Enterprise SONiC by Broadcom®

Unlock the agility of hyperscale networking for your enterprise.

Enterprise SONiC by Broadcom® bridges the gap between open-source innovation and carrier-grade reliability. Built on a hardened version of the community-driven SONiC project, this commercial offering leverages the power of StrataXGS merchant silicon to deliver a container-based, fully programmable network architecture.

As organizations move away from proprietary black boxes, Enterprise SONiC provides a standardized Linux-based foundation that scales from Data Center spines down to the Campus edge. Whether you are deploying a standard Layer 3 CLOS fabric, a complex VXLAN/EVPN overlay, or a Data Center Interconnect (DCI), this solution ensures consistency across your entire infrastructure.

  • Unified Manageability: Streamline operations with a framework that supports industry-standard CLI, REST, and gNMI APIs.
  • Deep Visibility: Utilize advanced silicon-driven telemetry, including Buffer Statistics Tracking (BST) and Inband Flow Analyzer (IFA).
  • Comprehensive Automation: Accelerate deployment with Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) and native support for Ansible and Chef playbooks.
