188 Arista Networks Testimonials

"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."

"In high-performance computing, low-latency performance is key to achieving optimal and efficient results. Ethernet is capable of delivering performance on par with InfiniBand when it comes to clustering applications. In fact, Intel and Arista Networks recently demonstrated a high performance, low latency cluster using Schlumberger’s ECLIPSE reservoir simulation software with Intel’s 10 Gigabit Ethernet iWARP adapter and Arista’s 7124S switch. We are excited about the improved performance in the new Arista 7124SX switch and the sub-500ns port-to-port latency that can deliver better application performance for our customers."

"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’ve been very happy with Arista, and our customers are thrilled with the results they are seeing. Our HostedWiFi customers are receiving above and beyond what they were initially asking for.”

“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.”

"Cloudera Enterprise, the core of an enterprise data hub, gives our customers access to all their data whether structured or unstructured. It's the foundation for the next generation of data management infrastructure, and provides insights that haven't been possible until now. Arista's Map Reduce Tracer provides similar insights to network administrators in understanding network performance and big data workloads across a variety of large data center and computing environments offering us high availability, which is critical for our success."

"As enterprises continue to build data centers on cloud computing technologies, it is critical that they can easily integrate with Hadoop-based systems for business analytics. We're encouraged by the latest innovations from Arista, which promises to deliver advanced network provisioning capabilities for seamless integration with Software Driven Cloud Networks that complement and extend the capabilities of Cloudera's next generation data management tools for the enterprise."

"We looked at a number of options and only Arista’s implementation of universal spine plus FlexRoute offers us the performance benefits of deploying a traditional routing platform with cost savings and flexibility of a switching architecture. In terms of performance and reliability, the Arista solution has been faultless and integrated seamlessly with the other elements within our plant with enough density and headroom to allow us to scale to meet new business demands."

“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.”

"Working with Arista's EOS™ network telemetry architecture our Riverbed® Cascade® Shark and Riverbed® OPNET AppResponse Xpert™ application-aware network performance management solutions provide critical insight into the real-time and historical performance of virtual and physical workloads. With our combined technologies, Riverbed and Arista provide IT operations with actionable insight into the factors that determine the success of cloud-based data center architectures."

"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 is the best product we tested."

"What Arista gives us is the software solution that allows us to build a living and breathing network and where it grows from this point onwards is in our own hands.”

“The Arista approach was so flexible, If you consider, we started with just two leafs per datacentre and campus and, two years later, we now have a spine and 6 leafs per datacentre. In effect, we expanded our core by three times the capacity in just two years without any problems. That’s the real benefit, you can adapt quickly, when you need it – and that’s really cool.”

“It is definitely easier to script something now, before we had to consider like three different types of switch operating systems all from the same vendor - but with different command sets and config commands. But now, it’s way simpler to create something and roll it out in the whole environment with just one config that is valid for every device.”

"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 and network infrastructure require."
