“With this combination of Pluribus and Dell, we are demonstrating that the value of SDN goes far beyond disaggregation of hardware and software alone.

Together, we are changing the game!” said Kumar Srikantan, president and CEO of Pluribus Networks.

We see this as a powerful play given Dell's wide-reaching customer base in the data center, and the highly disruptive and innovative capabilities that Pluribus' Open Netvisor Linux brings to the open networking marketplace” said Tom Turkot, Vice President of Client Solutions for Arlington Computer Products.
