Let’s talk sources of truth for network automation today. You okay with that? Excellent, glad to have you on board for this conversation with Jason Edelman and John Anderson of NetworkToCode.

We’re going to discuss a Nautobot, an open-source software tool that can serve as a network source of truth for automation. If you’ve used NetBox, Nautobot will have a rather familiar feel.

We discuss:

* How Nautobot differs from NetBox

* Using Nautobot with Python and Ansible

* Nautobot use cases including source of truth, an app platform, and for automation

* Major features

* Architecture recommendations

* Nautobot limitations

* What’s on the roadmap
