“Arista was a big part of that success by being able to ensure that the right technology, products, support and partners were in place across the entire project to help us meet our tight deadlines.”

"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 recognised that our legacy network was not well suited to our future plans, especially with our growing partner community and expanded portfolio of services including data backup, replication and hosting services.”

“Some of our new digital services demand more throughput from the network and our existing switches were also reaching end-of-life, so it made sense to think about redesigning our network from the ground up.”

"To maintain the cutting edge R&D computing capabilities our scientists need to fulfill their national security missions, we look for the cost-effective technology solutions that best suit our unique computing environment. We selected the Arista switches because they provide the low latency, high density and reliability attributes our cluster, storage …

"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 …

“We worked well as a team. We went from proof of concept to migrating nearly 95% of our infrastructure in just a few months without any unplanned outages and only minor issues that were quickly resolved through simple configuration changes."

"Microsoft is committed to helping customers realize cloud computing benefits through our Cloud OS - a consistent platform spanning private clouds, service provider clouds and Windows Azure. The combination of Arista networking, including the Arista 7000 series switches and Microsoft’s Cloud OS, specifically System Center and Windows Server Hyper-V, delivers …

“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 …

“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 …

"Looking to the future, we are planning to upgrade our edge network to Arista7500 switches to allow us to benefit from more cost-effective connectivity and the advantage of having a single operating system across our architecture which makes management tasks easier and more efficient.”

"The HOPUS concept has proven it can work in a number of European cities and we are now looking to expand to new locations – a journey that we will make together with Arista."
