Integrating AI with Network Automation & Orchestration

Enhance network automation with AI-driven intelligence for predictive, adaptive, and autonomous operations.

AI and AIOps are revolutionizing network operations by enabling predictive insights, proactive decision-making, and autonomous actions. However, without automation, AI-driven recommendations remain just insights — unable to drive real operational improvements.

Itential seamlessly integrates AI and AIOps tools with network automation and orchestration, ensuring that AI-powered intelligence translates into real, safe, and scalable network actions.

Your Challenges

AI and AIOps solutions offer unique capabilities for deriving insights from large amounts of data. Implementing AI systems for use cases like predictive analytics and network forecasting has the potential to deliver transformative benefits.

However, AI and AIOps systems alone lack the contextual network understanding required to act on the insights they deliver. An AIOps solution will monitor network data streams to observe trends and draw conclusions, but these outputs don’t inform the system of the steps required to respond. For example, if an AI system predicts a traffic spike due to past trends, it will not then be able to perform the steps required to re-route some traffic in accordance with change controls, security, standards, etc.

Itential’s platform seamlessly combines AI and AIOps capabilities with network orchestration to enhance efficiency, reliability, and scalability in network operations. Users can incorporate the valuable insights AI systems deliver into workflows that can span all infrastructure and orchestrate the processes required to act on AI-powered insights.

Efforts to integrate AI into network operations often face key challenges:

Complex Network Environments: Managing multi-vendor, multi-cloud, and hybrid infrastructures increases operational complexity.
Reactive Operations: Traditional network management responds to issues only after they occur, leading to downtime and inefficiencies.
Data Overload: AI models generate vast amounts of data, making it difficult to extract and act on meaningful insights in real time.

To fully realize the benefits of AI-driven automation, organizations need a platform that bridges the gap between AI intelligence and actionable network orchestration.

HOW IT WORKS

The Itential + AI Integration Model

Itential’s architecture enables seamless integration between AI/AIOps systems and network automation through a structured three-layer model:

Northbound Integration Layer
Connects external consumers like NLP systems and AIOps platforms to Itential, translating high-level intents into executable workflows.

Orchestration Layer
The core of the Itential Platform, where workflows run, insights are applied, and AI analyzes execution data to optimize performance, throughput, and workload prioritization.

Southbound Resources Layer
Manages network resources and domains, leveraging AI/AIOps to optimize utilization, align performance with operational goals, and control costs.

This architecture ensures seamless communication between AI/AIOps tools and network automation processes, allowing for dynamic adjustments and continuous improvement.
