The New Network Runs VMware + Junos
Juniper Networks and VMware have teamed up to provide enterprise solutions that help reduce data center and network virtualization costs. Juniper's network and security virtualization capabilities complement VMware's server, desktop, storage, and infrastructure virtualization capabilities.
Increased Reliability and Flexibility for Improved Business Continuity
- VMware Network Infrastructure 3 provides the highest level of data protection, including nondisruptive backup and restore processes and reduced downtime.
- Juniper Networks EX4200 provides increased throughput and decreased latency, enabling VMware VMotion to operate across distances of several kilometers.
Lower Data Center TCO and Reduced Complexity
- VMware ESX for server consolidation can reduce hardware and operating costs by up to 50%, energy costs by 80%, and server provisioning by up to 70%.
- Juniper Networks Data Center Infrastructure Solutions reduce enterprise network complexity and provide savings up to 52% in capital expenditures, up to 44% in power and cooling, and 55% in rack space in the data center infrastructure.
- Junos OS automates enterprise network operations, minimizes complexity and risk, and reduces operating costs by up to 25%.
Using EX Series and MX Series with VMware ESX
Our white papers explain server and network virtualization design considerations when using EX Series switches and MX Series Ethernet Services Routers.
