Going through learning.oreilly.com/library/view/c… from John Capobianco & Danny Wade, Chapter 7. Automated Network Documentation, never saw this as an application of pyATS! Sweet! Here is the show_platform from IOS_XR devices rendered using Markmap.

Heading to Cisco Live US in San Diego this year! Who am I going to see?! Cisco Insider Champion CiscoLive

Glad to be part of Cisco Insider Champion another year! #year5

Big news from InfluxData! I’ve been watching the progress of InfluxDB 3 over the past several months. Very cool to see it finally GA!

I'm very excited about the new Processing Engine with #InfluxDB 3. It allows you to execute Python code in InfluxDB on data ingest, on a schedule, or in response to an HTTP call. It also appears the plugin system will be replacing Telegraf in the future 😯. Check out more here:

I’m excited to be participating as a panelist. Come join us at #VANUG tomorrow!
