Edgecore Networks, in partnership with Deca Consulting, has successfully transformed IPNexia’s datacenter infrastructure in Belgium by implementing a modern, automated SONiC-based spine-leaf architecture. This upgrade replaces legacy systems with an open, high-performance network that eliminates vendor lock-in and supports scalable operations for IPNexia’s more than 3,000 enterprise customers.
IPNexia, a leading “Integroperator” in Belgium, previously struggled with aging hardware, vendor dependency, and scalability constraints. The collaboration with Deca Consulting and Edgecore Networks delivered a future-ready solution that modernizes the entire datacenter network while prioritizing openness, automation, and performance.
The deployed spine-leaf topology creates a predictable, low-latency environment with a non-blocking 100G fabric. This design eliminates legacy aggregation layers, enabling consistent performance across the network and effortless horizontal scaling as demand grows.
Edgecore’s enterprise switches running Broadcom’s Enterprise SONiC provide a stable, open platform that frees IPNexia from proprietary constraints. This approach ensures long-term flexibility, allowing the organization to adapt hardware and software choices independently to meet changing requirements.
Zero-touch provisioning combined with NetBox-integrated Ansible automation streamlines network deployment and management. Infrastructure-as-Code practices and version-controlled configurations reduce manual effort, minimize errors, and accelerate service delivery for multi-tenant and high-bandwidth environments.
The project positions IPNexia with a scalable, high-performance infrastructure capable of supporting enterprise customers across Belgium without disruption during future expansions. Deca Consulting played a pivotal role by offering expert design, hands-on deployment support, and comprehensive knowledge transfer to ensure sustained success.
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.
