Event Details

In today’s rapidly evolving IT landscape, network automation has become a critical necessity rather than just a convenience. This shift replaces manual, error-prone processes with scalable, consistent, and repeatable automated workflows. With many different offerings, options, and vendor based solutions, it can be difficult to know where or how to start.

Join us on this FREE four-part course on Network Automation throughout the month of June. Starting on Thursday June 4th, and continuing every Thursday through June 25th, in a mixture of in-person and remote sessions, Arista will be hosting 2 ½ hour afternoon sessions focusing on the fundamentals of Network Automation. Earn “Summer Camp Badge” stickers for attending each course and completing the lab work. Earn all 4 badges (attend all 4 events) to earn one of Three event rewards.

Vendor-Agnostic Approach This 4-day course will leverage vendor-agnostic and no cost solutions such as Git, Visual Studio Code (VS Code), YAML, Jinja2, and Ansible. Because these open-source tools have massive, active communities, they offer broad vendor support that spans across multiple technology silos, including Network, Compute, Storage, Cloud, and Security.

Course Accessibility This course is designed to be highly accessible to engineers who have never done network automation prior. While previous coding experience is helpful, it is completely optional, as tools like Ansible, Jinja, and YAML use straightforward, human-readable syntax that makes it easy to get started. At the same time, the camp will provide powerful insights and additional tools, such as advanced templating, data modeling, and automated validation.
