29 Big Switch Networks Testimonials

"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."

"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 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."

"Big Switch’s technology and UI are the best around. They also have the ability to leverage multiple low cost/high quality hardware vendors. Big Monitoring Fabric has added scale and usability to our tap aggregation strategy while keeping costs down."

"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."

“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.”

"Cloud applications such as Big Data and VDI are demanding rich features and very high network performance from today's network infrastructure. Using widely-adopted Broadcom StrataXGS(R) Trident and Trident-II based hardware platforms and leveraging the complete, cloud-scale feature set of our silicon, Big Switch is extending their Switch Light OS to offer a hyperscale SDN fabric solution to enterprise and service provider networks."

"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."

"Software-defined networking and network virtualization enable more robust, responsive IT infrastructures. Big Switch Networks Open SDN architecture and the company's commitment to open standards and open APIs, with support across the entire network including physical and virtual infrastructure, provides a long term path to network agility, network innovation, and greater overall utilization."

"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."

"Today, understanding application performance across the network requires a holistic operational view that helps manage performance to efficiently deliver applications to the end user. Riverbed's SteelCentral performance management and Big Tap's scale-out monitoring fabric provide the visibility needed to diagnose and cure issues before end users notice a problem."

“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.”

"If you have a vSAN cluster, Big Cloud Fabric is the best choice for system management. It has opened up the ‘network black box’ for vSAN managers. We now have an easy-to-manage HCI environment. Big Cloud Fabric was significantly easier and faster to deploy, when compared to our prior data center network solution and it has provided ongoing operational efficiencies due to the superior technical architecture. Additionally we have experienced zero network configuration errors since deploying the solution."

"Software-Defined Infrastructure is transforming legacy data centers by bringing new levels of speed, agility and ease of management at dramatically reduced costs. The combination of Nexenta's Software-Defined Storage solutions and Big Switch's Software-Defined Networking powered Big Cloud Fabric enables customers to deploy multi-tenant cloud infrastructures on industry standard hardware with unprecedented flexibility and operational simplicity."

"Our Open Networking initiative is a prime example of delivering to our customers innovative technology, services and choice to embrace Software Defined Networking – pairing Big Tap Monitoring Fabric software into a solution that brings Dell Open Networking platforms to market – to maximize existing and future network investments."
