Case Study: Abraxas achieves future-proof cloud data center networking with Huawei Cloud Fabric

Building a Future-Proof Cloud Computing Center

Abraxas, a large ICT integrator and cloud service provider in Switzerland, faced challenges in upgrading its data center network to support flexible resource provisioning, seamless VM migrations, and reliable interconnections across multiple sites to handle growing customer demands. They partnered with vendor Huawei, which provided its Cloud Fabric Data Center Network Solution using CloudEngine series switches.

Huawei implemented a large TRILL-based Layer 2 network with EVN interconnections, creating a unified resource pool across three data centers. This solution provided a future-proof, SDN-ready architecture that reduced node count and lowered operational costs. The results included achieving flexible VM migration, robust disaster recovery capabilities, and a solid foundation for the next decade of business development for Abraxas.
