IP Fabric

IP Fabric is a vendor-neutral network assurance platform within the Monitoring Software space that automates end-to-end discovery, verification, visualization, and documentation across large enterprise networks, helping reduce operational effort and cost while strengthening security and efficiency. By building a flexible, model-based representation of the network, it delivers both an overall view and detailed insight into network state, enabling detection of critical violations, policy compliance issues, and business-impacting inefficiencies. The resulting contextual data helps improve network operations, address gaps in existing tooling, and supports a gradual move toward self-driving network environments.

The platform is designed to assist engineering and operations teams, providing a foundation for migration and transformation initiatives and supporting use cases such as network visibility and assurance, security assurance, automation, multi-cloud networking, and troubleshooting. Its design is informed by extensive hands-on networking experience, focusing on the daily needs of engineers while also benefiting leadership, security, and cloud teams. IP Fabric is built to integrate with and extend current tooling ecosystems, enhancing their value and enabling new interaction patterns through APIs and data sharing. Adoption typically progresses through three stages—baseline, operate, and innovate—starting with automated discovery for deep visibility, then using the data to optimize workflows and enable self-service for non-network teams, and ultimately applying data intelligence and automation to maintain an intent-aligned, transparent network that supports ongoing innovation.
