How we organize SONiC adoption for Enterprises
- An active player in the SONiC ecosystem, PLVision offers end-to-end open NOS adoption for our clients leveraging our coveted experience in low-level networking and SONiC community involvement to stay up to date with the latest developments:
- While customizing this popular OS, we focus on your business needs and provide a SONiC build on an optimal platform, which is easy to scale and integrate with third-party solutions.
- Instead of providing PLVision SONiC distributive, we customize the Community SONiC for your needs while ensuring further knowledge transfer, training, and support for your SONiC. This way, you can take full advantage of SONiC’s new functionality continuously added through the community’s efforts.
