Automation and open networking, a journey in time, challenges and possibilities with our expert on the subject, Tore Anderson. A comprehensive talk about the development of automation of servers and networks.

With networks it is a different story, where progress has not been as fast and where devices traditionally have been proprietary. However, with projects like “Open Compute” and white box switches things have started to happen.
