Dell EMC Networking OS10
Transform your network

Overview:

The Dell EMC Networking OS10 Enterprise Edition is a Network Operating System supporting multiple architectures and environments. The OS10 solution is designed to allow multi-layered disaggregation of network functions. OS10 contributions to Open Source provide users freedom and flexibility to pick their own 3rd party networking, monitoring, management and orchestration applications, while OS10 Enterprise Edition bundles an industry-hardened networking stack featuring standard L2 and L3 protocols over well accepted Northbound interfaces like CLI, SNMP & REST. The Switch Abstraction Interface (SAI) and Control Plane Services (CPS) abstraction layers provide disaggregation at the Network Processing Unit (NPU), as well as for the software applications written on top of linux kernel.

Feature rich OS10 Enterprise Edition software allows users to build fault-tolerant, scalable Layer 2 and Layer 3 network fabric designs. Modular and disaggregated, yet offered as a single-binary, OS10 offers integration with a variety of management and monitoring tools to help orchestrate network updates and fabric life-cycle management.

Hardware abstraction through common APIs

Dell EMC Networking OS10 is a transformational software platform that provides networking hardware abstraction through a common set of APIs so you can:

• Enable consistency across data center compute and network resources
• Incorporate compatibility into your existing network operations
• Enhance programmability across your environment

Consistency across resources

Enable consistency across compute and network resources for your system operators (SysOps) groups that require server-like manageability. Dell EMC Networking OS10 helps you:

• Extend the Linux® experience from compute to network
• Lower costs with common operations for optimizing and maintaining compute and network infrastructure
• Simplify network management, orchestration and automation using common tools

A simple transition to open networking

Easily leverage your existing network configuration. Dell EMC Networking OS10 incorporates traditional networking integration so you can:

• Take advantage of existing network configurations and designs
• Allow network operators to continue using command line interface commands and scripts
• Assist your operations staff in transitioning from multiple groups to just one at their own pace as the network migrates to full open networking disaggregation

Full programmability

Enhance the integration and control you allow your development and operations (DevOps) teams, down to identifying an object as an individual, manageable entity within the platform:

• Leverage a large ecosystem of native Linux applications and automation tools to optimize your data center networks
• Drive innovation with unmatched levels of integration capability and behavioral control
• Future-proof your network investments with Open Compute Project compliance
