Source of truth for open infrastructure management with open-source netbox
summary
Viettel runs NetBox as the single source of truth and builds an auto-discovery service that finds subnets, IP ranges, VRFs, IP addresses, compute hosts and VMs and writes them into NetBox automatically. The system feeds Prometheus and Ansible integration and napalm to drive monitoring and automation, scales to thousands of compute hosts in production, and extends NetBox with API and data-enrichment hooks so discovered items are validated and usable for alerting and orchestration.
