Calix announced a significant update to AXOS which expands infrastructure APIs to enable full modularity across network functions.

As new services proliferate and network demand increases, the pace of new service rollouts is accelerating across markets.

"As we continue to grow our network and connect more southern Colorado communities to fiber broadband, it is critical that we maintain network connectivity throughout the process," said Josh Wehe, director of operations for Colorado-based Jade Communications.

Built with a modular architecture, the AXOS platform delivers dramatically simplified and stateful operations that enable CSPs to ensure their access networks are Always On. By targeting a single software module for upgrade, AXOS enables the rest of the network to continue running uninterrupted.

"Scheduling software maintenance windows has historically been an unfortunate reality of operating a network but one that is necessary to fix critical software or system defects or to eliminate a vulnerability," said Michel Langlois, chief development officer, Intelligent Access EDGE products for Calix.

"Entering 2021, we are excited to give CSPs the ability to perform these complex changes without interrupting any of the services they provide. This expansion of our AXOS Always On capability ensures that critical network and system functions remain available even during software updates."
