The need for smart, high-speed switching is the result 0f a combination of fairly new networking trends whose overall effect is a cyber tsunami of data traffic:
- Cloud computing and an associated requirement for intensive network virtualization
- The pervasiveness of BYOD computing
- Bandwidth-intensive rich media applications
- Social media for business
- The popularity of Big Data in enterprise data analytics
Private, public and hybrid clouds are only financially feasible because of virtualization technology. Virtualized infrastructures slash costs by allowing aggressively high resource utilization and demanding minimal real estate and power consumption. But this also requires that comparatively sparse network resources have to accommodate substantial amounts of data traffic. The BYOD revolution has created a dramatic increase in the number of mobile users that have be supported by business networks, and these clients tend to run a high percentage of data-intensive, HD video apps. Social business technologies are displacing email as the main enabler of collaboration and is producing a growing requirement for bandwidth. Enterprises who want to remain competitive are resorting to Big Data techniques to mine vast and disparate repositories of information, which in turn generates Big Traffic. These computing trends are fairly new, and combined they cause a critical need for a new generation of switches that feature much higher speed, intelligence, uptime and ease of management than older solutions were designed to deliver.
Cisco's current portfolio of Catalyst switches are designed for the distribution/core levels of campus deployments where office workers must be supported with predictable performance, strict client access management, tight group isolation, application intelligence, and wired/wireless convergence. Catalyst series switches address the demand for speed and control with capabilities that include high-port-count 10, 40, and 100 Gigabit Ethernet support, switching capacity as high as 11.4 Tbps for each switch and double that per system, a powerful suite of technologies including Easy Virtual Network (EVN) to facilitate the creation of virtual networks, Virtual Switching System technology for switch failover with instant backup switch restoration and 99.999% uptime, IPv6 capability, Application Visibility and Control to optimize system resource usage, and sophisticated Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities for video data prioritization.
Cisco Catalyst switches allow businesses of any size to benefit from incorporating intelligent switching and routing services into their network architecture, creating an environment that can deal with real-time needs, scale to support future growth, guard vital information, and differentiate and control processes to enhance network productivity.
