VyOS Networks Supports Planet Labs with High-Availability Hybrid Networking Built for Control

Open-source networking platform supports resilient, high-availability operations across office, data center, and cloud-connected environments.

POWAY, Calif., April 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- VyOS Networks today announced a new customer success story featuring Planet Labs PBC, a leading provider of daily Earth imaging and geospatial insights, and how the company uses VyOS to support resilient networking across office, data center, and cloud-connected environments.

As Planet Labs expanded into a new data center and operated across distributed office locations, the team needed a networking platform that could support high availability, secure inter-site connectivity, and cloud integration without adding hardware dependency or operational rigidity. Traditional platforms introduced cost, limited flexibility, and reduced control over how infrastructure could be deployed and maintained over time.

VyOS gave Planet Labs a more adaptable foundation for hybrid networking, combining Linux-native familiarity with enterprise-grade routing, firewalling, and VPN capabilities. Running on Planet Labs’ own hardware, the deployment supports a wide range of networking requirements, including:

Two-node firewall configurations at each site for failover and resilience
Site-to-site IPsec VPNs for secure inter-site connectivity
BGP for cloud service integration
OSPF between VLANs and locations
WAN load balancing across multiple ISPs

This architecture gave Planet Labs a consistent and transparent way to operate hybrid networking across environments while keeping lifecycle control in-house. Once deployed, the platform required minimal intervention beyond routine firewall policy updates and has continued to run reliably in production for more than six years.

“Planet Labs demonstrates how modern infrastructure teams can build for resilience and control without accepting the limitations of proprietary networking,” said Santiago Blanquet, Chief Revenue Officer at VyOS Networks. “VyOS gave them a dependable foundation for hybrid operations with the flexibility to scale on their own terms.”

“VyOS combines the flexibility of Linux with the reliability of enterprise networking,” said Jon McCarthy, Network Administrator at Planet Labs. “It feels familiar but performs like the best in class, and that’s exactly what we need.”
