Arista has pioneered the cloud networking movement with its software driven approach, built on cloud principles with consistent, reliable software offering, open standards-based designs, and native programmability. CloudVision extends the same architectural approach of simplification through software consistency as a multi-domain management plane for automating the entire network, across private, public and hybrid clouds as well as wired and wireless campus. CloudVision enables enterprises to gain the benefits of cloud-class automation and telemetry via a turnkey software package. CloudVision is a network-wide approach for cloud networking, including software suite of capabilities for automated provisioning, compliance, telemetry, analytics and orchestration.
With CloudVision, the physical network continues to operate in a familiar model, following the Universal Cloud Network design principles. The well-known control and data plane features continue to be distributed in each physical device. The same command-line (CLI) and APIs are available to the operator.
However, CloudVision enhances the traditional operational model with a centralized network database, NetDB, that leverages real-time state-streaming to collected an aggregate view of the physical network state. NetDB is built on a cloud-native architecture leveraging scale-out technologies such as Kubernetes and Hadoop and serves as a basis for cognitive analytics. With NetDB, CloudVision becomes the point of abstraction of and interface to the physical network enabling enterprise-grade network-wide automation, time-series visibility with state streaming analytics, and 3rd party integrations from a central perspective.
CloudVision can be deployed as a traditional on-premises virtual or physical appliance, or can be consumed as a SaaS-based service, for both wired and wireless. CloudVision as-a-Service is a fully Arista managed software service that runs in the cloud and provides the same functionality as the on-prem offering. The cloud service takes full advantage of CloudVision's cloud-native architecture helping customers achieve faster time-to-value, elastic scaling, and continuous network assurance with a connected support experience in a secure environment.
