188 Arista Networks Testimonials

“We are building 11 new data centers worldwide in 12 months, We utilize the power of standardization to build a stronger network which enables our production and supply chain to bring the products to our customer faster and trouble-free.”

“In order to have the maximum scalability we selected to use a L3 mesh backbone between switch and transport traffic using VXLAN encapsulation, This particular configuration offers the required flexibility and simple provisioning operation in order to provide effective network transport, for Fixed Mobile itself and our wholesale customers.”

“We instead made the decision to build all of the core platforms and infrastructure ourselves, Many of the systems were completely unique and we were keen to ensure that performance and reliability were absolutely part of what made our platform stand out from the crowd, so we made technology investment a major priority.”

“As an industry first, there was a bit of a learning curve, but we had no issues with the Arista switch. One of the things we were concerned about was unlike a data center where a switch is always on, we have to deploy on a new site for every job and switching equipment on and off needs to be predictable and have reasonably quick startup - in this respect, the Arista switch is up and running in under 8 minutes which is faster than some of the other elements within the truck.”

“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 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."

"At Joyent, we're working to make the entire data center into a unified, fully programmable computing platform. Our cloud computing technology allows thousands of companies to meet the needs of modern high-scale applications, including instantly managing variable load, scaling resources on demand, and re-architecting in real time. We're proud to partner with Arista in bringing the Arista 7500 10GbE switching technology to market providing our customers with increased network performance while enabling security, density, stability, and flexibility that is not available in any other environment."

“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.”

“25G offers us a good path for the future, but when we looked at the market we felt that some of the vendors were not ready and others were only just entering the market with very basic products.”

“Our need for network devices that could process 400 Gbps of traffic at a wire rate limited our options to the major vendors. Arista Networks offered not only a high level of cost performance but also gave us the ability to use a transceiver supporting fiber optic transmission multiplexing. This support was important to us because it satisfied our need for a long-distance, high-speed connection.”

"We are effectively running the Arista switches as the core networking switches and so far we have had no issues around the latency or reliability. The cost per port is around a quarter of what anybody else could match, even with educational discounts, and we are using only 26 of the 48 ports giving us plenty of scope to grow."

"Combining Myricom's industry-leading programmable network adapters and versatile software with Arista's innovative switching platform will enable customers to leverage high performance networking for an even broader range of applications."

"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.”

"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."

"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 on the promise of Software Driven Cloud Networking for our mutual customers – in their datacenters or in hybrid clouds."
