    • cattle vs pets slide

    • “Networking equipment used to be separate hardware boxes that needed to be integrated in a lab for testing
      Most network labs today are still a group of carefully tended pets whose results cannot be reliably reproduced
      Modern networking is mainly done in software that can and should be checked into source control and replicated at any time
      Network servers should be treated like cattle, not pets”
