BREAKTHROUGH ECONOMICS AND SIMPLICITY

PRESENTED BY

The cloud transforms enterprise traffic flows and the way applications and services are delivered . This presents a variety of performance , security , and availability challenges for enterprise network architects .

AI-driven SD-WAN is an advanced , service-centric solution that takes software-defined routing to a new level . Ideal for today ’ s digital businesses , it delivers a flexible , application-aware network fabric that meets stringent enterprise performance , security , and availability requirements .

• Delivers proactive AI-driven operations and support including zero-touch provisioning ( ZTP )

• Optimized for user experience : tunnel free , application aware and service centric

• Uses fine-grained QoS controls to efficiently shape and prioritize traffic and enforce different SLAs for different data flows

• Next-gen firewall , IDS / IPS , URL filtering , and zero-trust security

• Scales to 10,000 + nodes with continuous connectivity

• Supports a variety of session optimization and intelligent routing features , including subsecond failovers

• Open and programmable for flexibility , simplicity , and breakthrough economics ( lowers CapEx and OpEx )

AI-DRIVEN SD-WAN ACCELERATES DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION WITH AN AGILE , EFFICIENT , AND RESILIENT NETWORK

Service-Centric Networking Solution Delivers Breakthrough Economics and Simplicity

Businesses are adopting cloud-based applications and services to avoid infrastructure cost and complexity , increase IT agility , and accelerate digital transformation . According to a 2021 global industry survey , 92 percent of enterprises have a multi-cloud strategy and 80 percent have a hybrid cloud strategy . ¹

The cloud fundamentally reshapes enterprise traffic flows , introducing a variety of performance , security , and service quality challenges for network planners . Legacy WANs , designed to support traditional enterprise applications and services , aren ’ t well suited for the cloud-centric world of IT . A modern enterprise requires a modern network — one that is adaptable , applicationaware , and designed from the ground up to handle today ’ s diverse workloads and dynamic data flows .

Juniper ^® AI-driven SD-WAN is a state-of-the art , service-centric networking solution that eliminates the inherent inefficiencies and cost constraints of traditional WAN products and legacy SD-WAN solutions . The fully software-based solution provides agile , secure , and reliable WAN connectivity with breakthrough economics and simplicity .

Focusing on the user experience , AI-driven SD-WAN is an integral part of Juniper ’ s AI-driven enterprise , providing client-to-cloud automation with insights and selfdriving actions across a full stack of wired , wireless , WAN , and data center ( Figure 1 ).

Security is assured at every point and the network is inherently zero trust . By integrating AI-driven SD-WAN into the Mist AI Cloud , Juniper unifies design , provisioning , and configuration tasks from client to cloud and across all network domains .
