Network topology mapping is the process of mapping topological relationships between network components and establishing those relationships in the form of network diagrams. Network mapping helps visualize physical and logical connections between all elements and nodes, thus simplifying network management. A network topology mapper is a tool that helps perform network mapping effectively.

Building, testing and deploying software is a time-consuming process that many organizations aim to minimize by automating repeatable work wherever possible. To do so, many organizations are utilizing a continuous integration, continuous delivery (CI/CD) philosophy in combination with cloud native tools like Kubernetes to develop and deploy software at scale.

Any organization that’s keeping up with today’s sharp rise in business demands (or better yet, getting ahead of the game) is doing so by getting innovative and jumping at the chance to do things differently. They’re not relying on the old ways or trying to use their existing toolbox. Instead, organizations are looking to the newest technologies and means of adding efficiency to as many day-to-day functions as possible.
