Modern enterprise networks are growing into a complex collection of domains and technologies managed by different teams and systems – making it difficult for network teams to find solutions that can enable self-service automation for BOTH cloud and traditional network domains as infrastructure continues to move towards the hybrid model.
By combining Itential’s network-centric automation and integration platform with Alkira’s multi-cloud networking capabilities, network teams can now easily manage and orchestrate multi-cloud networks, reducing complexity and delivering IT infrastructure more efficiently. Alkira simplifies the provisioning, operation, and management of multi-cloud networking, while Itential enables the entire network team to participate in automating across their network domains, integrating with the tools and solutions they already have, and orchestrating end-to-end processes for self-service delivery.
In this demo see how you can leverage Itential + Alkira to:
- Create a new VPC
- Launch a new EC2 Instance
- Create an AWS Connector in Alkira
- Create an Internet Connector in Alkira
- Provision a Palo Alto Firewall in Alkira
- Onboard a Palo Alto Firewall in IAG
- Generate a Palo Alto Configuration using Jinja2
- Push a configuration to a Palo Alto Firewall using IAG
