SAI

SAI API: The Switch Abstraction Interface (SAI) defines the API to provide a vendor-independent way of controlling forwarding elements, such as a switching ASIC, an NPU or a software switch in a uniform manner. Refer to the SAI github for more details on the SAI APIs.

Hardware vendors are expected to provide a SAI-friendly implementation of the SDK required to drive their ASICs.
