PICA8, Inc.

Pica8 has made network disaggregation exciting again!Over 900 customers in 30+ countries - and counting - have now deployed Pica8's open standards-based Network Operating System -- PICOS -- to solve some of the world's toughest next-gen networking problems. For the first time in decades, large enterprises now have a modern, stable and commercially proven mainstream alternative to their existing proprietary network infrastructure. Only this one is open, cost-effective, and runs on the latest and most powerful white box switches, offering capabilities that are simply not available on other platforms.Pica8's unique CrossFlow™ feature provides enterprises with nothing less than a new networking best practice. With PICOS , each and every port on enterprise switches - from 1G to 100G - can maintain all the power and capabilities of a company's traditional, distributed L2/L3 network, while having those very same ports seamlessly augmented with dynamic security and policy updates via a tightly coupled OpenFlow control plane. This gives network operators surgical, non-disruptive control of their enterprise applications; deep and dynamic traffic monitoring; and even attack mitigation - all in real time.As a fundamentally different approach to open enterprise networking solutions, we will continue to push the boundaries of network application control, customization and ease of use for each and every one of our customers, clearing their paths to innovation and business agility in their market segments. Combine all of this with Pica8's unmatched global service and support, it is our goal for our customers to look back at their new best-practice modernized white-box networks and say, "what took us so long?" Headquartered in Palo Alto, California, Pica8 - a late-stage venture-backed startup -- also has operations in Asia (engineering and support) and Europe (support), which allows the company to offer world-class 24x7x365 technical support to its global customer base.
