Aviz Networks and EPS Global Offer Pre-Installed SONiC and Packet Broker

Summary

Aviz Networks and EPS Global made a pre-installed networking offering available through EPS Global, with Aviz software placed on Celestica switching platforms. The goal was to provide a turnkey option for deploying open networking infrastructure without assembling and validating the stack before deployment starts.

The bundles were positioned as a way to reduce deployment complexity and operational risk, while simplifying procurement and global delivery. EPS Global’s distribution, integration support, and partner enablement were included as part of how the offering reached customers.

The first bundle included Aviz Certified Community SONiC, ONES, and Aviz 24x7 Technical support pre-installed on Celestica switching platforms. The second bundle included Aviz Packet Broker and Aviz 24x7 Technical support on Celestica switching platforms. Both bundles were described as pre-validated and ready to deploy.

Craig Schaefer, Director of Worldwide Partner Sales, Aviz Networks, said, “Customers want the flexibility and economics of open networking without the burden of assembling and validating the stack themselves. Together with EPS Global, we're making SONiC and Packet Broker dramatically easier to adopt and operationalize with pre-integrated solutions built on proven Celestica hardware.” Alan Fagan, VP of Sales, Americas, EPS Global, said, “This collaboration gives customers and channel partners a streamlined path to deploying open networking infrastructure. By combining Aviz software with Celestica hardware into a turnkey bundle, we're helping customers accelerate deployment while reducing operational complexity.”
