smartNOC for Network Operators — Zero-Ops Infrastructure for the Edge

smartNOC eliminates configuration drift, manual patching, and audit uncertainty at scale. Designed for MSOs, ISPs, and telcos running thousands of distributed edge nodes, smartNOC delivers deterministic provisioning, continuous compliance, and autonomous fault detection — all from a single declarative model.

Cable Operators Telcos & Carriers Regional ISPs

Edge Infrastructure Challenges

Managing tens of thousands of distributed edge nodes with small teams. Configuration drift, patch compliance, and manual intervention don't scale.

Unified Zero-Ops Model

Every node self-validates configuration and health. Immutable images, declarative provisioning, and per-node policy attestation eliminate drift.

Compliance by Architecture

Continuous evidence collection and cryptographic attestation built into the platform. Audit data as a byproduct of operations, not an afterthought.

Built for Scale

From hundreds to tens of thousands of nodes across multiple regions. Same deterministic model, same zero-touch operation, same compliance guarantees.

Engineered for Operator Environments

smartNOC addresses the specific challenges faced by network operators managing distributed infrastructure at scale:

Cable Operators & MSOs

Managing 50,000+ edge nodes across hundreds of regions. CMTS, DNS, DHCP, caching clusters — smartNOC eliminates drift and manual patching through immutable nodes and role-based certificates.

RBOCs, Mobile & Fiber Carriers

From core to tower, zero-trust by default. Trusted-boot nodes for 5G and micro-data centers, per-site CMDB-driven provisioning, service dependency mapping for VNFs/CNFs.

Regional & Independent ISPs

Enterprise-grade automation without enterprise headcount. Zero-touch provisioning, continuous compliance visibility, and self-auditing nodes that repair drift before it causes outages.

CDN & Edge Compute Providers

Deterministic infrastructure for the distributed edge. Immutable site images, real-time evidence chain, secure inter-service communication, per-region key lifecycle management.

Why Operators Need smartNOC

Infrastructure is growing faster than teams can scale:

  • Configuration drift is chronic — Manual changes, undocumented patches, and regional variations create unpredictable behavior
  • Compliance is a burden — Evidence collection consumes hundreds of hours annually, audits find gaps in documentation
  • Scaling requires headcount — Traditional NOC models assume linear growth in staff as infrastructure expands
  • Incidents take too long — Triage, root cause, and remediation depend on tribal knowledge and manual intervention

smartNOC changes the equation. It delivers:

  • Zero configuration drift — Immutable nodes, declarative state, automated repair
  • Continuous compliance — Evidence as a byproduct, not a project
  • Sublinear operations scaling — Same team manages 10x the infrastructure
  • Autonomous fault detection — ML-driven anomaly detection, self-diagnosis, automated remediation
Compliance Automation for Operators

smartNOC treats evidence as a byproduct of operations. Audit data for every node — firmware, package manifest, certificate lineage, service state — is collected and cryptographically linked to the CMDB, forming an immutable chain of trust for auditors and compliance teams.
