188 Arista Networks Testimonials

“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.”

“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.”

“We weren’t just looking for a piece of hardware, we were looking for a partner. The impact of this project will affect not just us but research projects around the world and we were embarking on a bit of a journey of discovery.”

"Arista’s EOS, coupled with LANZ allow for unprecedented integration with application latency analysis platforms such as our TipOff precision instrumentation suite, providing customers with a holistic and complete view of end to end latency dynamics within their trading applications."

"As an established partner of Arista’s, we have developed a strong working relationship with its team over the years. With Arista’s low-latency technology already forming an intrinsic component of one of our solutions, we have pioneered integration with EOS and LANZ to closely couple our platforms. The 7150 Series allows us to further integrate with extensive enhancements to LANZ and innovative features including precision hardware time stamping."

"Overall, this has been a very successful project for us that has removed much of the complexity of our network while building a solid foundation that allows us to keep scaling the network to better serve the business.”

“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.”

“We had already upgraded our old Medialaan studios in Vilvoorde to a hybrid IP and SDI infrastructure to support SMPTE 2110, but the new facility at Mediaplein was effectively a blank slate which allowed us the luxury of being able to specify exactly what we wanted for our IP connectivity from the ground up.”

"The high density 40GbE and 100GbE interfaces, deep packet buffers, SDN features and the robustness of EOS makes the Arista 7500 an ideal spine platform for our network. Arista continues to innovate on programmability with it's Linux based EOS and was a key factor in deciding on the 7500E for our Big Data needs."

“We have been growing quickly over the last few years, but the network infrastructure was starting to become unreliable and a bottleneck for growth because any outage would have a massive negative impact on our operations and indeed global shipping.”

“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.”

"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 capability to support this new IT Infrastructure and with 10GbE coming built into servers, and a near-term future of 40Gb and 100Gb Ethernet it is time for the networking industry to take the same order of magnitude performance steps forward that the server and storage market have. The Arista 7500 modular switching platform is the first of its kind built to support this next-generation of networking requirements where high-density 10GbE is the default connectivity, Ethernet is lossless, power efficiency is critical, and space is at a premium."

“I really took a risk moving off the incumbent vendor, but it has more than paid off. The network is so stable I haven’t had to touch the network much in 3 years.”

"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."

"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."
