Avaya and Steel ORCA Collaborate on Next-Generation Software-Defined Data Center - Seite 2
Steel ORCA's implementation of Avaya Fabric Connect sets the stage for a full Avaya SDN Fx deployment later this year. The Avaya SDN Fx architecture is the first to deliver automation and programmability from the network core to the user edge, providing "connect anything, anywhere" simplicity to both Steel ORCA and its customers. An ideal foundation on which to build Internet of Everything strategies, this extensibility makes it much easier to accommodate and configure the escalating number of intelligent devices and users at the edge that need to be connected.
Quotes
"Many companies talk about being agile, but true agility can only be achieved through a constant focus on simplifying the organization and its underlying
infrastructure, without compromising its resiliency. When we looked at traditional networking solutions with their associated costs and complexity, we knew we had to move in the direction of
SDN using a fabric-based architecture. Avaya SDN Fx and Avaya Fabric Connect technologies simplify network administration for us -- which is critical in a demanding co-location and cloud computing
environment -- improve network resiliency and security for our clients, and reduce operating costs. We think that's a pretty powerful combination."
Richard Craig, CTO, Steel ORCA
