 Arista Networks Inc.
Arista Networks was founded to deliver networking solutions for large data center and high-performance computing environments. Arista delivers a portfolio of Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet switches that redefine network architectures, bring extensibility to networking, and dramatically change the price/performance of data centre networks.
At the core of Arista's platform is the Extensible Operating System (EOS™), a ground-breaking network operating system with single-image consistency across hardware platforms, and modern core architecture enabling in-service upgrades and application extensibility.
Arista's Flagship Switching Platform: 5x the Performance, 1/10 the Power, Half the Footprint
Arista 7500 Performance

Extensible Modular Operating System
Arista EOS™ was designed to provide a foundation for the business needs of next-generation data centres and cloud networks. EOS is a highly modular software design based on a unique multi-process state sharing architecture that completely separates networking state from the processing itself. This enables fault recovery and incremental software updates on a fine-grain process basis without affecting the state of the system.
Arista EOS provides extremely robust and reliable data centre communication services while delivering security, stability, openness, modularity and extensibility. This unique combination offers the opportunity to significantly improve the functionality and evolution of next generation data centres.
Modularity
· Software fault containment to single modules for superior system stability
· Modules may be upgraded independent of the others
High Availability
· In-service software upgrades (ISSU) of individual modules
· Stateful fault repair of modules for automatic self healing
Third Party Extensibility
· Customizable to particular customer needs
· Native integration with virtualized environments
Manageability
· Familiar industry standard CLI eases management tasks
· Easily adaptable to in-house network management systems
Arista delivers a portfolio of Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet switches that redefine network architectures, bring extensibility to networking, and dramatically change the price/performance of data centre networks.
