The New World -- Network Availability, Open Systems and Lower Total Cost of Ownership

Based on an Internet model, Cisco AVVID relies on a distributed architecture to ensure
system availability and scalability. With the trend continuing toward distributed
computing, customers are quickly realizing the benefit of having no single point of failure
and are able to build as little or as much availability as they need into an integrated
solution.

''As the Internet continues to change global business models, Texas Instruments
made the strategic decision to be at the forefront IP telephony deployment because
of the reduced operational costs and increased productivity that a converged
network can deliver,'' said Pallab Chatterjee, CIO of Texas Instruments. ''What
attracted us to Cisco AVVID was its distributed architecture and the scalability of
the design which has enabled us to build an open and highly available integrated
network today.''


Another key element of Cisco AVVID is its open and interoperable nature. This means that
customers can choose the best-in-class solution in a number of different areas where
previously, they were locked into proprietary applications from a single vendor. As a result,
innovation is encouraged and overall networking costs will come down based on market
demands and competition.
