  DriveNets is a networking company that designs and sells infrastructure to telecommunications providers, networks, and organizations building AI systems, including hyperscaler organizations and NeoClouds (GPU-as-a-Service providers). Products include a networking operating system running on a White box, and an Ethernet-based AI Fabric used for backend, compute, and storage networks. ## History [...] DriveNets furnishes a network operating system (NOS) designed for cloud-native infrastructures for building networks. The Network Cloud architecture provides a software-based routing framework that allows networks to scale linearly and predictably. The company has built software that runs on white boxes. This network virtualization to a shared infrastructure creates a single, software-based entity. The company’s approach disaggregates the network, decoupling the control plane software from hardware. The disaggregated networking model is based on Open Compute Project (OCP) distributed Disaggregated Chassis (DDC) and Telecom Infra Project DDBR frameworks. In 2023, it introduced an AI infrastructure networking platform, Network Cloud-AI, based on Fabric Scheduled Ethernet (FSE). [...] DriveNets was founded in 2015 by Ido Susan and Hillel Kobrinsky. Susan is the co-founder of Intucell, which he sold to Cisco for $475 million in 2013. Kobrinsky co-founded Interwise, which was acquired by AT&T for $121 million. DriveNets was in a stealth mode and was self-funded until 2019.
