Asterfusion has announced the availability of an official Ansible plugin for its Enterprise SONiC NOS.

Asterfusion, a leading provider of ope network solutions, has announced the availability of an official Ansible plugin for its Enterprise SONiC NOS. 

By integrating AsterNOS with the Ansible platform, Asterfusion’s SONiC software allows O&M engineers to more easily embrace NetDevOps. This is done through the use of modules that can be added to the system via a network connection. These modules can be called directly from the “Playbook”, eliminating the need for tedious custom development. By doing this, O&M engineers can focus more on the underlying networks instead of having to pay attention to the configuration scripts interfaces. This makes O&M much more efficient overall.

What Is NetDevOps

Enhancing the efficiency of daily management, operations and maintenance by leveraging commercial solutions and open-source tools increases the effectiveness of net ops and maintenance personnel's process and methodology called NetDevOps. This increases the automation in their operations and maintenance processes, allowing for a higher level of maintenance to be performed with less staff.

What Is Ansible

Ansible is a popular network automation program that uses the advantages of other O&M tools such as puppet, cfengine, chef and SaltStack. It is built on the Python programming language and can be used to maintain and automate networks.

What is AsterNOS?

AsterNOS is an enterprise-level SONiC distribution self-develop by Asterfusion, which is stable and compatible with almost all mainstream commercial switching chips, with tens of thousands of commercial deployments around the globe. Compared to the community version, the commercial SONiC-based AsterNOS provides a wider variety of features, simpler usability, and can be used right away. As a new-generation NOS for the cloud computing era, AsterNOS is open source and business-oriented, and absolutely conforms to the NetDevOps concept, making it more useful and engaging.

Asterfusion Ultra -low latency switch- Ceph cluster deployment and OpenStack integration

图片
  Ceph is a very popular and widely used SDS ( Software Defined Storage ) solution, which can provide object, block and file-level storage at the same time. This article will show you how to use Asterfusion CX-N series ultra-low-latency switches to form a network to carry Ceph storage clusters and use Ceph as the storage backend to integrate with Openstack. Before the popularization of cloud technology, common storage solutions in the IT industry were DAS, SAN, and NAS.  Currently, the three traditional storage solutions have some problems in terms of price, performance, scalability, deployment, operation and maintenance in their respective application scenarios.  So, there is no one-size-fits-all solution on storage. In actual production environments, we often need to make trade-offs based on data size, performance requirements, budget, and application scenarios. The emergence of Ceph is a compromise solution to the above problems. What is Ceph ? Ceph is a very popular o...
