“We are continually evaluating new technologies and potential vendors and we had read good reports about Arista in this space, We also spoke to contacts within the Italian and international community that had successfully deployed Arista. Following these discussions we decided to include Arista in a PoC as Arista’s technology …

"I would say that Arista has the best technical support in the business. We got nothing but highly knowledgeable people at initial contact, and an excellent and honest sales staff, with no gray area or misunderstandings. It was an excellent decision to turn our network into an Arista data center."

"As data centers continue to evolve in tandem with software defined solutions, we are pleased to work with Arista to help customers maximize performance with minimal hardware. The flexibility of the Arista 7150 series allows IT professionals to design scalable, software defined systems without the performance limitations and costs associated …

"For us the future is a fully 100Gbps architecture, so our plan is to bring the next generation of Arista kit back into our labs and put it through its paces – and we know that behind us we have the Arista engineers and support team that are simply awesome!"

“We also liked the fact that the Arista EOS is the same across all the switches, it’s easy to operate and low maintenance. Another benefit was the centralised orchestration capability which was very powerful.”

“We have been growing quickly over the last few years, but the network infrastructure was starting to become unreliable and a bottleneck for growth because any outage would have a massive negative impact on our operations and indeed global shipping.”

“Each remote camera outputs between 2 to 8 Gbps of data and with 75 cameras active, the underlying IP network was having serious issues that were leading to latency and dropouts, We previously had technical discussions with Arista ahead of this project and it was decided that we would bring …

“Our network was starting to reach its limits of scalability – and was not well suited to a more virtualised environment as it lacked native support for VXLAN. and we know that as things get more difficult to manage, the risk of failure rises – and this is not acceptable …

"Arista continues to lead the way in data center network innovations, this is the first real API integration of a broad-based data center network platform and seeing it connect with OpenStack and solve real customer provisioning issues is exactly what this industry has needed to scale cloud computing."

"Our technical guys were particularly impressed by the ease of management of Arista and during operation it has allowed us to make major changes that would typically take weeks in just a few days.”

“That changed last year when Avid began certifying additional network vendors, This gave us the opportunity to create a broader public tender and consider other options for the upgraded network layer needed to deliver this project”

“We looked at and tested several options and we were very impressed with the Arista proposal, Arista met and often exceeded all the requirements stated within the technical specification. The design underpins each virtualized cluster with a simple but effective spine and leaf topology, capable of delivering all the throughput …

“Arista has been supportive during this project, and we look forward to working with the team as we transition more of our production infrastructure towards virtualization and embrace the benefits of private cloud.”

“Rai is a public service media company focused on the adoption of open standards. Thanks to the introduction of Arista technology, we have been able to complete the new virtualized architecture which has been successfully integrated with what already existed in our production infrastructure. We are steadily moving towards a …

"NEC's customers are experiencing increasing demands on data center networks because of new applications and ever-changing business requirements. Arista's announcement and its commitment to open APIs, including OpenFlow, combined with NEC's ProgrammableFlow(r) controllers, deliver greater levels of network automation, while driving down operational costs and time to provision of new …
