rif. B9781835081068 — Paperback / softback. New. Architect build and leverage flexible network monitoring solutions to empower operations within a network automation strategy while providing a structured explanation of the main components and examples to implement them Key Features Define a composable network observability stack with numerous practical implementations Utilize the network observability stack to address real network operation challenges Learn about obtaining various data types programmatically and how to utilize them to enhance a network automation strategy Book DescriptionNetwork monitoring has been central in network operations for decades. However with the advent of network softwarization and the increasing importance of networks in sustaining IT services expectations and requirements for network monitoring have risen to a new level termed network observability. The first challenge to overcome is the monolithic approach transforming it into a flexible composable stack where multiple tools can collaborate. Each tool contributes its unique features enhancing scalability and adaptability. In this book you will learn how to effectively monitor analyze and optimize network performance and reliability. This involves gaining a deep understanding of the tools techniques and best practices for collecting and processing network data setting up monitoring and alerting systems and visualizing network performance metrics. By addressing these aspects network operators can proactively identify and resolve network issues reduce downtime improve user experience and align network operations with business objectives. By the end of this book you will understand how to architect implement and utilize a modern network observability solution through hands-on experience.What you will learn Learn how network observability improve network operations Understand the main components of a network observability stack Implement a complete solution using Telegraf Prometheus and Grafana Identify multiple available solutions and their relevance to the stack Use network observability to empower business decisions How to orchestrate the solutions to simplify managing the stack Who this book is forThis book is intended for all network engineering roles such as network analysts administrators architects security personnel support staff and managers working in both on-premises and cloud environments who are tasked with implementing or using network monitoring solutions. All of these roles will benefit from understanding what can be achieved through the integration of network observability within a network automation strategy. Basic programming knowledge in Python and Go familiarity with networking concepts and a basic understanding of Docker containers for the lab scenarios. paperback
