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 Pica8 AmpCon?

Enterprise networks, including campus setups, remote locations, and data center infrastructures, are moving away from multiple Cisco Catalyst switches in favor of PicOS Software Switches, leveraging hardware from Dell and Edgecore. The Pica8’s AmpCon™ Network Controller facilitates and automates switch deployments through a cohesive graphical user interface, offering a compelling alternative to Cisco DNA Center. This shift not only provides greater operational flexibility but also results in significant cost savings, a factor that appeals to executives at the C-suite level. As a versatile network management tool, AmpCon manages the lifecycle of numerous open network switches across enterprise campuses and branch or retail office access networks. The platform is equipped with a comprehensive suite of server-based tools, enabling organizations to remotely install, configure, and provision hundreds or even thousands of PicOS Software Switches on white box hardware. Additionally, AmpCon distinguishes itself as the first solution to seamlessly blend both advanced proprietary technologies and open standards, affording network operators exceptional visibility and control over their networking infrastructure. This forward-thinking strategy guarantees that enterprises can respond to evolving technological demands with unmatched agility. Ultimately, the transition to AmpCon is not just a technological upgrade; it represents a strategic shift towards a more adaptable and cost-effective networking future.
