Evolving Technologies

CBT Nuggets has you covered on the latest Evolving Technologies identified by Cisco Systems! Check out these critical topics covered in this upcoming course!

Cloud

  • Compare and contrast public, private, hybrid, and multicloud design considerations
    • Infrastructure, platform, and software as a service (XaaS)
    • Performance, scalability, and high availability
    • Security implications, compliance, and policy
    • Workload migration
  • Describe cloud infrastructure and operations
    • Compute virtualization (containers and virtual machines)
    • Connectivity (virtual switches, SD-WAN and SD-Access)
    • Virtualization functions (NFVi, VNF, and L4/L6)
    • Automation and orchestration tools (CloudCenter, DNA-center, and Kubernetes)

Network programmability (SDN)

  • Describe architectural and operational considerations for a programmable network
    • Data models and structures (YANG, JSON and XML)
    • Device programmability (gRPC, NETCONF and RESTCONF)
    • Controller based network design (policy driven configuration and northbound/ southbound APIs)
    • Configuration management tools (agent and agentless) and version control systems (Git and SVN)

Internet of things (IoT)

  • Describe architectural framework and deployment considerations for IoT
    • IoT technology stack (IoT Network Hierarchy, data acquisition and flow)
    • IoT standards and protocols (characteristics within IT and OT environment)
    • IoT security (network segmentation, device profiling, and secure remote)
