NoviFlow Case Study on Ixia Testing Solutions

This case study details the collaboration between NoviFlow Inc. and Ixia to validate the performance of NoviFlow's high-performance OpenFlow-based switches. NoviFlow, based in Montréal, develops solutions aimed at enhancing control and flexibility for network carriers and data center operators. To ensure their NoviSwitch could deliver the promised performance of up to 240 gigabits per second, the company required a robust testing platform.
