Overview | Enterprise SONiC Distribution by Edgecore

It is a hardended, open distribution of SONiC (Software for Open Networking in the Cloud) which runs on Edgecore Open Networking switches. The SONiC Community is led by Microsoft and many key players, including Edgecore, to deliver a robus and proved software infrastructure to enable customer to build highly portable, scalable data center networks. Edgecore's SONiC distribution has been further tested and hardened to ensure production-ready deployment on Edgecore open networking platforms. Each release is based upon the latest community SONiC release to allow customers to work with an open community while also having confidence that the branch used for their deployments is robust and supportable. Edgecore's SONiC distribution is validated with a variety of optics and cables delivered from Edgecore as well as industry sources. This ensures that the overall system - switch hardware, NOS and connectivity are proven to work together, removing concerns about platform level interoperability.
