Lightstorm Architecture

95% of the world's data traffic starts and ends as Ethernet, but carrier networks today predominantly use legacy technology to transport data traffic that is encapsulated in connection-oriented protocols. Carrier-grade Ethernet is needed to leverage the cost and simplicity of Ethernet but solve the network scalability, QoS, monitoring, protection and interworking challenges.

The Lightstorm Architecture is focused on products that are purpose-built for the carrier market and provides a scalable hardware and software roadmap over several generations.

The Lightstorm Architecture was developed to enable the most demanding networks that require guaranteed service delivery, unprecedented scalability and high reliability. Lightstorm is committed to delivering these technologies for network equipment providers and delivering feature-rich functionality with future-proof flexibility.

By combining our unique knowledge of these emerging trends with patent-pending intellectual property and utilizing hundreds of man-years of experience in complex chip design, Lightstorm Networks has developed an architecture so network equipment vendors can deliver powerful carrier Ethernet products without the need for complex NPU programming.
