For the past several years, NetBox, as an open source project, has been becoming the center of network automation projects around the globe. As a platform built to be the source of truth for multi-vendor and multi-domain networks, it is critical to understand the importance and role of data when embarking on a network automation journey. NetBox plays a key role in managing network data and the intended state of the network infrastructure. In the most recent NetBox survey, it was found that over 50% of respondents have been using NetBox for under a year while 40%+ of the respondents have been using NetBox for 2+ years. With the growth of NetBox and the overall community, Network to Code has partnered with the NetBox project to launch the very first NetBox Day!
NetBox Day will be a virtual conference fully dedicated to the NetBox project. You’ll get to hear from the maintainers on NetBox itself, key features, and the roadmap and from active users on how they’ve used NetBox in production.
