Arista CloudVision Lite - subscription license (1 month) - 1 switch

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 and branch environments. 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 a 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 data lake, NetDL, that leverages real-time state-streaming to collect an aggregate view of the physical network state. NetDL 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 NetDL, 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.
