What is Pica8 PICOS?

The distinctive PICOS open NOS, designed with tightly integrated control planes, offers network operators accurate and non-intrusive visibility into their enterprise applications, facilitating comprehensive and flexible traffic analysis as well as timely attack prevention. When it comes to implementing zero-trust networking and creating software-defined perimeters, PICOS is recognized as the leading solution. Our cutting-edge open network operating system seamlessly works with open switches that feature interfaces between 1G and 100G, sourced from a wide array of Tier 1 manufacturers. This extensive licensing package provides unmatched support for enterprise capabilities found in today's market. It also includes the Debian Linux distribution, maintaining an unaltered kernel to maximize DevOps programmability. In addition, the Enterprise Edition is further enhanced with AmpCon, an automation framework leveraging Ansible, which combines Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP) with the Open Network Install Environment (ONIE), thereby simplifying the deployment and management of open network switches across the enterprise. Such sophisticated functionalities empower organizations to maintain not only operationally efficient networks but also robust defenses against continuously emerging threats. As a result, businesses can confidently navigate the complexities of modern networking while ensuring their infrastructure remains fortified.

What is SONiC?

NVIDIA introduces pure SONiC, an open-source, community-focused, Linux-based network operating system that has been enhanced within the data centers of prominent cloud service providers. By adopting pure SONiC, businesses can overcome distribution limitations and fully harness the benefits of open networking, supported by NVIDIA's vast expertise, thorough training, detailed documentation, professional services, and ongoing support to facilitate successful deployment. Moreover, NVIDIA provides extensive backing for Free Range Routing (FRR), SONiC, Switch Abstraction Interface (SAI), systems, and application-specific integrated circuits (ASIC), all integrated into a single platform. Unlike conventional distributions, SONiC enables organizations to remain independent from a sole vendor for updates, bug fixes, or security improvements. This independence allows businesses to simplify management tasks and make use of their current management tools across their data center activities, leading to improved operational efficiency. Consequently, the flexibility of SONiC not only enhances network management but also empowers organizations to adapt to their specific needs, making it an invaluable choice for those aiming for effective network oversight.
