Network Cloud Hardware Reference Guide

Network Cloud Hardware Reference Guide In this guide, Network Cloud Hardware Reference Guide, we explore how by combining networking-optimized hardware with open standards alignment, DriveNets can ensure optimal performance while maintaining an open and disaggregated system. DriveNets Network Cloud solution is built in a disaggregated manner, similar to hyperscalers’ clouds. Network Cloud supports two models – stand-alone or cluster – both of which are based on standard white boxes using merchant silicon. Made up of dozens of white boxes that function as a single routing entity, the cluster-based model can scale up to 691.2 Tbps.

In this guide you will learn how about:

  • stand-alone or cluster model – both built on standard white boxes using merchant silicon
  • the main specifications of the currently certified white boxes and servers
  • supported cables and optics
