Juniper unveils Paragon automation for the WAN
Summary
In conjunction with its 2021 Investor Day last week, Juniper Networks unveiled its new Paragon automation platform. It can automate manual tasks and processes, perform constant testing and automatically remediate problems. Paragon is a modular portfolio of software applications that are designed to translate business intent into real-world performance across the lifecycle of a network and of services. And it can be deployed in redundant node clusters within a single data center or across multiple clouds in a high-availability scale-out architecture. “By automating our service assurance process with Juniper’s cloud-native Paragon active assurance solution, our engineering and operation organizations can guarantee that scheduled changes in our core and access networks do not impact customer experience, which allows us to mitigate expensive repairs,” said Kenji Ogura, director of IP core engineering at Consolidated Communications, in a statement.
