“Along with reliability concerns, the Avaya switches used a proprietary software defined network technology, This gave us very little scope to implement the automation we desired – so we decided to upgrade the network to a more modern and open platform.”

"StumbleUpon has been experiencing sustained traffic growth typical of large social networks and Arista was able to provide the most efficient and scalable datacenter networking platform. The low power consumption and high density of Arista's switches is unmatched by the competition."

"We felt the support of Arista from the very beginning, their engineering team, their partners, they’ve been with us in the different phases of the project. The support from Arista’s team was outstanding."

“From when we first launched, our strategy was to build everything from the ground up ourselves, We want the best technologies and providers within a design put together and maintained by our internal team. This approach allows us to always ensure quality, and this is what many people associate with …

“Sweet.tv faced the difficult task of quickly and efficiently upgrading its network to support and improve the quality of service provided to subscribers, whose numbers are rapidly growing.”

“We were building out 10 to 20 racks a week and hosting customers might have multiple elements such as dedicated servers, firewalls, switches and private clouds within their racks or rooms which needed to be physically connected in close proximity to overcome cabling issues and to improve performance. This meant …

“In the past, the introduction of new technologies started in the telecommunications market before expanding out into other markets, but I think modern GPU and AI networks are now driving more and more technological innovations. I look forward to exchanging information and working closely with Arista Networks in the future …

"In fact, given Arista's impressive layer 3 routing capabilities, I can't see anything being more significant in the 10 GbE switching space right now."

"The high density 40GbE and 100GbE interfaces, deep packet buffers, SDN features and the robustness of EOS makes the Arista 7500 an ideal spine platform for our network. Arista continues to innovate on programmability with it's Linux based EOS and was a key factor in deciding on the 7500E for …

“The implementation has provided us with the flexibility and adaptability we need to meet our users’ evolving demands while ensuring long-term sustainability. This innovative approach paves the way for new services and applications in our research community.”

"We effectively process more transactions than the London Stock Exchanges combined and our development teams are continually working on a variety of projects that require our infrastructure to deliver both high performance and the ability to rapidly scale.”

"The decision to go with Arista also gave us an opportunity to revaluate our architecture and start to take advantage of extensibility features within the platform such as buffer monitoring, that offer us more visibility over traffic flow, and to take proactive capacity planning measures to avoid any future issues.”

"The Arista 7500 switch should accelerate the adoption of 10Gb Ethernet as the interconnect of choice for high performance servers and storage in cloud computing, virtualization and mission-critical data center applications. In particular, I expect to see even faster growth of high density Ethernet clusters as the replacement technology for …

“We instead made the decision to build all of the core platforms and infrastructure ourselves, Many of the systems were completely unique and we were keen to ensure that performance and reliability were absolutely part of what made our platform stand out from the crowd, so we made technology investment …

“It was a simple migration for us. The level of performance and reliability of the network meets our demands, and the Arista platform provides us with enough headroom to scale up our portals without any network-related restrictions.”
