“We looked at a number of possible solutions and Arista offered us the only completely lossless architecture which delivered the best performance, lowest latency with deep support for multicast which is vital for this project.”

“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 …

“Our Visual Effects and Post-Production Studio needed to connect a new central data storage offering an overall connectivity improvement for each department. Studio work with data is quite specific compared to conventional network traffic demands. We are working with a huge amount of data, which must be available to the …

"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 turned to technologies that can be scaled easily and provide high reliability and survival time, taking into account the service scope and requirements. In addition to the needs of existing systems, services and users, we also considered the rapidly increasing data center demand and traffic volumes.”

"Arista’s new 7124SX switch reflects a major advancement for financial trading and ultra low latency services. Ultra low latency applications also require enterprise-wide network analysis, visibility, and reporting, which makes NIKSUN and Arista an ideal complement for hyper-scale computing environments."

“The Arista switches will allow us to work smarter not harder, and staff and students will certainly notice and benefit from the performance hike delivered by the upgrade.”

"The critical requirements for the network in the data center have been changing - Intel's Nehalem processor, Solid-State Storage, mobile Virtual Machines, and the ever increasing demands for space, power, and cooling have stressed the data center past a breaking point. The Gigabit Ethernet network of yester-year is waning in …

"I’m excited by Arista’s 7500 chassis because it makes very large Enterprise Data Cloud deployments much simpler. It extends the incremental ‘top of rack’ approach with a 384 wire-speed ports aggregation switch, enabling a flat 10 gig network for tens of thousands of compute and storage nodes."

"Broadcom, a global leader in semiconductors for wired and wireless communications, is pleased to work with Arista to deliver the Arista 7500, a platform that delivers a perfect combination of high performance, dense 10GbE, low latency, and feature richness built specifically for mission critical data center applications."

"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 …

"With data transaction volumes regularly exceeding that of Twitter, Flurry looked to Arista Networks’ switching solutions to significantly and cost-effectively increase performance and reduce latency of our network. As we plan to add hundreds of servers over the next two quarters, the addition of Arista’s 10 gigabit switches offers an …

“We use different vendors to build our networks and focus on ease of scaling the network, taking into account further business growth. When choosing a product, we evaluate the life cycle of this product for us, the minimum life cycle for a hardware platform is 4 years and above, for …

“We are doing some quite interesting and technical challenging things with the Arista switches and when we needed to speak to an Arista tech support, we would actually get an expert, not just somebody reading from a script – that was phenomenal.”

“Overall, this has been a very successful project, and it highlights UKSH in a very positive light for new researchers who want to work in our campus, knowing that the IT environment is able to serve their needs – both now – and into the future,”
