Gluware expands network automation platform with AI copilots, GitHub integration
The developer-focused AI copilot assists in writing code, generating JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) structures for configuration modeling and audits. Lefner explained that Gluware has a wrapper around JSON called “J types and jnibs” that allows developers to construct tasks and integrate with other parts of the Gluware platform. The JSON-based wrapper enables developers to leverage standard JSON-based interfaces, rather than having to use Gluware’s GUI exclusively.
Gluware gets into GitOps with GitHub integration
Infrastructure as code (IaC) is an increasingly popular way for organizations to manage operations. One of the common approaches is known as GitOps, where a Git code repository is used as a central location for configuration data.
Gluware is now advancing its GitOps capabilities with a GitHub integration. This integration enables a GitOps model, allowing for more automated and version-controlled infrastructure management. Organizations can now store and manage their Gluware-related code alongside other infrastructure code, improving consistency and compliance.
“The goal is to be able to allow organizations to store their code [and] manage their code, especially from a compliance perspective, in a centralized location,” he said. “We’re already infrastructure-as-data right out of the box, so this is really about getting into the infrastructure-as-code pipeline.”
NetBox integration brings in more network attributes
Gluware is also adding an integration with the increasingly popular NetBox tool, which is an open-source-based technology for documenting and modeling networks.
There are many Gluware customers that use NetBox already, according to Lefner. He commented that NetBox has a powerful technology and acts as a “source or truth” for network configuration. Gluware doesn’t natively store all the same network attributes as NetBox, and there have been Gluware customers that wanted to be able to use some of those attributes to make automation decisions.
