Each SONiC release is based upon the the Community SONiC release while including fixes and enhancements to ensure customers have the confidence that the branch used for their deployments is robust and supportable.
 
In addition to test SONiC on the targeted Edgecore platforms desired for modern leaf-spine architectures, Edgecore further validates a range of optics & cables, ensuring the system level solution meets the performance and reliability goals required for today's data centers.
