Edge delivery roundup: Arrcus 5G mobile edge, Acromove data transfer, GlobalDots partners with Cloudflare
Hyperscale networking software company Arrcus has announced support for scalable, high-density 10G/25G/100G/400G routing platforms enabled with Segment Routing (SR)-MPLS and SRv6. With this, Arrcus delivers simple, scalable, and seamless networking solutions for 5G mobile, edge, and access networks by providing high bandwidth, ultra-low latency, and carrier-grade reliability.
The emergence of 5G combined with Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) enables fast, low-latency network services to better serve customers, meet strict SLAs, and scale capacity, all at the lowest total cost of ownership (TCO). Offering these new 5G-enabled services can only be done by transforming networking infrastructure from the access to the core to any cloud. Arrcus claims it enables this end-to-end transformation by providing solutions that extend cloud compute resources to the edge of the network while utilizing 5G and edge computing to bring real-time applications to life.
With this announcement, Arrcus provides support for segment routing over a variety of data planes including MPLS (SR-MPLS) and IPv6 (SRv6) in its solutions and enhances the way the network is built in the backbone, the core, and the edge. Arrcus enables massive flexibility and scale of network services, providing any-to-any connectivity in a software-defined manner that is needed for today’s networking solutions.
In addition, Arrcus is also announcing new additions to its router portfolio based on Broadcom’s StrataDNX Jericho2C (J2C) and Qumran2C (Q2C) routing silicon. These new platforms are ideal for carrier ethernet, core, 5G edge, and access router markets and enable a new generation of switch-router systems with high port density and subscriber scale.
