SAN JOSE, Calif., March 15, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Cavium, Inc.,
(NASDAQ: CAVM), a leading provider of semiconductor products that
enable intelligent processing for enterprise, data center, cloud,
wired and wireless networking, will demonstrate its XPliant
switches for Software-Defined Networking (SDN) at Open Networking
Summit (ONS) 2016.
ONS is the forum for service providers, enterprises, disruptive
and incumbent vendors, open source projects, leading researchers
and investors to discuss SDN and NFV developments and to shape the
future of the networking industry. ONS has united the SDN ecosystem
since its inception - bringing service providers, data center
operators, engineers and the groundbreaking vendors that serve them
together with the newest advancements in SDN and NFV.
Cavium's XPliant Ethernet switch family targets applications in
cloud / enterprise data centers and service provider
infrastructure, for both top-of-rack and backbone applications.
XPliant Packet Architecture (XPA) enables very high level of table
flexibility and extensible header support without any compromise in
throughput. XPliant family of Ethernet switches offers centralized
shared packet buffer architecture to absorb the large bursts. The
combination of leading performance and remarkable flexibility is
attractive across all the segments. These highly configurable
Ethernet switches which provides bandwidth from 1Tbps to 3.2Tbps in
monolithic silicon supports 1G, 10G, 25G, 40G, 50G and 100G
interfaces. This family of switches also provides connectivity
solutions for embedded applications.
Cavium will be showcasing the various open source software
running on the XPliant based platforms at ONS 2016.
OpenSwitch is an open source, community-led Linux-based
network operating system, launched by Hewlett Packard Enterprise
and other industry leaders in October
2015, optimized for the scale and architecture requirements
of modern next-generation data center networks.
OpenXPS is Open APIs for the XPliant Programmable Switch open
source software which map the XPliant Software Development Kit
(XDK) rich feature-set to an open software interface enabling
integration of custom applications on the extensible XPliant switch
hardware platforms.
Facebook Open Switching System ("FBOSS") is open source software
for Facebook data center that consists a daemon that programs and
controls the ASIC.
Switch Abstraction Interface (SAI) enables networking software
to be written independent of the switch silicon used. This allows
customers and systems developers to write their software and
independently pick the best switch to support it.
Cavium will show the following product demonstrations at booth
24 at ONS 2016:
- XPliant: Extensible, feature rich, cloud scale
datacenter switches providing bandwidth from 1Tbps to 3.2Tbps
- Demonstration of FBOSS and OpenSwitch NOS software running on
Cavium's XPliant based Edgecore AS7500-32X platform.
- Demonstration of OpenSwitch NOS software running on Cavium's
XPliant based Edgecore AS7500-32X platform through OepnXPS API at
OpenSwitch booth.
- Demonstration of Microsoft Azure's network software running on
Cavium's XPliant based Edgecore AS7500-32X platform via Switch
Abstraction Interface (SAI) adopter at Microsoft's booth.
- Demonstration of Pica8's PicOS software running on Cavium's
XPliant based Edgecore AS7500-32X platform.
- Demonstration of XPliant–based 32x100G platforms from various
ODM partners.
