“We are excited to welcome Aviz to the Linux Foundation and the SONiC community, which is part of a strong ecosystem that supports the open networking stack, ” said Arpit Joshipura, General Manager, Networking, Edge, and IoT, the Linux Foundation. “As an open source NOS, SONiC was designed to bring fast innovation, collaboration, and reliability to the open networking community. Aviz’s support for enterprise adoption within the open-source ecosystem is a welcome addition to our continued growth.”
“In the last couple years, the networking industry has seen a huge surge in the adoption of SONiC, with pretty much every platform vendor rallying behind SONiC to support their customers across verticals and geographies (read the SONiC Forecast and Research Report),” said Alan Weckel of the 650 Group. “For an open-source NOS to have widespread appeal, it needs a robust community of developers and a strong support model. Aviz is delivering that support to the SONiC ecosystem.”

“Early users of SONiC often need access to the right tools, extra capacity, or additional expertise to troubleshoot and debug issues. When it comes to complex multi-vendor deployments, open-source software support can become a logistical nightmare”, said Gautam Agrawal, CPO of Aviz Networks. “Our goal is to make SONiC easily deployable on every single platform. So, we are thrilled to open our support channel to everyone in the ecosystem. Over the past 5+ years, our engineering team has amassed significant expertise in SONiC across multiple platforms. With strong partnerships and well-defined SLAs across all major Switch/ASIC vendors, we want to help the SONiC community improve user experience.”
