Network Management Challenges for Service Providers and Enterprises

For service providers, the network is the money-maker. Service providers look to their

network to create innovative services that solve business problems and demonstrate the

added value they can bring to their customers. These services must always be available to

ensure end- subscriber satisfaction, and new services need to be offered frequently as

demands and technology change in order to obtain additional revenue streams.

For enterprises, the network is both a strategic and critical corporate asset, where costs

have to be controlled. Explosive demand for smart devices, social media applications, and

mobility-based services has placed unprecedented pressure on network operators who

must provide a compelling experience to increasingly demanding, tech savvy consumers.

The unrelenting expectations of highly secure and always-on connectivity and service,

coupled with the growing use of cloud environments, make the network increasingly

complex to manage and secure.

These networks can be extremely difficult to manage. Networks have been device centric,

and each new box brought a different interface and exponential complexity. This made

networks hard to manage, closed to innovation, and expensive to operate. With more users

and devices than ever before, managing, securing, and delivering new services across the

network has meant additional costs and complexities.

Juniper addresses these network challenges with Junos Space to help service providers and

enterprise customers maximize their network value and scale solutions, all while reducing

complexity. Junos Space is a critical component of Juniper’s SDN strategy as it provides a

centralized management plane for a single source of truth and a common management

platform for managing and creating applications to meet your specific needs.
