Albuquerque, NM – Oso Grande, a leading data center provider in Albuquerque, New Mexico, is excited to announce a significant upgrade to its network infrastructure. By transitioning from a flat Layer 2 topology to an enterprise topology with Layer 3 routing all the way to the edge, after upgrading its core network to 40G last year, Oso Grande is providing its customers with enhanced performance, reliability, and scalability — at speeds up to 10gbps.
Why is this upgrade beneficial to customers?
Improved Performance: A Layer 3 topology allows for more efficient routing of traffic, increasing reliability, reducing latency and improving overall performance. This is particularly important for applications that are sensitive to network delays, such as large volume data transfers, real-time communications and high-performance computing.
Enhanced Reliability: By segmenting the network into smaller, more manageable domains, Oso Grande can isolate issues and minimize disruptions to service. Similarly, these smaller administrative domains are now able to seamlessly provide each other redundancy. Additionally, last year’s upgrade to 10G/40G in the core network provides ample bandwidth to handle even the most demanding workloads.
Increased Scalability: The new enterprise topology is designed to accommodate future growth and expansion. As Oso Grande’s customer base and network traffic increase, the network can be easily scaled to meet demand. Oso Grande can now deliver 10gbps Internet service to customers incredibly quickly.
Enhanced Security: A Layer 3 topology provides additional security benefits, as it can be used to implement network segmentation and access controls. This helps to protect sensitive data and prevent unauthorized access, and prevents common Layer 2 network attacks.
Oso Grande’s investment in this network upgrade demonstrates its commitment to providing its customers with the highest quality data center solutions. By offering a more robust and scalable network infrastructure, while following industry leading best current practices, Oso Grande is positioning itself as a leading provider of colocation, data center, and cloud services in New Mexico.
