"Deploying software defined data centers requires the ability to scale both network capacity and security. The Arista 7000 family and Spline architecture is designed to accelerate the network scale at an unparalleled price/performance. When coupled with the Palo Alto Networks next-generation security platform, which is purpose-built to operate in today’s …

"We selected Arista's switch because of its unique capabilities related to flexible control and provisioning. We are developing extensions for Arista's EOS that will enable it to be integrated into large scale distributed systems, providing major new capabilities for network services that can quickly adjust to changing traffic requirements."

"The Arista team is always open to new ideas and exploring new ways of distributing market data and supporting our customers with the latest in financial trading and Ethernet technologies. Working together, we will create a completely new class and category of product for the financial industry."

"As customers continue to leverage our VMware NSX™ network virtualization platform as a core component of the software-defined data center, Arista is an important VMware NSX partner. The addition of support for the OVSDB on the Arista 7000 series with hardware VXLAN tunnel endpoint (VTEP) is another example of our …

“I’ve been building networks at AWE for 27 years. This project has been really exciting as it’s the first time we’ve set up a whole new network from scratch and implemented the latest state of the art equipment. Based on the commitments made to the business 12 months ago, working …

"StumbleUpon has been experiencing sustained traffic growth typical of large social networks and Arista was able to provide the most efficient and scalable datacenter networking platform. The low power consumption and high density of Arista's switches is unmatched by the competition."

“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.”

"The decision to go with Arista also gave us an opportunity to revaluate our architecture and start to take advantage of extensibility features within the platform such as buffer monitoring, that offer us more visibility over traffic flow, and to take proactive capacity planning measures to avoid any future issues.”

“We entered a market already dominated by established players, who also offer wholesale connectivity. Our aim was to provide ISP customers with superior products offering the fastest available broadband.”

“The Arista team has been with us across the entire project and helped us to deliver a successful upgrade,” says Ripepi, “The new network will better support our researchers and scientists to continue their pioneering work and improve collaboration with colleagues across the world."

“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 …

“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.”
