LAN Datacenter
Networking — Infrastructure

The Datacenter LAN carries east-west traffic at scale — the backbone connecting compute, storage and virtualization with ultra-low latency and high resilience.

Zero Trust Automation Observability AI-Driven

Technologies available for this scope

Cisco
Arista
Juniper
HPE Aruba Networking

What organizations face today

  • East-west traffic growth — virtualization, microservices, distributed workloads
  • Low-latency demands — storage fabrics, HPC, real-time applications
  • Fabric complexity — spine-leaf, EVPN-VXLAN, multi-tenancy
  • Micro-segmentation — workload isolation and Zero Trust inside the datacenter
  • Automation at scale — hundreds of ports, consistent configuration

Future Challenges

Network as Code

Fabric provisioning fully automated and versioned.

EVPN-VXLAN everywhere

Scalable, multi-tenant overlay fabrics as standard.

AI-driven fabric ops

Predictive congestion and failure avoidance.

Telemetry streaming

Real-time, high-resolution fabric observability.

Intent-based fabric

Business policy translated directly into fabric config.
