Network Visibility Improvement for Prague Public Transport

This case study details how IP Fabric enhanced network visibility and reduced incident resolution time for the Prague Public Transport Company (DPP). Founded in 1897, DPP operates a vast network of trams, buses, and subway trains across Prague, serving millions of passengers daily. The company faced challenges with its network infrastructure, which was spread across 96 locations and lacked efficient visualization tools. Engineers relied on outdated methods such as custom scripts and manual data gathering, leading to increased downtime and operational inefficiencies. The implementation of IP Fabric provided a unified overview of the network, automated documentation, and improved team collaboration. It enabled quick access to network information and facilitated compliance checks, ultimately enhancing service quality. The case study outlines the strategic benefits of using IP Fabric, including improved budgeting and innovation planning, as well as the automation of configuration backups, which contribute to faster incident resolution and reduced service outages.
