AI is rapidly transforming the future of network automation.  According to Gartner®, by the end of 2027, 80% of network automation platform vendors are expected to introduce agentic AI capabilities that enable probabilistic automation, up from less than 20% in early 2026. This will significantly change how enterprises approach operational scale, automation maturity, and infrastructure management.  As organizations transition from fragmented tools and manual processes, scalable platforms that integrate automation while preparing for future deterministic and probabilistic operations are becoming increasingly critical.  Access the full Gartner® Market Guide to explore key market trends and see how BackBox was recognized as a Representative Vendor.  Link in the comments
