When he saw members of the tech community struggling, he knew what he had to do. Quinn Snyder shares the story of how—and why—he made the choice to become a senior technical advocate and what his new role means for the Cisco Learning and Certifications community.

This sandbox allows developers to test the latest platforms and APIs that they can then use to manage their modern datacenter fabrics. See how Nexus Dashboard can help reduce workload and toil in your day-to-day.

Increase your NetDevOps knowledge. The new Learning Track helps you understand datacenter fabric automation with DataCenter Network Manager (DCNM). You'll become familiar with DCNM, explore the APIs, and then use Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tooling to perform typical fabric operations.

See how Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools provide a quick way to orchestrate configuration across one or more domains.

Learn the basics of using HashiCorp’s Terraform to apply configuration changes to a REST-driven network controller. And how to use Ansible to build a generic set of configurations across multiple device types to baseline device configuration compliance.

See how HashiCorp's Consul-Terraform-Sync helps keep applications secure as they are dynamically scaled across the network infrastructure. Check out the new learning lab, sandbox, and code repo.

Learn how infrastructure developers can utilize the standard pull request (PR) to perform Terraform actions (plan, apply) and drive infrastructure automation at the drop of a git push.

Read how your team can acquire and retain the knowledge, skills, and confidence to successfully implement your network automation initiatives.
