IP Infusion’s OcNOS and an open networking strategy hits all the right notes in terms of cost, support, and features.
Based in Omaha, Nebraska, Scott Data is a nationally recognized data center facility and one of only fourteen multi-tenant data center facilities in the nation to receive Tier 3 Certification in design and construction from the Uptime Institute. Tier 3 Certification is awarded to facilities designed, tested, and validated to be concurrently maintainable.
An open networking strategy using OcNOS with open networking hardware from UfiSpace, Edgecore Networks, and Celestica provides an efficient alternative to legacy vendors. Heterogeneous hardware support enabled Scott Data to mitigate supply chain procurement challenges, reducing equipment lead time from years to just weeks. An open networking strategy was also cost-sensitive, with required budgets a fraction of competing solutions from closed-system vendors.
