Juniper Networks and Google Cloud have joined forces to expedite new enterprise campus and branch deployments and enhance user experiences.
Users can easily subscribe to Google’s Cloud WAN solution alongside Juniper Mist wired, wireless, NAC, firewalls and secure SD-WAN solutions with just a few clicks in the Google Cloud Marketplace. The solution is designed to simplify the process, ensuring a secure and reliable connection to critical applications and AI workloads.
Muninder Singh Sambi, VP/GM of networking at Google Cloud, said: “By combining the power of Google Cloud’s global infrastructure with Juniper’s expertise in AI for networking, we’re empowering enterprises to build more agile, secure and automated networks that can meet the demands of today’s dynamic business environment.”
AIOps
Google’s Cloud WAN, a new solution from Google Cloud, delivers a fully managed, reliable and secure enterprise backbone for branch transformation powered by Juniper’s Mist AI-Native Networking platform.
Mist targets leveraging AI-native operations (AIOps) for optimised campus and branch experiences, assuring that connections are reliable, measurable, and secure for every device, user, application, and asset.
Sujai Hajela, EVP, Campus and Branch at Juniper Networks, said: “Juniper’s AI-Native Networking Platform is a perfect complement to Google’s Cloud WAN solution, enabling enterprises to overcome campus and branch management complexity and optimise application performance through low latency connectivity, self-driving automation and proactive insights.”
Connections for campus and branch
The campus and branch services on Google’s Cloud WAN, driven by Mist, aim to provide a single, secure, high-performance connection point for all branch traffic.
Google Cloud Platform can host a variety of wired, wireless, NAC and WAN services, claiming to allow businesses to eliminate on-premises hardware.
The solution aims to enable rapid deployment of new branches and services while improving security through consistent policies and cloud-delivered threat protection by natively integrating Juniper and other strategic partners with Google Cloud.
