Notes
Pure-play AI networking: open-standard switch silicon, systems and AI-optimised SONiC software for scale-out clusters, on UEC and UALink standards. Pitched as the open alternative to NVIDIA's networking lock-in while building its Ethernet systems on NVIDIA Spectrum-X switch silicon - and NVIDIA joined its latest round. From a $100M+ seed to ~$500M raised in under 18 months; 80+ companies including AMD, Intel, Google, Meta and Microsoft back the open standard.
