This week at the Cloudexpo event in Paris, we had the pleasure at OpsMill to present Infrahub alongside our great partners from ATE - Eurofiber Cloud Infra ! A big thank you to the team for delivering an excellent presentation on the future of automation and showcasing how cloud infrastructure continues to drive innovation through open-source tools. Exciting times ahead for the future of infrastructure management! #automation #opensource #infrahub

There are many barriers to effective infrastructure automation. Fragmented data SoTs that live outside of any CI process are two big ones. But traditional infrastructure management approaches don’t help because they come with fixed, inflexible data models that can’t integrate all the data you need to run your business your way. Learn how a new, barrier-breaking approach is helping organizations build infrastructure services smarter. 🧠

Mark your calendars! 🗓️ On Dec. 12, 2024, at 11:00 AM ET, we’ll be showcasing Infrahub 1.0, packed with powerful new features designed to enhance how you manage your infrastructure #Data: ✅ Single-Sign On (SSO) for seamless access. ✅ Granular User Permissions (RBAC) for precise control. ✅ Performance Enhancements to handle complex workloads effortlessly. ✅ Major UI/UX Updates for an intuitive experience. Join our Director of Product Management, Brett Lykins, as he dives into these exciting updates with live demos. Learn how Infrahub can turn your infrastructure into consumable services with a continuous integration lifecycle. 🔗 Save your spot: https://lnkd.in/eqMYj_8M

We’re thrilled to welcome our newest #SolutionArchitect to the OpsMill team! Based in Denver, Mikhail Yohman brings a wealth of experience, having led network automation engineering at Wells Fargo and worked closely with Damien Garros and Brett Lykins during his time at Network to Code. With over a decade in IT—spanning help desk, system administration, networking, and automation—he’s ready to jump into our latest projects. When he’s not solving complex challenges, you’ll find him out riding his dirt bike, playing disc golf, exploring new restaurants, or at a live concert. Plus, he’s a proud dad to an 11-year-old daughter he loves spending time with. Welcome to the team!

Excited to be at #Autocon2 this week with the OpsMill team. Network automation is maturing and it's super cool to see. Why do I think that network automation is maturing? Well, one indicator is simply the fact that a platform approach like Infrahub is so commercially viable today. Up til now, network and most infrastructure automation products have been mostly packaged applications with fixed schemas. Infrahub provides a completely custom data model and schema. You have to build on it. The level of interest OpsMill is getting means that enough automation teams have progressed to be ready to invest in building on a platform. A related indicator is the robust appetite for what I would consider a fairly in-depth workshop on Data Modeling & Network Source of Truth led by Damien Garros and crew. Learning about data modeling, schemas, polymorphism, idempotency etc, with dozens of folks doing multiple labs on these topics speaks to growing capacity for advanced automation knowledge and action. Network teams want greater agency in designing, modeling, and automating. Why? So they can turn network and other infrastructure into services. Network automation today reminds me of where network observability was about a decade or so ago. At that time, I was the first marketing leader at Kentik and then led product marketing at Cisco ThousandEyes. These companies are examples (amongst others) of significant enterprise-class software companies that were maturing the state-of-the-art from element monitoring based on SNMP to service-oriented network observability to encompass at-scale use of flow, routing, and network synthetics. Interestingly, what drove significant investments in those observability technologies was the fact that the network was such a critical part of delivering digital services and user experience. So the parallels to the growth of sophistication in network automation seem pretty relevant. Anyway, great job so far with the workshops Network Automation Forum! Getting my popcorn ready for Anna Claiborne's opening keynote ;-). I look forward to seeing friends and meeting new folks too! #networkautomation #servicedelivery

We're excited to announce the launch of Infrahub Enterprise, our fully supported version of Infrahub that features: - Advanced role-based access controls (RBAC) integrations  - High-performance Neo4j Enterprise database - SLA-backed support - Hardened production-ready releases We’ve seen a lot of companies respond enthusiastically to the power and flexibility that Infrahub offers to support their infrastructure automation journey. Many of them want and need a supported version so that they can focus less on upkeep of the platform and focus more on turning their infrastructure into consumable services. Infrahub Enterprise comes on the heels of Infrahub 1.0 which has been released and is available via our Github. Read the full release here. https://lnkd.in/eqP7mZqh

In our recent webinar, Jordan Villarreal from OpsMill and Otto Coster from Netpicker.io discussed how these platforms enhance CI/CD processes in network automation. While CI/CD has transformed software development, network automation faces unique hurdles. Infrahub and Netpicker provide tailored solutions that simplify this integration. Infrahub offers vendor-neutral data management, allowing teams to define schemas and integrate business data effectively. 🌟 For the full webinar recap, check out the blog! https://lnkd.in/eDU_EwFs #NetworkAutomation #CICD
