29 Big Switch Networks Testimonials

"Our organization has experienced a mindset change, BCF has positively altered how work is performed. T-Mobile selected BCF for its OpenStack environment to drive innovation and improve business process agility. Controller configuration & programmability were the “killer” BCF features our team was most excited about."

"Cloud orchestration is critical for enterprises and service providers building public and/or private cloud environments. Citrix's industry-leading and scalable CloudPlatform orchestration with Big Switch's SDN-based and zero-touch Big Cloud Fabric provides rapid change velocity as well as tremendous operational simplicity for deploying cost-optimized and scalable cloud infrastructures."

"We wanted to find a commercial product where we didn't have to sit down and write code for hours. The idea for us is plug it in, get a basic configuration going, and then tweak it from there."

"Big Data analytics has traditionally been complex to deploy and manage, with high equipment and operational cost that effectively shuts out the enterprise. That's about to change. BlueData’s upcoming Big Data platform in conjunction with Big Switch's SDN-based Big Cloud Fabric will offer the first true Big Data private cloud solution that is multi-tenant, operationally simple and ultra-low cost, so companies of all sizes can get the same value out of their Big Data as the big players already do."

"Today's big data analytics tools rely on Apache Hadoop as the platform for drawing new, powerful insights from data in a highly-scalable, flexible and cost effective manner. Integrating the Hortonworks Data Platform on Big Switch's bare metal- and SDN-based Big Cloud Fabric provides a scalable, multi-tenant and cost-optimized solution that expands the power of open source Hadoop to our joint enterprise and service provider customers."

“Like water pipes, we must create a network with an architecture that can be simply scaled out without requiring additional settings and where all the functionality of routers and firewalls are virtualized or we will again face the problems of the past. BCF is the only available fabric with the simplicity to match those needs.”

"Enterprises and service providers are increasingly using Ubuntu OpenStack to build their cloud infrastructure. Ubuntu is leading provider of OpenStack in production, together with SDN powered Big Cloud fabric it provides a turn-key OpenStack cloud solution to attain tremendous application agility and operational efficiency."

"As SDN is gaining momentum, it is critical to define the role of security technologies within this new architecture. By working together with Big Switch, a Blue Coat Business Assurance Technology Partner, our goal is not to simply build security into SDN deployments, but to provide security solutions that empower businesses to take advantage of SDN concepts to improve overall network security and efficiency."

“Most of the products available in the market were based on overlay networking technologies. We had almost given up on finding the right solution, and considered developing the technology inhouse.”

"The only reason to form a partnership is to bring a better product or service to our clients; with that in mind, we're eager to work with Big Switch Networks through the Technology Alliance Partnership and take clients to the next stage of network monitoring. Using Garland Technology products to See every bit, byte, and packet™ within Big Switch Open SDN architecture offers clients a clear and cost-effective way to add flexibility, agility, and scale to their enterprise network."

"Check Point is proud to partner with the best solution providers to ensure that virtualized deployments can benefit from our innovative multi-layered security solutions. SDN as a whole represents an important evolution in networking technologies and Big Switch is one of the pioneers of this space. Customers can now reap the efficiencies inherent in the Big Switch Cloud Fabric environment, while ensuring that their virtual infrastructure is secured from the latest cyber threats."

“We wanted more points of input than our traditional NPB could handle economically, so we decided to go with a white box solution and Big Monitoring Fabric from Big Switch Networks to gather packets and forward them to the tools as needed…We are using SDN first in our monitoring space, and evaluating where we want to go next.”

"By delivering highly reliable, standards - based switches for data center top-of-rack deployments and spine networks, Edge-Core Networks helps customers reduce the cost of their private and public cloud infrastructures. Edge-Core’s Gigabit Ethernet, 10G Ethernet and 40G Ethernet hardware switches, developed by its parent company, Accton Technology, together with Big Switch Networks’ Big Cloud Fabric and Big Tap products provide customers with complete SDN solutions that reduce capital and operating costs while enabling more rapid provisioning of new applications and capacity."

"Big Mon has helped us leap forward in automation and will reduce CAPEX and OPEX. It has significantly enhanced network visibility and the automation aspect is great too. Big Switch has definitely saved us considerable man hours. Loving it!"

"Big Mon has been a life saver. It is very cost-effective, requires minimal setup, is easy to manage, and we get more features without having to license each one we use. With Big Mon, we were able to get the port density and the capability we needed with half the capital investment, compared to the ‘leading’ NPB vendor. We’ve met all our objectives with room for growth."
