As an automation engineer, you're used to thinking about the network data itself: IP addresses, VLAN IDs, device configurations, BGP ASNs, and the like. These are the building blocks of your infrastructure, and you know them inside out. But the moment you

Nornir has been around for eight years, and has reached an interesting point in its life. The project now sees roughly 100,000 PyPI downloads a month. People run it across hundreds or thousands of devices. And it has continued growing despite relatively l

When an engineer joins a new company, learning the codebase is like drinking from a firehose. They're trying to understand naming conventions, architecture decisions, and the reasoning behind past trade-offs. Even if you do a fantastic job with onboarding

Running Infrahub at scale means more network data, more automation, more linked repositories, and more engineers making changes at the same time. As repositories, schemas, and datasets grow, the processing that follows a change-regenerating configurations

Infrahub doesn't ship with a fixed data model. The schema is yours to define-devices, services, addressing, and whatever else your infrastructure depends on, modeled the way your organization actually works. It's the most distinctive part of Infrahub, and

Even if you're not an engineer, you know how ubiquitous AI-driven development is. You've heard about Cursor's meteoric rise in popularity. You've seen the way people geek out about what they're building with Claude Code (so much faster than they could bef

An AI data center fabric isn't simply a collection of switch configurations. It's a connected design spanning hundreds of switches, thousands of interfaces, multiple layers of topology, and an addressing hierarchy that must remain consistent across every

Large, complex networks and data center infrastructure pose a scaling challenge for organizations trying to sustain sound automation. Effectively automating complex networks requires going beyond capturing and managing data about what exists and how it sh

You'd never make a change to your network without running it through ample checks first. But are you really checking everything? Even complex Python scripts that you continuously update, that rebuild your entire topology from scratch, have a blind spot: T

Infrastructure teams are increasingly using agents to help plan changes, answer dependency questions, and keep infrastructure aligned with intent. But that only works if the underlying data is connected, trustworthy, and rich enough for both engineers and
