Webscale networking for AI

Meet new reliability and performance demands with modern data center networking

Girl

Would you like stress-free cloud services with your AI data center infrastructure?

Reliability is more important than ever in today’s webscale networks. Is your data center network ready to deliver it? Or are you up late at night fixing issues?

Nokia webscale networking solutions are designed to deliver the ultra-reliability you need to thrive in the AI era. No high stress. Just high performance.

Build an ultra-reliable AI data center infrastructure

Nokia's Data Center Fabric solution includes a comprehensive portfolio of data center hardware platforms built to ensure that your back- and front-end networks can meet the performance demands of AI and traditional workloads. Our platforms prioritize quality, and we take pride in delivering defect-free software.

Take on any challenge with flexible AI fabrics

Our modern Data Center Fabric solution puts quality first. It lets you address fast-changing demands with greater freedom and control by bringing new levels of reliability, simplicity and adaptability to your AI data center infrastructure.

Open up your data center and cloud infrastructures 

All of our data center platforms run on the SR Linux network operating system (NOS). SR Linux uses the latest technological innovations, including network AI tools, to bring unmatched openness, extensibility and resiliency to your data center and cloud infrastructures.

Use automation to eliminate human error

Our Event-Driven Automation (EDA) platform simplifies network design, deployment and operations and ensures that your network always delivers the reliability and predictability you expect. It helps you take human error to zero by using AIOps to proactively detect issues in your network before they cause problems.

Extend performance and reliability beyond the fabric

Our data center gateway (DCGW) manages and controls all traffic coming in and out of the data centers. This includes traffic connected through peering points and data center interconnect. It provides high performance and reliable network connectivity to enable seamless communication between cloud data centers, the internet and end users.

What is webscale networking?

As a webscale company, you rely on data center and cloud networks to host and deliver the cloud services your customers demand.

With webscale networking, you can build cloud infrastructures and data center interconnect (DCI) platforms that meet growing IP interconnection and IP peering needs and dynamically connect your customers to the services they want, anytime and anywhere. These services can run in your own data center, in third-party data centers, on- and off-premises, in the edge and core, and in public, private and hybrid clouds.

Webscale networking is for all types of webscale companies and cloud service providers that need to massively scale their infrastructure to support the next generation of cloud services, especially AI-driven services. This includes companies such as carrier-neutral network operators, internet exchange providers, data center operators, colocation providers and hosting providers.

“Nokia’s data center fabric enables us to scale our GPU clusters while maintaining the reliability and performance needed to serve our customers with cutting-edge AI services. ”
David Power
CTO, Nscale
“Other than a reputation of high-quality products, Nokia's personal touch and community-driven approach has been a key differentiator and has stood out from day one, showing Nokia’s true commitment to this partnership.”
Marlin Cremers
Co-founder, Cloudbear
“With strong partners like Nokia, we know the UEC will drive the kind of standard to ensure broad AI adoption.”
J Metz
Chair, Ultra Ethernet Consortium
“SR Linux was built with a complete model-driven architecture across all its services, allowing for rich telemetry, which is distributed through modern management protocols like gNMI. This makes things easier for our operational team to customize tools to meet our specific needs.”
Scott Brookshire
CTO, OpenColo
“Nokia's integration into atNorth's compute environment is playing an essential role by creating the optimal networking connectivity to ensure that applications and workloads receive the compute they need in the lowest possible latency. This is of extreme importance to achieve scaling of very large HPC and AI workloads across tens and even hundreds of compute nodes. With this solution in place, we can provide automated and secure supercomputing to our customers in a cost-effective and sustainable way.”
Rui Gomes
HPC Operations Manager, atNorth
