With the VMware NSX platform, the bank's IT team deployed security controls inside the data center network for a fraction of the cost that would have been required using a hardware-centric approach. The combination of performance and automation delivered by VMware NSX has allowed Umpqua to cost-effectively operationalize micro-segmentation. Implementation has been rapid, and the team has gone from VMware NSX initial discussions to full production in less than two months. Adoption of network virtualization has made remote provisioning, management, orchestration and control of the bank's infrastructure possible.

Arista's network programmable underlay, utilizing Arista Extensible Operating System, EOS, network APIs and hardware enabled VXLAN Tunnel Endpoints (VTEPS) and the VMware NSX network virtualization platform, support a software-defined data center for both enterprise and service provider customers. The Arista and VMware integrated networking solution combines award-winning network infrastructure with a complete network virtualization platform enabled to simplify management and provisioning, speed service delivery, reduce costs and create opportunities for competitive differentiation. The tools provided by Arista and VMware put control and visibility back in the hands of the network and systems administrators.

In the last three years, TWG has expanded through acquisitions in Canada and the U.S. With each acquisition, TWG's IT staff is counted on to integrate its backend systems with those of newly acquired companies within 30 days. To support its continuing growth and achieve increased efficiency, TWG has adopted server virtualization more broadly to help rationalize and eliminate duplicate hardware and software systems. Beyond reducing costs through hardware and software consolidation, TWG is also focused on lowering power and cooling consumption costs.
