What is network operations? Network operations encompass all the activities required to implement, observe, and manage a network. Often centrally run from an internal or outsourced NOC (network operations center), this team is the control center for monitoring, troubleshooting, and maintaining complex hybrid network infrastructure, including servers, databases, firewalls, network components, and cloud. Successful NetOps ensure traffic that flows over the environments they manage is always available and fine-tuned for the requirements of each application and service their organizations deliver.

What is a network operations center (NOC)?

A NOC is the centralized management structure, often in a centralized facility, that brings IT professionals together with all of the technology required to support any network on a 24×7 schedule. It is the front-line operations hub for protecting organizations from network disruptions and failures.
