Our take

Arista is a supplier of cloud networking solutions, addressing the needs of internet companies, cloud service providers, and enterprises. While the business is not tied to a crowd of large customers, companies are nonetheless attracted to its CloudVision Software - which has the potential to save them a significant amount of money.

The company's growth so far has led to it being seen as a rising star in the computer networking industry. It competes directly with digital giant Cisco, but despite this boasts impressive revenue growth. In fact, Arista has been vocal with its confidence that it can continue to grow at a rapid pace, as it further develops its offering for the networking market.
