关于客户
Radiográfica Costariccense S.A. (RACSA) is the leading Internet Services Provider (ISP) in Costa Rica, offering commercial and residential internet services. As a public service of the Costa Rican government, RACSA is responsible for developing and offering new technologies to the public, including telephony, wireless services, and distributed applications. Among its latest initiatives is providing cloud-based application services for corporate and residential customers. For a monthly subscription, customers can use virtual servers and desktops configured with applications and storage for personal or business use. RACSA's commitment to innovation and technology advancement is evident in its efforts to provide high-quality services while adhering to government energy mandates and environmental considerations.
挑战
RACSA faced the challenge of designing a cloud computing architecture that was both high-performing and energy-efficient. The need for high bandwidth access and reliable data center performance was crucial to offset the lower performance of client PCs used by subscribers. Additionally, government energy mandates required the design to be as energy-efficient as possible, which was challenging given the cooling demands in Costa Rica's tropical climate. RACSA opted for containerized data centers to minimize the carbon footprint, but this introduced the requirement for high performance in a compact space. Storage systems were already compact, limiting options for higher density or performance, but RACSA was committed to implementing the best-performing and most efficient technologies in their cloud applications solution.
解决方案
RACSA implemented Arista's 7100 series switches to meet the high-performance and energy-efficiency requirements of their cloud computing architecture. The Arista switches provided non-blocking, wire-speed 10GbE on all ports, offering the flexibility to leverage existing infrastructure. The solution was cost-effective and high-performing, meeting RACSA's needs for scalability and reliability. The switches' compact size and high density were ideal for the containerized data centers, which required efficient use of space. RACSA also utilized Arista's open extensible Operating System (EOS) for network management, alongside F5 for load balancing, Checkpoint for firewalls, and Juniper for transit routing. This combination of technologies ensured that RACSA's virtual applications data center could serve thousands of corporate and residential subscribers effectively.

During the 2011/2012 cricket season, 700,000 consumers downloaded the Cricket Live Australia application. Vodafone needed to be able to meet customer demand, but didn’t want to invest in additional resources that would be underutilized during cricket’s off-season.
