• An Easy to use, automated environment to code in
• A platform to leverage the ecosystem and refactor existing
apps
• A Complete continuous integration suite to test my apps
• One environment to work with all the Network programmability
technologies – Device APIs, Controllers, containers, DevOps tools..
• A simulation environment to ensure high fidelity on deployment
• Test results that can be trusted in the real world
• Packaging tools for code deployment
