Automation
It makes sense to automate network functions. This will save time and money and increase customer satisfaction.

Network Automation
This is great. I remember working with network engineers and when a network failure occured a network engineer had to be called in the middle of the night. The company had to wait for the employee to get dressed, drive to the office and the begin troubleshooting the problem. Automation will reduce the resolution time greatly.

Network Industry
I am curious to see how network automation will impact the network industry - network engineers, manager and other network industry staff. Will they loose their jobs because the demand for network engineers will decrease as automation of networks increases.

Re: Network Industry
Knowing Google, they may become so innovative that even with automation, network engineers would still have plenty to do. It's not like Google to get ahead and let off the gas. But that might not happen soon if it does at all.

Re: Network Strain
Network strain is definitely a problem. Another job I have is teaching online. My employer recently upgraded the entire platform. And while the format was great, it clearly hadn't been tested to handle any kind of strain. So over the weekend, when everyone was suddenly online at the same time for their classes, most of us struggled to get in and have/teach classes. It was a problem that ended up taking about 7 hours for them to fix. On the bright side, I got extra sleep and paid for it. Such is life with technology.

Re: Network Industry
@freehe - I don't really believe that anyone in tech will ever be truly replaced. They just may have to change their job skills to adapt to an ever changing market. If they aren't needed to check for bugs in a program, they may be needed to oversee security or write new programs. It's a job that will always need people, no matter how automated it gets. In my opinion, anyway.

Re: Network Industry
As all know here throughout TT, I have had my reservations and the need to maintain the sense of humanity has been at the heart of my deliberation. I hope you're right for the sake of the future--as there is massive displacement no matter what study one looks at and there lies the challenge.

Re: Network Industry
As I read this, my first reaction was : really--Yes they're innovative but wouldn't one think that they'd come up with something more than just--AUTOMATION?

Google's New Assistant
There go some of the jobs that humans were doing, I guess. But in the quest for efficiency, the "Google Assistant for Networking" tool that relies on intent-based networking technologies is something that Google needs to do.
