Edgecore Networks
Edgecore offers a new communications architecture to businesses and enterprises, which natively uses the global model of open networking. It benefits clients by providing dramatically improved communications performance, flexibility and lower opex and capex.
Edgecore lowers the entry barrier to acquire open networking technologies including cutting-edge hardware designs for Customer Premise Equipment routers, Data Centre switches and open software, such as SONiC.
This new model allows small businesses to afford enterprise-grade hardware and software that in the past has only been affordable by large enterprises, that is capable of managing the exponential amounts of data being generated. In addition, it allows enterprises to save considerably on network opex and capex, reducing the total cost of ownership / TCO.
Open networking has become the standard in Europe and the USA, driven by hyper-scalers taking advantage of new hardware and software available.
Traditional telecommunications provider networks and the services they offer to their customers are all designed in a similar way using legacy equipment and are stuck in an expensive hardware refresh cycle.
Edgecore hardware provides:
- Dynamic performance adjustment for latency sensitive traffic such as voice and video
- Continuous monitoring and prioritisation
- Application recognition
- Traffic rerouting
- Load balancing
- Bandwidth control
- Automation failover
All of which MPLS cannot provide
The benefits of open networking:
- Move from expensive integrated hardware and software → low-cost separate hardware and flexible software, making upgrades and network expansion affordable.
- Slow to update → simple to automate and seamless to upgrade
- Scarce computing resources → designed for edge routing
- Unable to adopt new technologies until equipment vendors update → able to innovate quickly to add AI, 5G etc
- Heightened security risks → enhanced security capabilities including;
- Quick software updates and patches
- Choose best-of-breed security tools
- Scalable security independent of hardware
- More precise security controls, access rules, threat detention
- Isolation and separation of controls and data to contain security breaches
- Centralised visibility and management simplifying monitoring and incident response
