But networks have grown and evolved since those early days. Not only have they gotten larger and more complex, networks have also become ever more critical to our lives \u2014 and our businesses. This has ushered in an evolution of network operations as well.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7cc2\" class=\"pw-post-body-paragraph ko kp jc bn b kq kr ks kt ku kv kw kx ky kz la lb lc ld le lf lg lh li lj lk iv hj\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">The first glimmers of this evolution started in the service provider networks, which became larger and more critical earlier than other networks. In the internet service provider (ISP) and network service provider (NSP) world, it has been common to use scripts to manage portions of the network for at least a couple of decades. In many cases network devices lacked proper APIs and so the earliest scripts simply logged in and executed CLI commands. These scripts made the job of managing large networks much easier, but they were obviously not the ultimate pinnacle of NetOps technology&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/div><div style=\"text-align:center;\"><a
