Carl Lebsack, Google
Carl is a Software Engineer and Technical Lead for network streaming telemetry infrastructure at Google and a member of the OpenConfig project. Previously he worked in the Microarchitecture Research Lab at Intel, the High Performance Computer Benchmarking Center at IBM and the Radio Base Station Group at Motorola. He holds BS and MS degrees in Computer Engineering from the Illinois Institute of Technology and a PhD in Computer Engineering from Iowa State University. His first exposure to computer networking was a 1200 baud modem on a Commodore 64 which he still owns.
Rob Shakir, Google
Rob works in Google’s Network Architecture team where he focuses on the software surrounding the network – particularly, defining interfaces to network devices suitable for the needs of modern network operations, and evolving on/off-box control planes. Prior to Google, Rob contributed to the engineering and architecture teams running a number of global networks, including BT’s private and Internet backbones, Cable&Wireless’ L2/L3VPN network, and running an SRE team for a unified communications provider. Rob contributes to open source projects and standards bodies – co-leading the OpenConfig project, and co-chairing the SPRING (segment routing) working group in the IETF.
Abstract Modern networks have significantly outpaced the monitoring capabilities of SNMP and command-line scraping. Over the last three years we at Google have been working with members of the networking industry via the OpenConfig.net effort to redefine network monitoring. We have now deployed Streaming Telemetry in production to monitor devices from multiple vendors. We will talk about the experience and highlight the open source components we are providing to the community to accelerate industry-wide adoption.
