Network Automation with David

Review of the Certified Associate: AI Infrastructure and Operations (NCA-AIIO) by NVIDIA Looking for an AI certification that isn’t mostly about LLMs, prompt engineering, or the latest generative AI hype? A lot of AI courses and certifications seem to start with the same topics: models, tokens, prompts, and chatbots. Useful subjects, sure, but not necessarily what you’re looking for if your day-to-day work is closer to infrastructure and operations. The NVIDIA NCA-AIIO takes a different route. It focuses on the infrastructure behind AI: GPUs, networking, data centers, deployment, monitoring, and operating AI environments.

Review of “AI Agents for Network Operations” by Sif Baksh Most network engineers don’t wake up thinking about tokens or context windows. We wake up thinking about why BGP is down, why an alert fired, and why the dashboard is green while the ticket says everything is broken. So when a book puts “AI Agents” and “Network Operations” in the same title, my first reaction is usually a quiet “here we go.” I’ve seen enough demos where AI gets bolted onto a workflow that a plain script already handled better.
