[Virtual] PRO SESSION (CloudX): Building Robust Networks: The Power of CI/CD in Network Validation

Thursday November 14, 2024 2:00pm - 2:25pm PST

Naveen Achyuta, Roblox, Network Reliability Engineer

While CI/CD practices are well-established in software development, the networking field is still adapting to these methodologies. This presentation demonstrates a method for validating network configurations in a lab environment, both pre- and post-deployment, to build confidence before implementing changes in production networks. Using open-source tools, custom scripts, and containerlab, we'll walk through each step of implementing a CI/CD pipeline. This approach not only enhances confidence in network deployments but also bridges the gap between traditional networking practices and modern DevOps methodologies.
