At the Network Automation Forum's #AutoCon2 I spoke about using large language models in network operations

If you're skeptical, or perhaps interested but have questions, this talk can help get you started on your journey to integrate LLMs into your ITOps workflows

Better late than never 🙂 Here's my slightly tardy coverage of the Network Automation Forum #Autocon2 event. I think this conference is an imperative for the network engineering community, even if you aren't up to your neck in the automation deep end (yet). www.bitsinflight.com/autocon2-the...

#autocon2 last week, nary a week until #awsreinvent. No rest for the wicked. I'm doing a thing though! No AI, #sorrynotsorry

#AutoCon2 is in the books! Events like this remind me that the future is bright and automation is a gigantic part of the future of #NetworkEngineering

Thoughts on Autocon2, a 🧵

Last week I attended Autocon2, put on by the Network Automation Forum networkautomation.forum/autocon2.

As an extreme introvert, the non-stop interaction with various folks was absolutely exhausting, and today is the first day I feel vaguely human again.

Good morning.

Had a blast at #Autocon2. Met some amazing people and got to catch up with old coworkers. I've learned a ton and can't wait to learn more about automation.

First post on bluesky! Just got back from #AutoCon2 and people there told me this is where the cool kids hang out now?
November 25, 2024 at 2:19 AM
Good luck!

I've gotten a couple of what I would call decent nights of sleep. What would normally be enough, but only minimally helping with the #autocon2 deficit.
November 24, 2024 at 2:30 PM
First post! I'm currently learning to snowboard at Keystone after #autocon2. Finally got a good nights sleep.

Returned home from #Autocon2 in Denver last week, did everything right to beat jet lag, slept on the plane, stayed awake until EU bed time… it’s 2AM right now and wide awake 😳
November 24, 2024 at 12:51 AM
I'm still in transit back home from #Autocon2. (I stayed in Denver Friday night)

I'll have more to say in the future. For now: I'm extremely glad I went, got to visit with friends/colleagues, and connect with new folks.

Also, for those wondering, the "Open to Work" badge did its job very well.

AutoCon2 is over, and I have to say it was the most fun, and educational, conference I've been to in a long time. Lots to think about on the train ride home.
November 23, 2024 at 4:06 PM
The last 3 days have been a lot.

of.

fun.

And I do mean that sincerely. I was able to be a part of #autocon2 here in Denver. I've had a ton of great experiences, learning from and talking to some of the brightest people in the world of networking right now. More thoughts, so check my blog soon!

In case you were at autocon2 and didn't had enough technology this week, my interview on BMP (BGP monitoring protocol) implementation just came out.

With it you can kill some time on the way back home

So a bit of shameless plug 😄
