I’m disappointed to learn that no one is advocating for the video game based telemetry management tool presented at AusNOG years ago.

"Real-time network monitoring using 3d game engine :: Warren Harrop, Swinburne University”

Shame the presentation isn’t shared, it was a great talk:

You don’t have to be a hyperscaler with custom everything to consume better quality, higher resolution data.

While I'm well aware of the model driven YANG functionality that's been talked about for ages, I honestly can't say I know anyone who's using it.  Perhaps hyperscalers have made the move from SNMP, but has the average network operator?
