Cisco Nexus 400G: Delivering Ecosystem-wide Data Center Networking Innovation

The global pandemic drastically increased the adoption of work-from-home (WFH) policies and digital workforce models in many, if not all, enterprise organizations — and successfully so. In fact, many organizations plan to retain some level of WFH policies well into 2021 and beyond, even after the pandemic recedes. These changes are driving higher levels of adoption of collaboration platforms and other digital technologies that are enabling people to work, live, and educate safely.

All of that means that data center networking, capacity, and management is top of mind for IT leaders. Demand for increased ethernet speeds, virtual data center builds, rapid IoT development, and hybrid/multi-cloud expansion, the need for better data center networking resources has never been greater. There is no doubt that data center networking decision makers must take a comprehensive approach in understanding the strategic portfolio resources essential to enabling their implementations.

In our latest white paper, Cisco Nexus 400G: Delivering Ecosystem-wide Data Center Networking Innovation — done in partnership with Cisco — we explore the explosion of these capacity demands and why 400G is a promising evolving technology that supports an immediate need in fiber optics with a comparatively low operational expense.

In this white paper you’ll learn:

  • Why 400G data networking adoption needs a holistic approach
  • Major 400G data center networking challenges and trends
  • Key verticals driving the 400G use case
  • An exploration of the best portfolio for the fulfillment of unique customer 400G needs.

When it comes to decisions around the data center, a strategic approach is table stakes in today’s business climate. Data center networking decision-makers must understand the needs of their organizations to find the right solution and partner to deliver.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
