Juniper Networks Launches AI-Native Local Cloud Instance in India

Juniper Networks has announced the launch of a local cloud instance in India for its wireless access, wired access, NAC, indoor location services and SD-WAN solutions, all driven by Mist AI™. The introduction of the India-based cloud instance aligns with India's data protection laws to restrict the transfer of sensitive data, reinforcing Juniper's commitment to providing the highest levels of data security and privacy. With this local cloud instance, Juniper's customers and partners in the region will benefit from a cloud-native architecture that offers microservices agility, resilience, and elastic scalability, along with local hosting and storage. This ensures that their data is stored in the local cloud instance securely within India, addressing the country's heightened concerns about data privacy and cybersecurity. The Juniper Mist solutions deliver unsurpassed automation, insight and assurance for simplified operator experiences and exceptional user experiences. The entire Juniper campus and branch portfolio is managed via a unified Juniper Mist cloud and AI engine for assured client-to-cloud experiences across the wired, wireless, WAN and security domains. Proactive actions and Self-driving Network™ operations mitigate issues before they arise, eliminating over 90 percent of inbound network trouble tickets in some instances. Juniper Networks has experienced significant growth in the Indian market, driven by the increasing adoption of its AI-Native Networking solutions across key sectors, including government, public sector and financial services institutions (FSI). With this expansion, Juniper continues to enable global digital transformation efforts by providing secure, resilient, and automated AI-Native cloud services tailored to the needs of local businesses and government entities. "Our launch of a local cloud instance in India represents a significant milestone for Juniper Networks and our commitment to addressing the unique needs of this vibrant market. This reinforces our dedication to delivering AI-Native solutions that fuel growth and enable seamless user experiences across the India region, as we continue to support more customers and partners in achieving their business goals," Sajan PaulArea Vice President & Country Manager, India & SAARC, Juniper Networks
