Automation

We are excited to share that Juniper is expanding its AI Data Center solutions to quickly deploy high-performing AI training and inference networks that are flexible to design and easier to manage with limited IT resources. With unique intent-based operations via Apstra, the new Marvis Virtual Network Assistant (VNA) for data centers, and validated AI designs, Juniper takes much of the complexity out of AI Data Center networking design, deployment, and operations. The solution also delivers unsurpassed flexibility to customers, avoiding vendor lock-in with silicon diversity, multivendor switch management, and a commitment to open, standards-based Ethernet fabrics.

Here's what we're launching today. 

·       Juniper Apstra has been expanded to provide faster and more efficient processing of AI/ML traffic over Ethernet, including congestion management, load balancing, and flow control.

·       A new QFX switch (QFX5240) provides 2X the capacity of the previous generation, leveraging the most advanced Broadcom Tomahawk 5 silicon for 800GE.

·       New Express 5 silicon-based PTX10002 router and line cards with the promise of industry-leading performance and energy-efficient sustainability to enable the necessary massive scale with high-density 800GE capacity.

·       Marvis Virtual Network Assistant (VNA) for Data Center: The first and only AI-Native VNA for the data center, delivering the best insight throughout the entire data center lifecycle across any vendor's hardware. Additionally, the Marvis conversational interface (CI) allows IT teams to pose direct queries and get simple, seamless insight into the data center product documentation and knowledgebase using GenAI. Data center actions are shown in a single UI alongside similar Marvis actions for wired access, wireless access, and secure SD-WAN. In addition, the same Marvis CI is used for generative knowledge base queries across all Juniper products. Juniper customers now have a single VNA for end-to-end visibility and assurance across all enterprise domains.
