TNO070: Spec Driven Design (SDD) for NetOps and NetEng
Lasse Haugen and Scott Robohn discuss Spec Driven Design at AutoCon 5, explaining how it helps NetOps and NetEng move from ad hoc experimentation to structured, reliable automation by defining clear specifications, practical use cases, and its impact on network engineering workflows.
MAIN POINTS
- Spec Driven Design provides a structured approach to network automation.
- The discussion defines SDD and its relevance for NetOps and NetEng.
- It highlights how SDD replaces chaotic experimentation with reliable workflows.
- The conversation examines SDD’s practical use cases and effects on NetOps.
TAKEAWAYS
- Clear specifications can make network automation more predictable and repeatable.
- NetOps teams benefit from shifting from trial-and-error to defined engineering processes.
- SDD offers a framework for improving reliability in network workflows.
- Understanding use cases helps teams apply SDD effectively in real operations.
