Juniper Networks, a leader in secure, AI-driven networks, today announced that its wireless access, wired access, NAC, indoor location and SD-WAN solutions, all driven by Mist AI™, will have a local cloud instance in the UAE. Juniper customers and partners in the region will benefit from a cloud-native architecture, which includes microservices agility, resiliency and elastic scale, as well as local hosting and storage.
In the Middle East, validating where data is stored is becoming increasingly important due to data privacy and cybersecurity concerns. Launching the Juniper UAE Cloud instance helps to align with security standards, enabling Juniper to deliver more secure, resilient and automated AI-driven cloud services in support of digital transformation initiatives. At the same time, their data is stored on a locally hosted cloud.
The Juniper Mist solutions deliver unsurpassed automation, insight and assurance for simplified operator experiences and exceptional user experiences. The Juniper campus and branch portfolio is managed via a common Mist cloud and AI engine for assured client-to-cloud experiences across the wired, wireless and WAN domains. Proactive actions and self-driving network operations avoid problems before they arise, eliminating as many as 90 percent of inbound trouble tickets.
