SAN JOSE, Calif., April 24, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Veriflow today announced that Co-Founder and CTO Brighten Godfrey will speak at the upcoming Interop ITX 2018 conference’s Network Transformation Summit. His session, “Intent-Based Verification: Taking a Practical Step Towards Autonomous Networks,” will explore how an emerging mathematical approach yields a new level of awareness of network-wide state and whether the network is meeting its business goals. With an eye towards enabling more “self-driving” networks, Dr. Godfrey will discuss intent-based verification technology, practical use-cases that improve the resilience and security of existing complex environments, and how networking teams can lay a foundation for future network automation. Interop 2018 is taking place at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, April 30 – May 4, 2018.
What: The Interop Network Transformation Summit, a two-day program hosted by IDC senior analyst Brandon Butler, features a set of visionary speakers exploring the needs facing modern networks that support technology-centric businesses and how these networks can prepare for emerging challenges. The Summit is part of Interop ITX, the industry’s most trusted independent conference focused on Full Stack IT education for technology leaders. The event continues the 30 years Interop has dedicated to providing IT decision makers with a trusted environment to learn, collaborate and uncover new strategies and solutions they need to lead their teams and their businesses through constant change and disruption.
