"In recent years, intent-based networking has become a hot buzzword that many
organizations aim to implement, but that few truly understand," said Jeff
Doyle, Member of Technical Staff at Apstra and author of Intent-Based
Networking for Dummies. "With this book, we strive to shed light on what IBN
really is, what makes a solid blueprint for implementation, and where the
technology fits into one's digital transformation efforts."
Intent-based networking, which Doyle describes in his book, is a key element to
the success of digital transformation. However, too many organizations lack the
resources to understand how to implement its architecture and leverage its
benefits to support digital transformation endeavors. From specific use cases
to deployment strategies, the book offers unparalleled insight into
transforming and operating networks by supporting rapid, at-scale changes,
making the network more autonomic throughout its life cycle, and providing
up-to-date insights into the network.
"Organizations that don't adjust their operational practices are three times
more likely to fail in their digital business transformation," said Mansour
Karam, President and Founder of Apstra. "At Apstra, we provide our customers
with the support necessary to adjust operational practices and implement
intent-based networking to create an agile network that promotes change. Our
hope is that this book equips organizations of all types with the knowledge
they need to take the first steps toward this transformation."
With more than 30 years of experience specializing in IBN, IP routing
protocols, complex BGP policy, SDN/NFV, and data center fabrics, Doyle has
designed or assisted in the design of large-scale IP and IPv6 service provider
networks in 26 countries over six continents. Doyle has served as the go-to
author for software-defined networking, penning books such as CCIE Professional
Development: Routing TCP/IP, Volumes I and II; OSPF and IS-IS: Choosing an IGP
for Large-Scale Networks; and Software-Defined Networking: Anatomy of OpenFlow.
Doyle takes readers deeper into the reality of IBN. Specific topics include:
- The fundamental characteristics of intent-based networking
- Planning for a successful intent-based networking architecture
- Extracting actionable insights with intent-based analytics
- The importance of continual automation and validation in operations
- How to rapidly deploy complex architectures and ensure their success
beyond the implementation phase
