Aviz Networks and MITSUI KNOWLEDGE INDUSTRY CO., LTD have formed a partnership in Japan around open, multi-vendor networking for data centers, AI factories, edge sites, and telecom environments. The offering combines software for orchestration and operations with design, implementation, and deployment services.

Partnership Scope

The partnership pairs Aviz’s software stack with MITSUI KNOWLEDGE INDUSTRY CO., LTD’s network engineering and deployment services. The companies say this gives organizations a single point of contact from planning through production.

The article says the arrangement is intended to support customers that want to adopt open networking while working with multiple hardware vendors. It also places the initial focus on organizations in Japan.

Products Included

Aviz said its offering through MITSUI KNOWLEDGE INDUSTRY CO., LTD includes ONES, Network Copilot, and Aviz AI Agents. Each product is described as serving a different part of network operations.

ONES provides centralized orchestration, visibility, and monitoring for switches running SONiC across multiple hardware vendors, along with 24x7 expert support. Network Copilot uses large language models and existing infrastructure data to help teams investigate issues, validate configurations, and generate reports using natural language.

Operational Use Cases

Aviz AI Agents are described as workflows that run on Network Copilot. They analyze network and system data in real time and automate information gathering and routine operational tasks.

The article says these capabilities are meant to reduce manual work and help teams keep operations consistent as networks grow. It also says the tools are designed for multi-vendor environments that use white-box switches and SONiC.

Why the Partnership Was Positioned

The article frames open networking as a way to give organizations more choice in hardware and network operating systems. It also says teams face rising infrastructure costs, greater operational complexity, and dependence on a single vendor as networks scale.

MITSUI KNOWLEDGE INDUSTRY CO., LTD said it will first focus on data center operators and telecommunications carriers, then explore broader enterprise use. This Blog Summary is a fact-based summary of the vendor blog.
