JUNIPER SDN VISION AND STRATEGY ARUNA RAVICHANDRAN, VICE PRESIDENT, SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS DIVISION

NETWORKING BUSINESS CHALLENGES

Configuration

Overly complex, manual,

operationally expensive.

Features

Slow to respond to business requests

Software

Too hard to deploy

Packaging

Inflexible, difficult

to scale

Reliability

JUNIPER’S SDN STRATEGY: 6-4-1

Centralize Management Extract Services Centralize Controller Optimize the Hardware

4 – Juniper Steps

Full Use/Elastic Transferable Software Lifetime Assurance

Principles of SDN

SDN PRINCIPLES

Separate networking software in 4 layers – Forwarding, Control, Services and Mgmt

Optimize each network element

Centralize Mgmt, Services and Control layers

Simplifies network design and lowers opex

Adopt Cloud for elastic scale, usage-based pricing, and flexible deployment

Reduce time to services and correlates cost based on value

Common Platform for NW and Security applications and management integration

Enables new business solutions

Standard protocols for interoperability across vendors Provides choice and lowers cost

Broadly apply to network & security, ENT and SP networks, Mobile and Wireline,

TESTER QoE MONITOR

RADIO ACCESS NETWORK

NODES

• Time to deploy new service is too long

• New service - New Box, New OS

• Scaling a Service – New Box/New Line card

• More space, More energy, More cooling, More CAPEX

• More OPEX to design, integrate and operate

• Shorter HW lifecycles, more procure-design-deploy, with little or no benefit

CHALLANGES

• Add and remove additional capacity in

minutes with elastic scaling as VM – reduces time to deployment and service

• Reduced CAPEX – less space, energy, cooling, racks

• Reduced OPEX – centralized management and provisioning of the applications

• Flexible choices – tethered vs router-integrated line card

In Q2 JNCP will implement Provisional Scoring Innovative, proactive approach to protecting the value of

your certification

Provisional Scoring Process Candidate will receive a Provisional Pass or Fail on score

report Final Pass and certification awarded after security

analysis complete (Fails are not impacted) If no security violation no significant delay in final results Candidates with exam security violations do not pass, are

not granted certification

PROTECTING THE VALUE OF YOUR CERTIFICATION PROVISIONAL SCORING


PROTECTING THE VALUE OF YOUR CERTIFICATION IMPACT OF PROVISIONAL SCORING

Protects the value and integrity of the certification you have significant investment in

No significant change to elapse time in certification awarded for candidates without security violation

Ensures candidates with security violations do not receive certification

Look for more on timing for Provisional Scoring in Q2 announcements
