“Virtual switches have become an integral part of data center networking, however performance becomes a significant impediment at 10Gb/s and higher data rates. Netronome Agilio CX SmartNICs save significant CPU cycles while improving performance for server-based networking features such as virtual tunnel end points and policies per VM or tenant, enabling higher service levels at lower cost.”
- Chen Li, SDN Project Manager at China Mobile
“With the NFV market entering production phase, efficient operations require a clean demarcation between VNF services and SDN/NFV infrastructure networking layers while being able to meet the performance levels needed for the next phase of NFV realization. Agilio SmartNIC technology from Netronome enables Ericsson to satisfy mission-critical enterprise workloads and meet cost-per- bit challenge of 5G and fiber access evolution.”
- Francois Lemarchand head of NFVI product strategy at Ericsson
“Programmable networking data path implementation in hardware can enable differentiated performance and service levels on a per NFV application or per customer basis. The P4 data path programming language, as supported by Netronome’s Agilio CX SmartNICs and related development tools, is simple and hardware agnostic, allowing for rapid and future-proofed networking datapath innovation.”
- Elena Romero, Head of Product Line SDN & Policy Control at Ericsson
“The Juniper Networks Contrail vRouter, one of the key components of the Contrail SDN solution, is ideal for orchestrating and automating cloud networks. The Contrail vRouter and its ability to provide highly scalable secure virtual networks, combined with SmartNICs such as Netronome’s Agilio CX, allows the acceleration of a broad set of networking functions and the ability to evolve rapidly with changing needs.”
- Ankur Singla, Corporate Vice President and General Manager of Cloud Software at Juniper Networks.
“Proven and robust cloud management with Mirantis OpenStack enables service providers and enterprises to accelerate their SDN and NFV adoption,” said “Netronome’s Agilio platform supports standard OVS interfaces, helping to maintain a high level of cloud management user experience while delivering hardware acceleration and resulting efficiencies.”
- Kamesh Pemmaraju, Vice President of Product Marketing, Mirantis
“Netronome’s Agilio SmartNICs provide an excellent platform to showcase Tieto’s expertise in NFV solutions. The Tieto and Netronome collaboration has demonstrated a 5X performance improvement over conventional solutions for virtual Evolved Packet Core (vEPC) while preserving the benefits of virtualization on COTS hardware.”
- Nicholas Hamblin, Head of Cloud and IP Business Unit at Tieto
