3 in 1 Pipeline: Cross-Domain Automation with Catalyst Center, FTD, and NDFC using NetDevOps Approaches
Session abstract:
Building a cross-domain automation pipeline with multiple domains can help simplify and speed up the process of configuration deployment from the development to the production environment.
In this lab session, you will work to build the bridge between different domains and include all in an automated CI/CD pipeline using a variety of NetDevOps tools.
Using CI/CD practices can also help reduce the risk of human error and improve the overall quality of configuration deployments.
During the lab execution, you will:
- Getting started with NetDevOps tooling
- Push configuration to all 3 domains using Ansible or Terraform
- Validate your code and use automated testing to verify results with Robot Framework
- Build CI/CD pipelines using GitLab
- Secure your secrets using HashiCorp Vault
- Create your own Docker container
- Get all the code as a takeaway
Together with my friends Joerg Schultz and Geiner Miranda we delivered the lab session.
