Question

Explanation

This question tests understanding of NetDevOps philosophy - specifically how it reframes network changes from high-risk events into routine, repeatable operations by applying DevOps CI/CD principles to network infrastructure.

Approach. The three blanks follow a logical NetDevOps narrative: (1) 'network' - NetDevOps treats changes to the network as normal, expected activities rather than exceptional risks; (2) 'testing' - a defined CI pipeline ensures changes are validated automatically before reaching production; (3) 'deploying' - automated deployment pipelines (CD) push validated changes consistently and repeatably. Together, the sentence reads: organizations see changes in the network as routine, with a well-defined process for testing and deploying network changes. This mirrors core DevOps tenets (small, frequent, automated releases) applied to network infrastructure via Infrastructure-as-Code, version control, and pipeline automation.

Concept tested. NetDevOps core philosophy - applying DevOps principles (routine changes, CI/CD pipelines, automated testing and deployment) to network infrastructure management, transforming network changes from risky manual events into small, automated, repeatable operations.
