"Update: Looks like Arista's Ullal agrees. She emailed GigaOM
saying that deal was great for the industry because it validates
the concept of merchant silicon as opposed to the specialized
chips that Cisco and other networking vendors built. It also
moves Intel into the networking sector helping it diversify.
Now switch builders can choose from silicon from Intel, Broadcom
or Marvell. She added, "This is great for Arista as Fulcrum now
has backing of Intel (and truly address the enterprise to cloud
networking migration in a mainstream manner). Arista has been
one of Fulcrum's top customers.""
Jayshree Ullal, President and CEO of Arista Networks.
