Sydney, Australia May 10, 2024 - Today, Juniper Networks (NYSE: JNPR), a leader in secure, AI-Native Networking, launched the all-new Juniper® Paragon Automation: one product with multiple use cases, all designed to cut time, effort, and cost in managing a high-performance WAN, by leveraging AI-enabled automation.
Juniper Paragon has three key building blocks - flexible model-based intent design; automated provisioning, verification, and active assurance; and integrated closed-loop automation. The new solution comes with pre-validated, standards-aligned service models[1], such as L3VPN and L2VPN.
This takes care of determining and allocating the network resources and configurations needed to fulfil a given business intent. That’s why service design—what might have taken months in the past—can now be done in a matter of hours, with full repeatability and little to zero human involvement.
The New Juniper® Paragon Automation goes beyond simply verifying configurations; it verifies customer experiences on Day 1 with active testing. Before the service goes live, it sends traffic through the network, mimicking the end user. Then it confirms that the stated business intent will be met. So, instead of finding problems, the end users find flawless performance, every time.
Combined with Autonomous Networking use cases such as congestion avoidance and latency-based routing, the network providers can also mitigate problems, gracefully draining traffic from offending nodes and re-routing services to maintain intent (and therefore user experience too). Plus, it will enable the network providers to safely investigate the root-cause and restore performance, knowing that no live services will be impacted in the meantime.
