NVIDIA Mellanox Switch Software

NVIDIA® offers a wide range of Network Operating Systems (NOS), from the homegrown Ethernet Operating System, NVIDIA Mellanox Onyx™, to native Linux operating systems, NVIDIA Cumulus Linux, and a variety of vendor specific options.

Similarly, switch OEMs, NOS vendors and other users may also develop their own switch software on top of the NVIDIA Software Development Kit (SDK) or the standard Switch Abstraction Layer (SAI) to allow best of breed pairing of hardware and software.

What Just Happened (WJH)

What Just Happened (WJH) is an advanced streaming telemetry technology that provides real time visibility into problems in the network. WJH goes beyond conventional telemetry solutions by providing actionable details on abnormal network behavior. Traditional solutions try to extrapolate root causes of network issues by analyzing network counters and statistical packet sampling. WJH eliminates the guesswork from network troubleshooting.

Cumulus Linux

Cumulus Linux embodies native Linux networking. Supercharged versions of the kernel and other networking related packages encompass the latest industry thinking in networking while retaining compatibility with the full range of software available in Debian. SN2000 series running Cumulus Linux provide standard networking functions such as bridging, routing, VLANs, MLAGs, IPv4/IPv6, OSPF/BGP, access control,VRF and VxLAN overlays. Cumulus-Linux running on top of Mellanox SN2000 series is a perfect fit for customers with need for automated-cloud deployments, Layer-3 to the server deployments and "infrastructure as Code" data-centers.
