Juniper Networks and VMware are long-standing mutual technology alliance partners. Juniper has delivered a number of VMware integrations and advantages across our portfolio with Juniper Networks® MetaFabric™ Architecture. This positions Juniper as the network and security vendor of choice for customers using VMware technologies, from small solutions based on vSphere, to large comprehensive SDDCs with vRealize Operations (vROps) and NSX, to hybrid clouds with vCloud Air. For customers, the benefits of Juniper and VMware integration are:

  • Operational cost savings and efficiencies from joint operations and cross-VMware-Juniper technology visibility, telemetry, and automation in management tooling.
  • Seamless high-performance virtual networking from routers and switches that plugs into the overlays in SDDCs deploying SDN with NSX.
  • Simplified security with next-generation firewall in physical or virtual form that scales from small branch deployments, to the largest data center, or to the vCloud Air data centers.

Session Topic: Smart software is indispensable, smart networking hardware is fundamental: an invincible combination for digital success
In this session Juniper will focus on a virtualized, software-centric, data center-driven world in which the opportunities to create business advantage are endless. Yet, software is only as good as the network it runs on; the importance of network hardware must not be underestimated, overlooked or disregarded. Sophisticated software can only be truly optimized to flourish in an infrastructure when matched with high-speed, reliable and scalable networking hardware.
