CyberAgent created network of the cloud centers of processing using the solution Huawei CloudFabric

Thanks to the solution Huawei Cloud Fabric the Japanese internet- the company CyberAgent created network cloud data processing centers with the functionality allowing to analyze the purposes and intentions of users (IDN). On May 10, 2018 the company reported about it Huawei.

In process of distribution of technologies of cloud computing of the requirement to data processing centers constantly increase. Creation of DPC network with the increased availability and the scalability allowing to analyze the purposes and intentions of users (IDN) became one of key problems which CyberAgent needed to be solved.

The solution Huawei CloudFabric completely is from the fixed switches and uses architecture of spine-leaf and also supports such technologies as EVPN and VXLAN, and is integrated with management tools from third-party suppliers.

Main characteristics of the solution:

1. High capacity and access with the big buffer. CE8800 series switches used as nodes of "trunk" (spine nodes) have 64 ports 100GE. CE6800 series switches playing a role of "leaves" (leaf nodes) are equipped with uplink-ports 100GE, providing 100GE-connection within a data processing center. CE6870 series is characterized by the big buffer up to 4 GB thanks to what copes with sharp increase in volumes of traffic in network and ensures high-quality functioning of such services as video on demand, games and search.
2. High reliability of network that guarantees lack of breaks in service. Thanks to technology of aggregation of channels between devices (inter-device link aggregation technology), relationship between network devices evolves from consolidation in a stack in a c-plane before use of M-LAG technology, and then and M-LAG Lite technology without connection (coupling-free). It provides server access like "active-active" and uninterrupted updating of switches thanks to what service is made round the clock.
3. Compactness and simplicity in management that reduces capital investments (CAPEX) and operating expenses (OPEX). CE8860 series supports maps with four speeds (10GE, 25GE, 40GE and 100GE), has height only 2U, provides high density access to servers with different transmission rates of the interface and saves the place in server. Devices can be integrated by means of third-party tools, such as Ansible that provides integrated network and IT management.
