HPE Aruba Networking CX 10000 Switch Series, industry's first DPU-enabled switches, delivers a flexible and innovative approach to address the security performance, agility, and scalability demands of both traditional enterprise data centers and emerging distributed, edge and co-located centers of data. The switch series is a category of switches that combines the best-of-breed network operating system, HPE Aruba Networking CX Switch Operating System (AOS-CX), for data center, campus, and edge in addition to the fully programmable DPUs. This allows the switches to deliver software-defined services inline, at scale, with wire-rate performance and orders of magnitude scale and performance improvements over traditional L2/L3 switches at a fraction of their TCO. This allows the flexibility to enable service delivery, when deployed as access, leaf top-of-rack (ToR), or end-of-row (EoR) in a data center, and potentially in the aggregation layer in campus or edge data center designs.
