Applications are vital to your business.
The rise of micro-services and container endpoints is causing a dramatic change in traffic patterns across data centre networks. To adapt to application proliferation, vendors are turning to leaf-spine architecture solutions that enable performance and scale.
Here’s the problem: most vendors are limited by the constraints of merchant silicon. Application performance suffers when the required services are not available in merchant silicon and have to be implemented in software.
Cloud Scale ASICs offer greater scale and more services at an optimised price with capabilities that include segment routing, group-based security policy, network service headers and full-featured Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) overlays.
