catalyst vs nexus

[carl.townshend]

Hi Guys

What are the main reasons these days for deploying nexus switches over a cat 9k for example? do you really get much more performance over the catalyst line?

do most people who by nexus these days by them and do native configs, or do you use dcnm or aci to manage them ?

Nexus More of DC based switches to serve the Server requirement.

Catalyst - More of Enterprise Lan based switch.

Modern world people do mix, but basics are need to deploy right device in right place get optimal results.
