Challenge	Ajubeo, a high-performance cloud infrastructure services provider, was tasked with enabling customers to go to market quickly and cost-effectively using reliable, robust cloud services and cloud infrastructure. As an infrastructure and services company, Ajubeo delivers multiple gigabytes of data to its customers on a daily basis, providing compute resources, storage, and network connectivity. The company aimed to virtualize all aspects of the enterprise network architecture. Ajubeo executives set a company goal to create a customer-centric culture. To provide customers with the best infrastructure and cloud services possible, Ajubeo assembled a best-in-class network with solutions from technology leaders. Ajubeo stacked its network with solutions that deliver maximum performance and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) optimization, and positioned Brocade® switches and routers throughout its networking environment—at the access, core, distribution, and edge layers. With these industry-leading, cost-effective solutions, Ajubeo can offer better pricing while outperforming its competition. Read More
About Customer	Ajubeo is a high-tech company that provides high-performance cloud infrastructure services to other companies such as Datavail and NetApp. The company was established in 2011 and has since been helping other companies go to market quickly and avoid excessive capital investment.

Solution	Ajubeo uses a powerful combination of Brocade VDX 6720 Switches, Brocade NetIron CER 2000 Series routers, and Brocade ICX 6610 Switches. The company deployed Brocade VDX 6720 Switches in a Brocade VCS fabric at the core with a fully redundant active/active 40 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) network backbone. These switches also provide 10 GbE connectivity to the network edge. Ajubeo relies on Brocade ICX 6610 Switches at the access layer to enable its many servers to connect to the network services. In addition, Ajubeo uses these switches at the edge for redundancy. Compact NetIron CER 2000 routers also are on the network edge and connect to customers through standard BGP routing, Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS), and Virtual Private LAN (VPLS) Service. As a result, Ajubeo can offer customers direct MPLS connectivity options from their on-premise infrastructure to Ajubeo’s cloud infrastructure at any cloud hub. Deploying the Brocade Ethernet fabric at Ajubeo was straightforward and pain-free. The modular nature of Brocade VDX 6720 Switches provides a unified, consolidated, and flatter architecture that makes a virtual data center much easier to manage and more scalable.
