“As a research and development hub, OIST would be unable to accomplish anything without a fully operational network. The network backbone is mission critical infrastructure for OIST, a shutdown would impair every research facility on our campus. The two-layer ring topology constructed using network equipment from different manufacturers ensures a …

“Our legacy network architecture could not guarantee us the reliability and throughput we needed, In an environment where you are potentially pushing tens of petabytes across the network each day, delays result in loss of productivity and our workloads are growing by double digits each quarter.”

"All students should be able to access the network without any problems. We also hope to provide a system that will enable online viewing for students who were unable to attend classes for various reasons or wishing to review their classes."

“Over the last three years we’ve seen the number of student devices triple. They’re each bringing three to four devices onto campus, which created a problem on the old network. Arista allows us to put more people onto one access point and not have students dropping off. Arista’s dashboard makes …
