Financial Benefits of Juniper Networks' Wired and Wireless Access Driven by Mist AI in Managed Network Services

The changing dynamics in the enterprise as a result of the COVID pandemic has 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 changing 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 Wi-Fi and wired LAN services:

• Cloud management 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 problems arise

ACG Research developed a business case model designing managed network services for enterprises' Wi-Fi and wired LAN services. The model calculates revenue, capital expense (CapEx), and operation expense (OpEx) for two scenarios:

1. Wired and Wireless Access with Juniper Mist AI

2. Wired and Wireless Access without Juniper Mist AI
