operationalize your automations with torero
So you wrote a really cool script, that’s great!
And it works on your laptop – even better!
But, what happens when you want to share your awesome work with someone else?
You give them your script, they run it and it immediately produces an exception. Then you get to spend a lot of time working together to troubleshoot only to realize they didn’t have the same version of some library dependency you have.
Kinda defeats the whole purpose, right?
That is a common scenario and frustration heard from the Network Automation Community and that’s exactly why torero was built. torero is a free tool that acts as an automation gateway, providing a uniform way to execute automations so when you share them with others, they can seamlessly execute it the same way you would.
Network engineers would prefer to focus on building network automations without all the distractions of managing systems needed to scale their efforts in a way that works for them. Sharing automations still has requirements if you want to do it in a safe and scalable way, including logging, auditing, etc. torero does all of that for you, so you can focus your time on building automations.

Peter Sprygada, VP of Product Management at Itential joins Eric Chou and Drew Conry-Murray of Packet Pushers to discuss how network engineers can save a lot of time and effort when ramping up with network automation by leveraging Itential’s free tool, torero.
they dive into ::
- the driving force behind the creation of torero and the importance of listening to the community.
- the time-consuming efforts that many engineers are stuck spending time trying to figure out when they want to share their network automations.
- what an automation gateway is and how it can solve a lot of daily problems for network engineers.
- how to seamless go from local development to team development – and the productivity benefit of doing so.
- what’s coming in future releases and how you can contribute to the roadmap.
>_ how torero helps operationalize your network automations
torero is a free tool to seamlessly launch python, playbooks, and plans against production infrastructure. By using torero, teams can refocus time on building automations instead of figuring out how to operationalize what they’ve already built.
