects the network from unintended consequences of change, enforces a network that’s secure by design, and meets every application’s unique needs to ensure the best performance. NetBrain Next-Gen Platform Network automation accelerates on-going, or Day-2, operations at scale. No-code network automation provides broad and tangible benefits over code-based approaches, increasing collaboration across service delivery teams. Traditional “Code-based” Approach Intent Based No-Code Approach Applies to primarily fixed environments which can be specified Applies to any hybrid multi-cloud, multi-vendor network precisely at the time of project commence – devices, connectivity, and Based on full stack Digital Twin, including devices, connectivity, real- application requirements identified time traffic flows and network intents Focuses on device health and connectivity, not aware of any details of Captures subject matter expertise through no-code to create desired applications or service delivery required to support them network behaviors, replicate behaviors across the network, and then Rigid programming projects, with detailed functional specifications leverage that knowledge before, during, and after issues are detected Limited device-level abstraction; every vendor, model, and version Tackles all repetitive tasks throughout the lifespan of the must be treated separately and uniquely and code revised as device infrastructure, from the smallest of tasks to the largest configurations are changed Scales expertise to provide solution consistency and reduced overhead Requires DevOps, SECops, WANops and DCOps engineers, and NetOps and escalations engineers to work together, long and costly development cycles, Provides a robust change management platform to assure business excessive costs, rigid deliverables services are preserved prior to making changes and after changes are Challenges to scale since every situation, no matter how similar, must complete, with roll-back as needed be programmed individually Provides a comprehensive collaboration platform where resources can Focuses on interactive usage, rather than responding to external events resolve an operational issue that spans organizational responsibility or prevention Conserves engineering resources and reduces the staffing/skills Considered for only the biggest and most well-defined tasks that rarely needed for scale changed Datacenter, SDN and SD-WAN
