As private clouds and shared storage grow, Arista Data Centre Switching helps IT teams keep east-west traffic local, control congestion and maintain predictable performance across server, storage and interconnect layers.
It suits workload pods, rack access and routed aggregation where growth, segmentation and traffic bursts strain the fabric. Dense 25GbE and 100GbE options, plus higher-capacity 400GbE switching, support standardised rollouts, stronger buffering and cleaner paths as environments scale.

Data centre teams need repeatable fabric designs for virtualisation, storage and database pods, with heavy east-west traffic kept close to the servers. Arista Data Centre Switching supports this with dense 25GbE and 100GbE leaf options, burst-tolerant switching and higher-speed aggregation for routed workloads.
Media teams need local high-speed paths for render nodes, ingest systems, edit suites and shared storage, where large files move continuously and delays affect production. Arista Data Centre Switching supports these environments with low-latency fabric designs and higher uplink capacity for file-heavy workflows.
Finance teams need predictable network paths for analytics, market data, risk engines and database acceleration, with enough isolation to separate sensitive application domains. Arista Data Centre Switching supports contained, policy-aware fabrics that combine 25GbE or 100GbE rack access with routed aggregation for time-sensitive workloads.
Software teams need private-cloud and CI/CD fabrics where build runners, container hosts, artifact stores and test databases move large datasets repeatedly. Arista Data Centre Switching supports scalable lab and platform environments with dense server access, stronger uplinks and routed boundaries for multi-tenant use.
Telecoms teams need flexible fabrics for NFV, packet-core and MEC labs, where appliances, traffic generators and service chains are staged together and often mix 100GbE with lower-speed links. Arista Data Centre Switching supports this with compact leaf, routed aggregation and high-scale interconnect options.
