"As the largest U.S. options exchange and creator of listed options, the Chicago Board of Exchange requires a network infrastructure that delivers the low latency and non blocking performance that our high volume trading environments demand. Arista's high performance modular and top of rack 10 Gb switching solutions meet CBOE …

"Ethernet interfaces from 10G to 100G provide sufficient bandwidth to transport uncompressed content from SD to UHD but require additional broadcast wrappers to do so. This includes the SMPTE standards, which have recently enabled uncompressed media transport over IP and, thereby, removed the last blocker to an all‐IP platform. While …

“We eventually decided upon an Arista based leaf and spine network supported by VMware for application, network and storage virtualisation as together they offered the best combination of performance and reliability within a significantly simpler design. We also worked with a local Arista partner, UCS, to ensure we always had …

"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."

"We selected Arista for its known performance and robustness. Being a proven technology in combination with the fact that it runs Linux provides us the flexibility we need in a switch platform supporting a fast changing technology such as OpenStack.”

“The Arista solution is proven and well established within the media and entertainment sector with successful deployments at major broadcasters across Europe. it delivers high performance and scalable capacity while supporting open standards that works well with SDN platforms such as DataMiner.”

"The Arista switches, with their leading port density, low power and robust software allowed us to meet the high standards that our customers demand from our social networking service."

“Improving the reliability of our network is always a key issue for us. In addition to ensuring redundancy of the networking equipment, we also have a robust framework in place for operation and maintenance.”

"At present, we are only utilizing the L2 functions. In the future, we are eager to better utilize the Arista switches’ characteristic functions such as automatic software installation and ‘MLAG’, which achieves link aggregation between different chassis.”

“We looked at almost every vendor you can think of and tested performance, expandability, features and, of course, looked at the future roadmap. Based on months of testing and evaluation, it was clear to us that Arista offered the best fit for our needs and a path to grow in …

“Everything is driving towards the cloud. Even when customers buy our software off the shelf, the data is uploaded and can be accessed from their phone, tablet, etc.”

"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 …

“The customers we spoke to were all extremely positive about the deal, especially several in the electronic trading sector that had already deployed Arista solutions within their core networks due to their low latency and non-blocking performance.”

“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.”
