Gluware Applications
Code-free network automation application suite for rapid and secure enterprise network automation
Get to Know the Gluware Intelligent Network Automation Applications
Gluware is an application suite that runs on Gluware Control—the command center for deploying, operating, and scaling automation across complex, multi-vendor environments. It combines an orchestration engine with integrated apps for discovery, compliance, lifecycle operations, and workflow automation—so teams can automate confidently without stitching together a dozen tools.
1. Discover devices and build inventory
2. Standardize through auditing and OS image management
3. Remediate and implement standard configurations
4. Validate network state and topology
5. Self-Operate through orchestrated end-to-end workflows across systems
Gluware Enables Enterprise Network Operators to Progress to Self-Operating
How Gluware is Differentiated
Built for brownfield + multi-vendor reality
At the core is DIAL™ (Device Interaction and Automation Layer)—Gluware’s multi-vendor abstraction that enables automation and auditing across 55+ network operating systems.
Intent-based, data-model-driven automation (safer changes)
Gluware Control emphasizes data-model-driven orchestration, “declarative provisioning” that reads current state and applies only necessary changes, plus governance/security controls (RBAC, auth integrations, logging, etc.).
Faster time-to-value with pre-built apps + integrations
Instead of building everything from scratch, teams start with production-ready apps (discovery, drift/audit, OS mgmt, workflows) and extend via pre-built integrations (e.g., Ansible, NetBox, StackStorm; Linux/Python execution inside workflows).
AI-ready automation with validation + control
For customers adopting AI, Gluware Titan positions an “AI-powered, intent-based” approach with an Intelligent MCP Server and DIAL-powered validation for predictable, auditable actions.
Gluware Network Automation Applications Powered by DIAL Technology
Application suite overview
Platform foundation
Gluware Control (Platform)
Central command center for the application suite—available cloud or on-premises—with orchestration, RBAC, multi-tenancy, logging, scheduling, and integrated apps for managing multi-vendor, multi-domain environments.
DIAL™ (Device Interaction and Automation Layer)
Core multi-vendor interaction layer that adapts/binds infrastructure elements for hands-off automation, remediation, and near real-time compliance auditing; supports 55+ OS platforms.
Discovery, Inventory, and Visibility
Device Manager
Auto-discovers network devices at enterprise scale and builds a high-resolution inventory database designed to accelerate code-free automation.
Topology
Visualizes your network using discovery data, scaling from global views down to device connectivity, with navigation from inventory into topology.
Dashboard
Pre-seeded, customizable dashboards for admin and app-specific views, with widgets for counts, tables, schedules, notes, RSS, web pages, and more.
Data Explorer
Build user-defined report templates on Gluware data, plus pre-built reports with export options (CSV/PDF/JSON) for custom visibility across apps.
Configuration and Compliance
Config Model Editor
Rapidly onboards existing network features for automated configuration/change management across CLI devices and API endpoints using vendor adapters to read the current state.
Config Drift & Audit
Monitors configuration state, detects drift, and surfaces audit/compliance issues—providing the feedback loop to identify unauthorized changes that may require remediation.
Lifecycle operations
OS Manager
Designed to reduce the risk and complexity of network OS/firmware upgrades—helping teams execute highly coordinated changes more safely and repeatably.
Workflow and Process Automation
Workflows
Uses pre-built or customer-defined workflows to streamline day-to-day operational processes with no programming—helping reduce human error and improve agility.
Network RPA
No-code, end-to-end process automation (workflows) built from pre-built task-level operations across Gluware apps and external integrations (e.g., ITSM, IPAM, monitoring).
Integrations and extensibility
Service Connectors
Pre-built integrations with common service-layer systems used in NetOps (ITSM, CMDB, DDI, etc.) to avoid building/maintaining integrations from scratch.
Pre-built Integrations
Out-of-the-box integrations that extend workflow automation—examples include Ansible playbook execution within Network RPA, Linux/Python command/script execution, NetBox data sync, and StackStorm packs.
GluAPI
Published API to programmatically access Gluware capabilities and integrate Gluware automation/orchestration into broader ecosystems.
Gluware IDE
The Gluware IDE is a low-code development environment that enables teams to customize, extend, and integrate Gluware with speed and control. By combining JSON-based data modeling with JavaScript business logic, users can easily build, test, and deploy custom network features, Network RPA tasks, and third-party API integrations.
AI
Gluware Titan (Gluware.ai)
AI-powered automation positioning with agentic AI + MCP integration, emphasizing validation, governance, and DIAL-powered assurance for safe, auditable outcomes.
