Our Story

Switchnomix was founded with a single mission: to simplify network and security management for enterprises navigating an increasingly data-driven world. From the beginning, we recognized the immense challenges that organizations face in operating their networks efficiently and securely. Traditional network management required extensive vendor-specific programming, complex integrations, and often redundant “glue code,” which ultimately hindered business agility and scalability. As network infrastructure expanded and diversified, these challenges grew, placing even greater demands on time, resources, and expertise.

Our journey began with Switchnomix Cloud Platform, a pioneering service focused on simplifying switch management. However, the rapid evolution of enterprise needs inspired us to develop a more universal solution — one that could seamlessly manage any network device, from switches to firewalls to wireless access points. This vision drove the development of the H3Net Protocol: a vendor-neutral, open-source protocol designed to unify the management of diverse network devices without the burden of proprietary configurations or extensive manual intervention.

The H3Net Protocol, built on HTTP/3 and JSON, provides a secure, high-performance framework that standardizes communication across network devices, offering enterprises the flexibility to manage configurations, enforce security policies, and access real-time telemetry data from any device. By releasing H3Net as an open-source protocol under the Apache 2 license, we are empowering device manufacturers to incorporate H3Net into their hardware, enhancing compatibility and reducing operational silos. This enables other developers and organizations to build their own controllers, driving innovation and allowing H3Net to grow as a community-supported standard.

With the evolution of H3Net, Switchnomix is also expanding its own offerings. Our commercial SaaS Controller Service will provide a robust, scalable, cloud-based management solution that leverages H3Net to deliver seamless network and security management. This service will offer enterprises a comprehensive, ready-made solution for orchestrating network configurations, enhancing security, and achieving real-time visibility without vendor lock-in or complex integrations.

Our vision is clear: we are here to help enterprises innovate with data science-driven business outcomes by simplifying, securing, and scaling their networks. Switchnomix is building a future where network management is as agile, flexible, and powerful as the enterprises it serves — enabling growth, empowering control, and unlocking the full potential of network data.
