Has anyone got experience with Lenovo RackSwitches? Lenovo bought the RackSwitches from IBM, along with the x86 servers, back then I didn't give them much thought because they were just some random third party OS on Trident silicon.
Apparently they didn't die off, Lenovo has even listed new 100G products (NE10032) with the "ThinkSystem" brand on their website, they're listed in the Gartner Magic Quadrant (unremarkable position on the quadrant, but at least they're "important enough" for Gartner to include them?), yet I don't know anyone who actually uses them.
Are they actually bought and used in any data centers? Pricing-wise they seem to be quite a bit cheaper than the "usual suspects" (Cisco, Arista, HPE, Juniper), so if they were any good I'd assume this would propagate through word-of-mouth.
Has anybody not only heard of them, but can provide firsthand experience?
