NetBrain Next-Gen 12 Updated

NetBrain Technologies announced platform enhancements that further integrate Agentic AI with intent-based automation to transform network operations.

This latest release in NetBrain’s Next-Gen 12 unlocks more AI-driven innovations to boost real-time observability and continuous network assessment. With a strong foundation of its live digital twin and new AI insights, enterprises can auto-discover devices and intents, build automations faster, and take advantage of industry-wide outage knowledge for a more resilient network.

“Integrating advanced network automation, with the power of new AI insights, into businesses’ IT environment helps their teams accomplish more with greater speed and efficiency,” said Song Pang, Chief Technology Officer at NetBrain. “It’s incredibly rewarding to see organizations transform their manual workflows and gain proactive observability to accelerate their outcomes.”

Further innovations include:

  • Continuous Assessment with Knowledge Library: Enhances auto-discovery capabilities for network devices and intents while the expanded Golden Engineering Studio adds a new Golden Assessment Library, providing pre-built templates of industry-wide knowledge from Cisco (Business Critical Service) and other trusted partners. These ready-to-use assessments – with customizable no-code creation options – enable organizations to leverage industry-wide best practices, real-time CVE visibility, and outage, breach, and change learnings to deliver actionable insights to protect their networks.
  • AI-Powered Network Insights: Combines Automation Insight (centralized automation console) and AI Insight (LLM+RAG-powered queries) as NetBrain Insight to deliver contextual, network-specific answers: from root-cause diagnostics to compliance and security validation – automating thousands of tasks in seconds.
  • Next-Gen Runbooks: Packages intent-based policies, CLI, network maps, AI insights, and documentation into containerized troubleshooting and change automated workflow templates – enabling one-click deployment and auto-remediation capabilities for complex network operations.
  • Kubernetes Support & Cloud-Native Expansion: Adds native Kubernetes discovery, topology mapping, and E2E path analysis alongside Azure Route Server support for hybrid environments.

NetBrain has also introduced the NetBrain Playground – a secure and fully customizable test environment that enables organizations to evaluate the capabilities of its no-code automation platform using their own network data, including the ability to generate a tailored network assessment in minutes.

According to Auvik's 2025 IT Trends Report, 60% of IT professionals feel at least moderately burned out on the job, with 43% stating that their workload is contributing to work stress. At the same time, many IT professionals are naming AI and machine learning as key areas they'd most like to upskill ...

Businesses that face downtime or outages risk financial and reputational damage, as well as reducing partner, shareholder, and customer trust. One of the major challenges that enterprises face is implementing a robust business continuity plan. What's the solution? The answer may lie in disaster recovery tactics such as truly immutable storage and regular disaster recovery testing ...

IT spending is expected to jump nearly 10% in 2025, and organizations are now facing pressure to manage costs without slowing down critical functions like observability. To meet the challenge, leaders are turning to smarter, more cost effective business strategies. Enter stage right: OpenTelemetry, the missing piece of the puzzle that is no longer just an option but rather a strategic advantage ...

Amidst the threat of cyberhacks and data breaches, companies install several security measures to keep their business safely afloat. These measures aim to protect businesses, employees, and crucial data. Yet, employees perceive them as burdensome. Frustrated with complex logins, slow access, and constant security checks, workers decide to completely bypass all security set-ups ...

In high-traffic environments, the sheer volume and unpredictable nature of network incidents can quickly overwhelm even the most skilled teams, hindering their ability to react swiftly and effectively, potentially impacting service availability and overall business performance. This is where closed-loop remediation comes into the picture: an IT management concept designed to address the escalating complexity of modern networks ...

In 2025, enterprise workflows are undergoing a seismic shift. Propelled by breakthroughs in generative AI (GenAI), large language models (LLMs), and natural language processing (NLP), a new paradigm is emerging — agentic AI. This technology is not just automating tasks; it's reimagining how organizations make decisions, engage customers, and operate at scale ...

In the early days of the cloud revolution, business leaders perceived cloud services as a means of sidelining IT organizations. IT was too slow, too expensive, or incapable of supporting new technologies. With a team of developers, line of business managers could deploy new applications and services in the cloud. IT has been fighting to retake control ever since. Today, IT is back in the driver's seat, according to new research by Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) ...

In today's fast-paced and increasingly complex network environments, Network Operations Centers (NOCs) are the backbone of ensuring continuous uptime, smooth service delivery, and rapid issue resolution. However, the challenges faced by NOC teams are only growing. In a recent study, 78% state network complexity has grown significantly over the last few years while 84% regularly learn about network issues from users. It is imperative we adopt a new approach to managing today's network experiences ...
