Original: Scaling open networking through Cisco-validated SONiC on N9000

The move is aimed at scaling open networking deployments, giving operators a vendor-backed path to run disaggregated, open-source networking software on Cisco hardware. The announcement highlights growing industry interest in SONiC as data centre operators seek alternatives to closed, proprietary network operating systems.
Why now: Cisco's endorsement of open-source SONiC signals a shift toward open networking in enterprise and data centre markets, which interests network operators and industry watchers.
