Hi Tobias and Beni, Pavel here, co-founder of IP Fabric, the Automated Network Assurance Platform for the Enterprise Networks. We're solving for the problem that you're describing, albeit in a more deterministic way, by modeling the entire enterprise network infrastructure. There are also competitors in the valley already - Forward Networks. While we welcome the competition, and while I am curious how you are solving for such a noise coming from the variety of networking products, I must say that you could have chosen a name that is copying us a little bit less.
Hi Pavel. Thanks for your comment and for sharing your perspective! We indeed believe both IP Fabric and ForwardNetworks follow promising approaches. A key difference is that we are focusing on a broader range of data sources (including NetFlow, SNMP, BGP, etc) and therefore can also support a live view of a given network.
Regarding the variety, we agree that network data sources suffer from a lot of subtle variety, which can be really frustrating especially because this variety makes it hard to access very valuable information. This is our main motivation to integrate LLMs, as a powerful tool that can naturally handle subtle variety.
Regarding the name, it was not our intention to copy or imitate. We chose "NetFabric" because we felt it accurately represented our vision of creating a seamless, integrated network monitoring solution that weaves together diverse network data sources.

I see no way to try this, I only see a contact form.
(I can't even figure out what it's supposed to be, there's so many buzzwords)
