Modern organizations often operate environments that include multiple locations, connections and clouds, thus leading to networking complexity. Automating the deployment and configuration of these networking resources enables teams to manage infrastructure as code (IaC), deploy consistently across environments and improve agility while maintaining rigid security requirements. In a cloud native environment, administrators must rethink how they design networks for applications and services. They need to consider the dynamic provisioning and scaling of the resources that their applications use, how to communicate with those resources through service meshes and how to automate security for all components on the platform. To successfully implement…
