Itential + Alkira: Simplify & Automate to Optimize Multi-Cloud Networks

In this edition of Alkira’s Design Zone video series, Itential and Alkira partner up to showcase the powerful integration between the two platforms.

Alkira’s multi-cloud connectivity capabilities simplify the provisioning, operation, and management of multi-cloud networking, Then, Itential enables the entire network team to participate in automating across all their network domains, integrating with the tools and solutions they already have to orchestrate end-to-end processes. Organizations who leverage Itential and Alkira together can automate the deployment, management, and operations for cloud, on-prem, and virtual enterprise grade networks with end-to-end workflows.

This video walks through the integrated solution, first outlining the architecture and what it can help achieve before the second half showcases a deep dive demo. There, you’ll learn how to create an Itential automation workflow that includes:

  • Taking in data from an integrated, federated source to trigger the end-to-end automation.
  • Creating a new VPC.
  • Creating a new EC2 instance.
  • Creating and provisioning a new Alkira connector.
  • Provisioning and configuring a firewall.
  • Final steps for full branch connectivity.
