Experience-First Automation: Achieving experience-first networks using intent
Shrinking budgets. Increasing expectations. A growing need for agility and transformation. These evolving IT demands, coupled with the digitization and cloudification of modern business operations, make intent-based automation an obvious choice for operators of large networks.
But what does intent really mean, and why is it so essential for creating an efficient and flexible closed control loop?
This white paper by Appledore explores the role of intent in network automation. It argues that the definitions of intent and objectives of service assurance should be identical, and that leveraging this simple realization can lead to valuable points of integration. Representative use cases will be shared to illustrate how theory translates to reality, including a look at how Juniper’s newest Paragon Automation solution transforms these best practices into action.
