Arista Networks’ Converged Cloud Fabric

Thanks to its Big Switch Networks purchase in February, data center and large campus networking specialist Arista inherited more SDN chops in the form of Big Switch’s Big Cloud Fabric, its next-generation data center switching fabric that offers network automation and visibility for software-defined data centers and cloud-native applications.

Santa Clara, Calif.-based Arista has since renamed Big Cloud Fabric as Converged Cloud Fabric, its automated fabric built with cloud networking design principles, according to the company.
