"As enterprises continue to build data centers on cloud computing technologies, it is critical that they can easily integrate with Hadoop-based systems for business analytics. We're encouraged by the latest innovations from Arista, which promises to deliver advanced network provisioning capabilities for seamless integration with Software Driven Cloud Networks that complement and extend the capabilities of Cloudera's next generation data management tools for the enterprise."
“The advantage of the solution offered by Arista is a combination of MLAG functionality with very low packet latency, which is a very important feature when it comes to distributed calculations.”
"Proactive management of network latency is essential to ensure maximum performance - Arista's new 7124SX switch does just that by delivering extremely low latency, sFlow traffic monitoring, and breakthrough visibility into queue depths with LANZ."
"Combining Myricom's industry-leading programmable network adapters and versatile software with Arista's innovative switching platform will enable customers to leverage high performance networking for an even broader range of applications."
"Aruba Networks and Arista have joined forces to deliver best-of-breed campus networking solutions that address critical requirements across mobility centralized policy and control and bandwidth aggregation."
“This is the largest and most significant project we have undertaken within Virgin Media O2 that will radically impact how we manage the network over the next decade, Our selection of Arista as the core network technology has been carefully considered and extensively tested. To date, the results have either met or surpassed our expectations. For us, the relationship with Arista is a strategic partnership and our vision around areas such as open standards and the future technology roadmap are aligned which gives us confidence in the long-term success of this transformative project."
“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 we spent a lot of time physically moving servers around our data centres, resulting in delays in processing customer orders while proving time consuming for our technical teams.”
“The architecture is designed to cope well with unanticipated issues and we have worked with a fantastically responsive team at Arista to do things which would normally be incredibly challenging with monolithic network operating system architecture - and crucially, while delivering the highest levels of performance and availability for the network.”
"The Arista 7500 provides extremely strong port density and price value. It also takes up much less space than competing switches, and it uses copper cabling to cut down on installation costs. It should be highly competitive in the high performance computing market."
"Broadcom, a global leader in semiconductors for wired and wireless communications, is pleased to work with Arista to deliver the Arista 7500, a platform that delivers a perfect combination of high performance, dense 10GbE, low latency, and feature richness built specifically for mission critical data center applications."
"Overall, this has been a very successful project for us that has removed much of the complexity of our network while building a solid foundation that allows us to keep scaling the network to better serve the business.”
“We turned to technologies that can be scaled easily and provide high reliability and survival time, taking into account the service scope and requirements. In addition to the needs of existing systems, services and users, we also considered the rapidly increasing data center demand and traffic volumes.”
"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.”
"For the cost, density and performance we were looking for, we could find no other solution that got close to the level of the Arista switches. The move to Arista has led to a 6 to 8 times increase in throughput with a latency reduction."
"As customers continue to leverage our VMware NSX™ network virtualization platform as a core component of the software-defined data center, Arista is an important VMware NSX partner. The addition of support for the OVSDB on the Arista 7000 series with hardware VXLAN tunnel endpoint (VTEP) is another example of our joint innovation. Our joint customers can leverage VMware NSX and Arista to realize the benefits of unified management between physical and virtual workloads across hypervisors and physical access switches."
