Juniper Paragon
Deliver speed, agility, and best-in-class service experiences.
Network automation is fundamental to delivering consistent, exceptional experiences. With manual or semi-automated network management, device onboarding and service activation can take days or weeks. Service deliveries fail. Network failure risk is high. Outages are costly. Repairs are lengthy. And constant change in traffic patterns makes it impossible to keep up with the configuration changes required to guarantee service levels in real time.
The Juniper Paragon portfolio addresses all these challenges so you can achieve your desired business outcomes, use case by use case. Use it to accelerate innovation, increase operational efficiency, and, most importantly, empower engineering and operations teams to deliver amazing service experiences.
Most Innovative Routing and Switching Solution
Juniper Networks Cloud Metro earns the "Editor's Choice" Leading Lights Awards 2022, enabling service providers to build a sustainable future.
How Juniper can help
Closed-loop automation assures service experiences throughout the service lifecycle, from Day 0 to Day 2+. Paragon speeds up scenario planning, bulletproofs your network design, and accelerates device onboarding while keeping operations ahead of issues and guaranteeing that services are delivered right the first time and every time.
Ready for service in minutes
AI-enabled device onboarding validates hardware and software authenticity, images the latest software, and secures zero-touch configuration and provisioning. It checks device health and network performance and updates inventory. All so your network devices are ready for service in minutes.
Deliver service intent
By using the efficiency of closed-loop, intent-based automation across your entire network and services lifecycles, you can guarantee service quality and delight your customers. You can easily customize service designs with services-as-code capabilities that enable structured service orchestration and ensure that services are delivered right every time.
Actively verify service quality
Assure your network’s ability to support service quality before deployment, then continually and automatically validate service performance against service-level objectives. Locate, troubleshoot, and fix service issues before your customers are impacted. Non-intrusive, active test agents provide service-quality metrics, from users to cloud, by running synthetic transactions across the data plane.
Gain network insights
Measure service quality. Normalize data across network domains and vendors using streaming telemetry. Analyze the data using a library of algorithms, including machine learning, and obtain actionable insights on network and service performance. Paragon pinpoints anomalies that would impact contracted service levels and drives closed-loop workflows for remedial action.
Guarantee service levels
Automate service path placement to meet or exceed service-level objectives, optimize capacity utilization, and avoid network congestion. A topological view lets you make offline changes and run scenario planning without impacting the live network. Automate traffic engineering beyond what standard routing protocols can provide to deliver a best-in-class service experience.
Streamline operations
With Juniper Paragon you can navigate the skilled labor shortage by dramatically boosting productivity and increasing operational efficiency. Reduce the time it takes to perform common operating tasks, minimize manual process-related errors, and do more with the resources you already have.
Simplify deployment
Paragon is cloud-ready and offers flexible deployment options. Some use cases, such as AI-enabled device onboarding, network observability, and network trust, are available in a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model. Standard APIs enable multivendor interoperability and customization.
