Edgecore Networks, a leading provider of open networking solutions, together with its partner Deca Consulting, today announced the successful transformation of IPNexia’s datacenter infrastructure with a modern, automated SONiC-based spine-leaf architecture. This upgrade equips IPNexia with a high-performance, scalable, and future-ready infrastructure to serve its over 3,000 enterprise customers across Belgium.
IPNexia, a pioneering “Integroperator” in Belgium, faced challenges with aging hardware, vendor lock-in, and limited scalability. Through the collaborative efforts of Deca Consulting and Edgecore Networks, IPNexia replaced its backbone network with a high-performance, open, and fully automated infrastructure.
Key Highlights of the Transformation Include:
- Modern Spine-Leaf Architecture: Delivers predictable low-latency performance with a fully non-blocking 100G fabric, eliminates traditional aggregation bottlenecks, and enables seamless horizontal scaling.
- Open Networking Freedom: Provides enterprise-grade stability with Edgecore Enterprise Switches running Broadcom’s Enterprise SONiC, eliminating vendor lock-in and giving IPNexia flexibility to adapt as business demands evolve.
- Automation-First Operations: Dramatically reduces deployment times through zero-touch provisioning (ZTP) and NetBox-driven Ansible workflows, while enabling Infrastructure-as-Code and version-controlled network configuration.
- Future-Proof, Scalable Infrastructure: Supports multi-tenant services, high-bandwidth applications, and future expansion without service disruption.
- Strategic Partnership: Deca Consulting facilitated end-to-end engagement with IPNexia, providing design expertise, deployment support, and knowledge transfer to strengthen long-term growth.
The collaboration between IPNexia, Deca Consulting, and Edgecore Networks demonstrates how open networking solutions can empower organizations to modernize infrastructure, eliminate vendor lock-in, and achieve scalable, automated operations—setting a benchmark for next-generation datacenter networks.
