Automating the Design Process
How can automation improve designing a network/service?
Surely the formal structure automation requires hinders the design process.
Or could automation help get to the design holy trinity: quicker service delivery, lower design cost while maintaining quality?

No Need to Run from Design Complexity
Today's businesses are demanding network agility and availability, while lowering the TCO. By designing and deploying the network from a central repository, complexity can be made manageable allowing you to create networks without compromise. This also touches on the multi-vendor discussion.

Going Beyond Network Automation: The Road towards Autonomic Networking
Introducing Autonomic Networking, discussing its characteristics and properties, and comparing it with traditional network automation concepts. Outlining that making network elements “autonomic” with an abstract “intent” and “objection” interface reduces the overall network complexity because of massively reduced dependencies between the administrator or NMS system and the network itself.

Scalable Configuration Management using NETCONF and YANG
Network providers are challenged by new requirements on fast and error-free service turn-up. This is blocked by current configuration approaches by CLI scripting or lock-in by commercial tools based on device-specific adaptors. Describing a management solution based on the IETF standards NETCONF and YANG to address the configuration management challenges and showing that it greatly simplifies the configuration management integrations towards devices and still provides good performance.
