5 Benefits of Intent-Based Networking

If you look under the hood of an intent-based networking system (IBNS), you’d be crazy not to see it as the future. It’s really smart, really safe, and hardware agnostic — basically fixing most of the annoying little problems while satisfying the big requirements for the largest data centers. Luckily, it’s just the future. It’s here now (albeit in a limited capacity). But that’s about to change.

Intent-based networking systems (IBNS) will inspire a major shift in how networks are managed. Here are things you should know about intent-based networking.

Automating Processes and Keeping Data Secure…Naturally

First off, what are we talking about? What exactly is intent-based networking? A common analogy used to explain the technology is a self-driving car. You put in the destination, and instead of manually driving, the car makes all the turns, lane changes, starts at green lights, and stops to avoid collisions for you. All the decisions and granular moment-by-moment adjustments are controlled by the car’s computer. 

The Benefits of Intent-Based Networking

  1. Increased agility and availability. Gartner emphasizes this benefit and believes that IBN “can reduce network infrastructure delivery times to the business leaders by 50% to 90%, while simultaneously reducing the number and duration of outages by at least 50%.”
  2. Vendor-neutral — IBN will work across all devices from different providers
  3. Improved control and performance. As administrators input the defined intent, the software decides the best way to implement that intent across the network.
  4. Self-Service. This allows for real-time updates and monitoring.
  5. Security detection. Detects security issues in real-time.
