Open Network, OpenStack
Every large organization and managed service provider (MSP) is on a journey to attain the critical tenets of cloud. From self-service consumption to automation to pay-as-you-go economics, giants like AWS, Google and Microsoft are achieving massive benefits by adopting on-prem cloud solutions. In order to achieve competitive customer service, cloud service provider (CSP) networks must be agile, scalable, software-driven, cost-effective and able to address evolving business demands.
We’ve boiled down the five principles that CSPs use to design their web-scale networks. Find out how Cumulus Linux achieves all those principles, while significantly reducing cost and technical complexity.

CSPs design web-scale networks with a few key principles in mind. Here's an easy way to
remember them, using the acronym MORSE:
Modular
Relieves bottlenecks & failure points
Open
Gives you choice of hardware vendor
Reliable
Guarantees compliance & communal security
Scalable
Supports EVPN to simplify & segment traffic
Efficient
Increases efficiency

"Research shows that more CSPs are using cloud technologies for their internal IT applications … [CSPs] understand the scalability, lower hardware costs, flexibility and agility that web-scale networking delivers… Modern OSs have capabilities to reduce complexity and help CSPs get up to speed."
The bottom line
CSP networks must be Modular, Open, Reliable, Scalable and Efficient to compete and grow. Cumulus Linux offers all these principles, at significant CapEx & OpEx savings, and expeditious onboarding by providing Cumulus Linux trials at no cost.
