Network Automation with Nokia and Red Hat OpenShift
Nokia's Event Driven Automation (EDA) is a cloud-native platform that leverages data center fabric automation and AI Operations to simplify the management of network layers across physical switching, hypervisors and infrastructure management. By using an intent-based approach for network lifecycle management, EDA supports multiple vendors and integrates with solutions such as Red Hat OpenShift and Netbox Labs.
Partner POV | Ask EDA: AIOps built for network engineers
What if your network could talk? What if troubleshooting didn't mean wading through CLI outputs and dashboards? What if network alarms could explain themselves?
Nokia Event-Driven Automation (EDA) is turning these questions into real features. We just announced an AIOps-driven future for data center networking, and the future is bright for network teams.
Partner POV | The secret ingredient to scalable networks: Intent-based networking in higher-ed
Picture the high-stakes intensity of a MasterChef kitchen. Each ingredient meticulously selected, each cut executed with precision, every dish a testament to perfection. The judges' eyes, unwavering, demand nothing less than excellence. There is no room for error.
Nokia Altiplano Access Controller Lab
This lab provides users access to Nokia's Altiplano Access Controller for managing Passive Optical Networks (PON). It gives users access to a live network while providing an overview of Altiplano Access Controller and its applications.
Partner POV | Optical transport technology advancements for utilities
Earlier this year, I blogged about the increasing demands on the power grid and how communication networks can help power utilities ensure reliable, secure service delivery. Adding power generation and distribution capacity is a significant undertaking, and utilities should complement it with a communication network that monitors, controls and secures the grid with ease.
Partner POV | How thin transponders help you get more from coherent pluggables
In life, we sometimes face choices where neither option is perfect and both require trade-offs. Imagine you're choosing between two cars: one is a fuel-efficient compact car with excellent mileage but low horsepower, and the other is a powerful sports car that delivers thrilling performance but consumes far more fuel.
