Today, network automation has shifted from nice-to-have to must-have. Automating key NOC processes (ranging from simple to complex) offers a wide range of benefits. But don't take my word for it — the ROI numbers speak for themselves.
In my seven months at Puppet, I continue to be amazed at the opportunity we have to drive value in some of the biggest companies and institutions in the world. Automation is no longer a nice to have -- it’s a must. As more companies further their cloud strategies to include cloud-native infrastructures, the complexity increases, making automation indispensable.
Over the past year, we’ve talked to people building and operating the next generation of applications. Across the map, we saw cloud-native applications built upon an ever-increasing number of public cloud infrastructure APIs, tools, and managed services. Modern infrastructure lets anyone create automation, not just a few gatekeepers. This shift is powerful, but comes at the cost of complexity, which we built Relay to manage.
