“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.”

"Arista’s new SDN feature set provides network architects with unprecedented control in delivering a high-performance distributed data layer on top of their switching fabric."

"When deploying a cloud infrastructure in the data center, network performance, power efficiency, low latency and scalability are all key considerations. The architecture of the Arista 7500 is ideally suited for cloud computing and a great match for Dell’s PowerEdge server and EqualLogic iSCSI storage solutions where an uncompromised cloud …

“Like many other service providers, we are exploring cloud opportunities as this is where the market is heading. Our first step on this path was a major project to transform our existing infrastructure from traditional SDI cables and routers into a system based on TCP/IP networks using mostly commodity IT …

“We have the Arista platforms running operationally now for nearly five years and the performance along with the integration into our SDN architecture is phenomenal, but what is just as important is our relationship with the Arista team – this goes beyond just support, by providing us access to some …

"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 …

“In a matter of minutes, and without being on-site, I can deploy a new WiFi network or create splash pages to enhance a guest experience. We can provide a personalized experience for thousands of people. Arista helped us eliminate the other competitors by offering every wireless functionality we required in …

“We had three main goals, Firstly we needed increased bandwidth to support the sheer volume of content we have moving across our network, next we needed to ensure reliability with the ability to grow as needed. And finally, we were keen to build automation into the network management side to …

“We call it the next evolution of networking and we believe that one day all operators will be like this, A future where each customer has the freedom to adapt the service provider network to their individual business requirements without sacrificing quality, performance or reliability is now a reality.”

“In order to have the maximum scalability we selected to use a L3 mesh backbone between switch and transport traffic using VXLAN encapsulation, This particular configuration offers the required flexibility and simple provisioning operation in order to provide effective network transport, for Fixed Mobile itself and our wholesale customers.”

“We had previously built and maintained very specialist servers linked to atomic clocks that serve NTP requests for time data. This method worked well, but the new NTS standard uses more computational resources for encryption processes. This reduced the number of requests we could serve from our existing clusters and …

"As we looked to create the finest Cloud Services offering to our customers we wanted to build this on best of breed products. Arista has proven to be truly best of breed with their 10Gb Ethernet switches. The combination of port density, low power consumption and robust high quality software …

"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!"

"Arista is one of the only companies that understands the role of the network in high performance data centers, Big Data, server virtualization and cloud computing. Simply stated, Arista is delivering leading performance and software functionality to drive its industry and customers forward."
