Juniper SONiC Implementation

Juniper SONiC implementations enable high-performance, end-to-end deployments at scale, including spine and WAN core.

The disaggregated SONiC operating system offers cloud providers the ability to implement best-of-breed technology with a single OS for reduced operational costs and automated resiliency. It delivers greater flexibility to implement both vendor-supported and open-source applications to meet your cloud-scale business needs.

Juniper’s SONiC implementation combines the power of our hardware and routing technology with the flexibility, resiliency, and cost savings of SONiC’s open and disaggregated architecture. Juniper switching platforms with SONiC can plug seamlessly into a cloud provider’s unified SONiC network infrastructure.

You can also easily integrate Juniper’s deployment-hardened routing stack into SONiC, whether running on Juniper hardware or not, using container technology.
