To normalize the diversity of networking environments across both the Netflix and Partner networks and create a consistent and controllable computing environment on which users can run regression and Netflix application certification testing for devices, the Partner Infrastructure team provides a customized embedded computer called the Reference Automation Environment (RAE).

As such, it is very critical to be able to keep device information up to date for device tests to work properly.
