Gluware
announced a series of new offerings and capabilities that will help network
engineers, operators and automation developers deliver network security,
AI-readiness, and performance assurance better, faster and more affordably,
using flawless intent-based intelligent network automation.
Firstly, Gluware is expanding its Gluware.ai product line
with the announcement of the GenAI-powered Co-Pilot for NetDevOps. This new
offering, which is the second Gluware.ai product, leverages generative AI to
exponentially accelerate do-it-yourself (DIY) network automation coding by up
to 100X, empowering teams to build better intelligent network automation faster
than ever before.
Gluware continues to expand the capabilities of its unified
intelligent network automation and orchestration platform for NetDevOps and is
introducing integrations with NetBox and GitHub. The NetBox integration allows
NetBox users to automate devices directly from their NetBox repository, while
the GitHub integration enables Gluware developers to build audits and
configuration models as part of their infrastructure-as-code CI/CD pipeline,
allowing for seamless collaboration with the GitHub community. These integrations
build upon recent Ansible and ServiceNow integrations and are part of an API
exchange and vendor ecosystem with over 200 integrations.
Central to Gluware's innovations is Gluware DIAL (Device
Interaction and Automation Layer), which revolutionizes how networks are
automated, using a unified intelligent API layer for multi-vendor networks to
enable hands-off network automation, full remediation, and near real-time
compliance auditing for configuration and security policy. For DIY, Gluware
DIAL replaces the need to write hundreds of scripts for thousands of devices
with a single intent-based data model and intuitive drag-and-drop navigation.
This groundbreaking approach enables flawless network automation, dramatically
reducing the time it takes to automate the networks while accelerating network
transformation.
"Today's networks need to be lightning fast, flawlessly
managed, and future-ready - not just IT networks, but IoT networks as well,"
said Jeff Gray, CEO, Gluware. "The future of business is intelligent, and the
foundation for that is a robust, adaptable, automated, and secure network. Our
DIAL technology, along with our new offerings, continues to shape and reinforce
this intelligent foundation, empowering enterprises to consistently raise the
bar in the face of unprecedented technological demands."
This sentiment is echoed by industry analysts, with Gartner
predicting in its latest Hype
Cycle for I&O Automation that 30% of enterprises will automate more
than half of their network activities by 2026, underscoring the growing
importance of network automation in the enterprise landscape.
Linux Command and Python in RPA and Simplified CLI
Commands
Gluware is also expanding its network RPA (Robotic Process
Automation) capabilities with native Python script integration and a new Linux
Command RPA task, enabling network teams to manage Linux-based network hardware
and servers directly from the Gluware platform using a powerful terminal.
Moreover, Gluware is bringing stabilization and
predictability to brownfield estates more easily and faster than ever. With
simplified command line interface (CLI) commands, Gluware lets users deploy CLI
configurations faster and more accurately. This complements Gluware's
industry-leading audit and discovery engine, which was previously announced
with the release of Gluware
5.4.
"Gluware's intent-based intelligent network automation,
featuring DIAL, is essential in today's always-on, highly complex network
environments," said Ernest Lefner, Chief Product Officer, Gluware. "We are
committed to putting these critical capabilities into the hands of as many
network teams as possible, empowering them to build and manage better, more
secure, AI-ready networks. Infrastructure failures aren't just inconvenient,
they're costly and damaging for organizations on every level. As an industry, we
can no longer afford to stand idly by and accept network incidents as normal.
We all need to do better and strive for Downtime
Zero."
