Cruz Operations Center Archictecture
The CruzOC Automation Framework can initiate any system operation, like script-execution, configuration back-ups and or restorations in response to any event.
CruzOC is built upon a componentized device driver architecture that provides standardized application support protocols and configurations. By simply installing a new device driver, CruzOC can manage additional network elements without needing to upgrade any applications. In addition, you can easily create your own device drivers with a Device Driver SDK for those vendors where a driver is not currently available.
CruzOC also features a graphical user interface based upon standard web portal technologies. This allows for a customizable user experience to satisfy customer specific operational procedures, all within a multi-tenant environment.
