#038: Zero to Hero Network Automation Journey with Anthony House and Christian Bray, Part 2

Network Automation Nerds Podcast

Hello and welcome to Network Automation Nerds podcast.

Today on the show, we will continue our conversation with Anthony and Christian about going from completely manual network operation to robust, usable, and practical network automation in 2 short years. Why is this relevant to you? Because they have a relatively simple formula that can be reused by other organizations, large and small.
In part 2 of the talk, we will focus on the second phase of their operations and the second big project they worked on. They will also share the lessons learned, differences in the architecture, and looking ahead to what is next.

I am super excited to have Anthony and Christian on the show again. Let’s dive right in!
