Financial Benefits of Juniper Networks Mist AI

The changing dynamics in the enterprise as a result of the COVID pandemic, multicloud migrations, new application requirements, and security concerns have elevated the network to the status of essential infrastructure. High availability, performance, and security are essential features of a network that needs to adapt to constantly evolving requirements. These trends have amplified enterprises’ demands for managed network services from trusted partners.

Delivering services that meet or exceed users’ expectations means that networks need to be highly flexible, automated, and efficient. This drives two key requirements for enterprise managed WAN, WiFi, wired LAN services, and security services:

• Common cloud platform to simplify and streamline all network management functions

• Artificial intelligence for IT operations (AIOps) to perform event correlation, root-cause analysis, and automatic or semiautomatic problem resolution before issues arise

ACG Research developed a business case model for managed SD-WAN, WiFi, and wired LAN services. The model calculates revenue, capital expense (CapEx), and operation expense (OpEx) for two scenarios:

1. Managed network services with Juniper Networks’ wired, wireless, and SD-WAN driven by Mist AI

2. Managed network services without Juniper Networks’ wired, wireless, and SD-WAN driven by Mist AI
