New York University Customer Case Study: 3D Resilience
Overview Founded in 1831, NYU is the largest private nonprofit university in the United States and occupies six major centers in Manhattan. An innovative institution such as NYU needs the latest technologies to support its pursuits. NYU owns the largest private fiber infrastructure in New York City. It was one of the first members of the ARPANET, the precursor to today's Internet. By 2001, NYU needed to increase its core network capacity to accommodate the growing number of network nodes, the greater bandwidth requirements of its applications and file transfers, and the emergence of integrated data, voice, and video networking. Network resilience is a primary concern because NYU is located in a busy metropolitan area, where road construction and other activities frequently lead to fiber cuts and other mishaps. Cisco intelligent network services, supported in a wide range of Cisco routers and switches, also offer innovation that meets NYU's need for resilience, load balancing, and growth over time.
