Zero Touch Processing vs Scripted Provisioning
Developers and network engineers should learn ZTP when managing large-scale infrastructure deployments, such as in data centers, cloud environments, or IoT networks, where manual configuration is impractical meets developers should learn scripted provisioning to automate infrastructure setup for development, testing, and production environments, especially in scenarios requiring frequent deployments or scaling. Here's our take.
Zero Touch Processing
Developers and network engineers should learn ZTP when managing large-scale infrastructure deployments, such as in data centers, cloud environments, or IoT networks, where manual configuration is impractical
Zero Touch Processing
Nice PickDevelopers and network engineers should learn ZTP when managing large-scale infrastructure deployments, such as in data centers, cloud environments, or IoT networks, where manual configuration is impractical
Pros
- +It is crucial for DevOps and NetOps teams to automate provisioning, ensure consistency, and accelerate time-to-service, especially in scenarios involving frequent device rollouts or updates
- +Related to: network-automation, infrastructure-as-code
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Scripted Provisioning
Developers should learn scripted provisioning to automate infrastructure setup for development, testing, and production environments, especially in scenarios requiring frequent deployments or scaling
Pros
- +It is crucial for implementing Infrastructure as Code (IaC) principles, reducing configuration drift, and improving collaboration between development and operations teams
- +Related to: infrastructure-as-code, configuration-management
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Zero Touch Processing if: You want it is crucial for devops and netops teams to automate provisioning, ensure consistency, and accelerate time-to-service, especially in scenarios involving frequent device rollouts or updates and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Scripted Provisioning if: You prioritize it is crucial for implementing infrastructure as code (iac) principles, reducing configuration drift, and improving collaboration between development and operations teams over what Zero Touch Processing offers.
