Arista has joined forces with Cloud Distribution to drive partner recruitment and bring its software based data centre solutions to market.
Figures suggest that the global data centre switching market will grow more than 30% between 2016 and 2021.
Bruce Hockin, Director of Data Centre Solutions at Cloud Distribution, stated "We recognise the huge opportunity for partners to capitalise on data centre growth, which is why we have created a new data centre infrastructure team purely focused on this market."
Arista Senior VP Global Operations and Marketing, Mark Foss, added: "Our partnership with Cloud Distribution will help facilitate the customer shift towards cloud networking."
Arista partner Flomatik's MD Ben Allwright anticipates forming stronger customer relationships. "Arista is a natural extension of our traditional network services offering, allowing us to drive value deeper into the data centre, creating a high performance end-to-end solution for our customers," he stated.
