ArubaOS-CX is built on a modular Linux architecture with OVSDB, providing safe and powerful access to all state at all times, which provides unique visibility and analytics capabilities.

ArubaOS-CX includes Aruba's Network Analytics Engine (NAE) for advanced telemetry and automation. The NAE framework is a monitoring and troubleshooting system, providing greatly improved network operations. NAE uniquely provides the ability to monitor and easily troubleshoot network health and congestion issues. The Time Series Database (TSDB) may be used to store configuration and operational state. Customers can use data from the TSDB to write software modules to troubleshoot problems. This data may also be used to analyze trends, identify anomalies, and predict future capacity requirements.

The ability of ArubaOS-CX to maintain synchronous state across dual control planes allows a unique high availability solution called Aruba Virtual Switching Extension (VSX). VSX is delivered through redundancy gained by deploying two chassis with an inter-switch link, with each chassis maintaining its independent control.

Designed using existing HA technology features such as Multichassis Link Aggregation (MC-LAG) and Virtual Switching Framework (VSF), Aruba VSX enables a distributed architecture that is highly available during upgrades or control plane events.
