ONES Orchestration

Why do we need Network Orchestration?

Orchestration refers to tasks or actions required to achieve a set of objectives for your Network Infrastructure operations

A centralized application like ONES translates these objectives into a network configuration template, applies and monitors to validate the operational efficiency and functionality

Automated tasks are performed on your Network Fabric in a purposeful order and each step is verified for success before moving to the next
