We've been quiet for a while - but for good reason.

Behind the scenes, we've been building something that will fundamentally change how network professionals approach network troubleshooting, analysis, and operations.

Imagine having an expert-level network engineer available 24/7 - one that can instantly correlate data across multiple systems, identify root causes in seconds, and guide you through complex investigations.

Something big is coming to network operations - we're about to launch a breakthrough AIOps agent that brings intelligence, speed, and clarity to network operations like never before.

The future of network operations is almost here. Stay tuned.

Continuing our work behind the scenes, we recently sat down with Davian C. Litchmore, Director of Network Operations at Andrena, to talk about how ITcare became a trusted partner in their network operations journey.

In Part 1 of the interview, Davian C. Litchmore shares:

- What Andrena does and where they operate
- How ITcare delivered a cost-effective solution with around-the-clock access to skilled engineers
- And how we stood out during the evaluation process as the right-fit partner for their team

Whether you're scaling network operations or looking to extend your support coverage without compromising on expertise - this is a must-watch.

And this is just the beginning.
In upcoming parts, Davian C. Litchmore dives deeper into:

- The network challenges that used to keep him up at night
- How ITcare truly stood out from other providers
- The seamless integration with Andrena’s internal team
- Tangible gains in uptime, mean-time-to-repair, and engineer focus
- And what it really feels like to have proactive, 3 a.m. support that just works

We’re truly grateful to the Andrena team for their collaboration and professionalism throughout our partnership.

Watch Part 1 now - and stay tuned for more.

SNMP vs. Telemetry - What’s the future of network monitoring?

In the last few years, telemetry has become the hot topic in network monitoring. Streaming protocols like gNMI, gRPC, NETCONF, JSON-RPC, and others are changing the way we think about visibility and real-time data collection. It’s a huge leap forward compared to SNMP polling.

Telemetry Advantages:
• Near real-time updates
• Push-based model reduces polling overhead
• Granular, structured data
• Easier integration with modern observability stacks

But as always, the devil is in the details.

Different vendors support different telemetry protocols:
• Juniper Networks: native support for gNMI, JTI (Juniper Telemetry Interface), OpenConfig
• Cisco: model-driven telemetry with gRPC, gNMI, NetFlow, JSON
• Arista Networks: OpenConfig, gNMI, and EOS streaming telemetry via Kafka or gRPC

And even within the same vendor, only some platforms and OS versions support the full set of telemetry features. So unless your network is standardized across one vendor (which is rarely the case), you'll need a system that supports multi-vendor integration. And here lies the complexity.

In our experience working with companies of various sizes, we've yet to see a production environment where telemetry is fully adopted across all devices. There's always legacy gear or newer models with limited telemetry support.

This makes SNMP the "old but gold" protocol, still essential for most infrastructures.

So what does that mean for monitoring design?
You need an NMS (Network Monitoring System) that:
• Supports both telemetry and SNMP
• Can correlate data from mixed sources
• Offers scalable integrations across vendors
• Provides alerting, visualization, and historical analysis

We're curious to hear from the community:

How are you monitoring your network today?
• Are you moving toward 100% telemetry?
• Still relying on SNMP?
• Or maybe a mix of both?
• What tools do you use to ingest telemetry?
• How do you handle alerting and threshold logic?
• Have you found a monitoring solution that offers the “golden middle ground” a flexible transition path that allows gradual migration to telemetry without leaving SNMP behind?

Let’s open up the discussion
Drop your thoughts, share your stack, or tell us what worked (or didn’t) in your journey toward modern monitoring.

𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 - 𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐉𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 PAXIO

At ITcare, we don’t just operate networks we transform them. Over the past months, we've been working closely with PAXIO to modernize and optimize their network infrastructure through our 24/7 NOC Services and Professional Network Services, including architecture, engineering, and automation.
PAXIO’s network, like many rapidly growing service providers, evolved through acquisitions resulting in a diverse, high-potential but complex architecture. We were brought in to help bring structure, consistency, and long-term scalability.

𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐤𝐞𝐲 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐰𝐞’𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐨 𝐟𝐚𝐫:
🔹 Ensured all customer prefixes are advertised via BGP and that all traffic is now tunneled over MPLS (LDP).
🔹 Deployed a clean Route Reflector topology replacing the mesh of chained RRs with 3 centralized virtual RRs.
🔹 Unified ASN usage across the backbone, created RPKI/RIR records, and transitioned all IP transit and peering to a single PAXIO ASN giving full prefix visibility to all upstreams.
🔹 Optimized POPs by decommissioning redundant hardware cutting down unnecessary equipment and simplifying operations.
🔹 Standardized EVPL and L3VPN provisioning, phasing out legacy methods and aligning to a common service model (ongoing).
🔹 Reengineered their BNG platform to enable dynamic, scalable, RADIUS-based subscriber management (ongoing).
🔹 Began automation of provisioning, BGP peering, monitoring, troubleshooting, and service rollout (ongoing).

In addition, we’ve introduced a wide range of smaller but impactful enhancements from centralized user management and IGP/BGP fine-tuning to traffic engineering adjustments and performance optimizations across the board
It’s a transformation still in progress but the foundation is stronger than ever.

We’re proud of the outstanding work our engineers Ilie Ursachila, Nicolae Musteata, Ion Siretanu, Maxim Gatman, and the entire NOC team have accomplished in such a short time. Rebuilding a network from within and transforming it into a clean, resilient, high-performing, and most importantly, future-proof infrastructure, this is what we love most.

A big thank you to PAXIO, and especially to Phillip Clark and Nelson A. Martinez, for the trust and collaboration. Your feedback motivates us, and we’re excited for what’s next.

To all fast-scaling providers out there: if your network has grown faster than your design can keep up with we’d love to help.
