3 min read

Cisco Platform Abstraction (CPA) is a model-driven, administrative platform software development kit (SDK) created by Cisco developers that disaggregates software and hardware from a Network Operating System (NOS) like Cisco IOS XE. CPA streamlines the work of the hardware development team, the diagnostics team, and the platform team, saving time and money for development.
