CloudVision Solution

The CloudVision solution is comprised of three components: CloudVision Portal, CloudVision eXchange, and CloudVision CUE

(Cognitive Unified Edge). These components provide the platform for both orchestration and automation for wired and wireless

networks as follows:

CloudVision Portal is a web platform and associated historical database built to automate the workflows for a variety of

network provisioning, change management, and monitoring tasks. Available for on-premises deployments (virtual or

physical appliance) as well as cloud service delivery with CloudVision as-a-Service.

CloudVision eXchange is a EOS-based network-wide multi-function control point providing a single access point for real-

time provisioning, orchestration and integration with third party controllers and services.

CloudVision CUE (Cognitive Unified Edge) is a centralized management plane that simplifies policy management,

provisioning and troubleshooting of WiFi networks while delivering richer telemetry to network administrators. For more

details, consult the CloudVision CUE Datasheet.
