The future of financial services involves staying ahead of risks and enabling new business opportunities. Get insights and best practices from Shane Jenkins, Senior Director, Data Center and Infrastructure Engineering, First Republic Bank, on how he and his teams are using Gluware intelligent network automation to address key priorities including configuration management, vulnerability management, lifecycle management, compliance, enhanced security, lowered operational costs, and more.

Ernest Lefner, Chief Product Officer, Gluware, will review their new product announcement and highlight the path to self-operating networks in an era of rapidly evolving enterprise needs. Lefner will discuss how no-code/low-code NRPA and NetDevOps provides the software ‘glue’ between API interfaces to progress from task-based automation to end-to-end event-based automation along with a demo from Michael Haugh, VP of Product Marketing.

See how NetDevOps is real and achievable using a drag-and-drop, no-code approach to build, test and operate workflows to automate processes in your infrastructure lifecycle management. Gluware provides a suite of no-code applications powered by an intelligent network orchestration engine supporting 30+ vendors along with the ability to integrate 3rd party APIs. In this POC, see how workflows can be built then run, scheduled or triggered for autonomous operations. A featured use case will perform drift detection and config remediation with ServiceNow approval integration and notification.

The Gluware Intelligent Network Automation platform is able to integrate programmatically with the CSNF framework to enable action through automated or manual responses to events. Gluware can provide standard out-of-the-box event remediation including, for example, a config drift detection, config audit, config change, or a more sophisticated response like lockdown or segmentation based on the notification type. In this demonstration, Gluware will showcase a triggered audit and remediation of the network, along with an update to an AWS ACL blocking the bad actors’ IP address.

In this session, Gluware will demonstrate how their process automation solution, Network RPA, can be programmatically integrated with the Kentik observability solution to implement an event-driven response to poor application performance. Based on the triggered event, Gluware will perform a drift detection and configuration remediation on the network.

In this demo performed for the ONUG O&A Showcase at the Spring 2022 event, Gluware showcased using Network RPA to perform autonomous network remediation. Gluware was integrated with Kentik observability solution which detected a network issue affecting Zoom and called Gluware N-RPA via a RESTful API call. The Gluware workflow ran a drift detection, then remediated the drift back to a good known configuration.

This demonstration for ONUG shows how Gluware can be programmatically integrated to perform an automated security response including config drift, config audit and security related config change – in this case updating an inbound network ACL entry on an AWS VPC to block a bad actor.
