The Mother of All Network Architecture Frameworks - MONAF

 

In case You have been into the IP Networking Industry for long enough, You would have probably come across:

1. The Holy "OSI Model"
2. ISO Model
3. TCP/IP Model
4. RINA Model by John Day
5. Hour Glass Model by Micah Beck
6. SOS Model
7. OODA Loop for Security

While all of these models are helpful in some form and shape, They often help us answer some of the very few questions we generally have as Network Architects, Designers & Engineers but often lacks:

- A bird eye view of Network Architecture as a whole

- A layered approach to go deeper into details & nuts and bolts while still allowing abstractions to work to meet requirements of different audience

- Fill the gap between understanding of Network among - Business, Architects, Designers, Engineers

- Address both functional & Non-Functional requirements

- Work as a guiding compass to address - "Known Knowns", "Known Unknowns", "Unknown Unknowns"

- Stitching together all of the information in a more tangible & informed way

- Last but not least, helps understand your specific constraints beside looking at everything across its life cycle

If you have been there and often relying on your head to hold so much of information but yet unable to put it into a structural frame, You might just want to give this a try.

In the subsequent posts we will uncover different layers and that too 5 layers down in terms of details (From 10,000 feet to 100 feet journey)
