I am so excited about this, while I realize switches are perhaps one of the last bastions of over priced software I would love to have a switch where it is just a freakin' switch. It isn't trying to be all things to all people at some level and doing that badly. I've got Blade, HP, Cisco, Supermicro, and Mellanox switches that have been in this role (Top of Rack) and so often they bite the big one when it comes to some random protocol going nuts. Every single site outage in nearly 4 years of 'launch' has been due to a switch bug.


Quanta + Cumulus is pretty much already there.
