Abstract
Network observability and monitoring is an important responsibility of network operators. As an industry, we had settled on using SNMP as a protocol, with rrdtool to draw pretty lines. This has been changing though. New methods for observing your network have started popping up. One of those is gNMI.
In this talk I'll briefly introduce gNMI, compare it with SNMP, and then go into deployments, and pitfalls that will come up.
At the end, folks will hopefully have a better understanding of the evolving observability ecosystem, and be able to decide whether or not gNMI is the right call for their network.
