Juniper and VMware Collaborate with IBM on New Private Cloud Reference Architecture

More and more server and storage vendors are starting to deliver turnkey solutions or reference architectures combined with server virtualization software of VMware and Hyper-V. Most are marketed as private cloud solutions which can be quickly deployed.

There is VCE with vBlocks, NetApp FlexPod , Dell vStart and now there is IBM which collaborates with VMware and Juniper in a new reference configuration which enables mid market clients to quickly deploy a departmental, entry cloud solution. The solution is build using IBM server, IBM iSCSI storage, Juniper switches and VMware vSphere. Continue reading “Juniper and VMware Collaborate with IBM on New Private Cloud Reference Architecture”

Juniper merges network core elements to cut carrier costs

Juniper Networks is developing a massive switch that could replace traditional IP (Internet Protocol) routers in the core of service-provider networks and combine optical and electronic technologies that today exist in separate systems with dedicated staffs.

The PTX Series Packet Transport Switch platform, of which the first products will ship in the first quarter of next year, will combine two technologies that carriers use to bypass routing at the center of their networks. Routing involves the processor-intensive work of examining every packet, and it often isn’t necessary for traffic that is just traversing the core of the network. Instead, carriers use MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) and optical switching, neither of which requires full routing intelligence, to move traffic through the core.

Juniper, Polycom forge alliance

Juniper Networks and Polycom have teamed on a joint telepresence and videoconferencing offering that’s designed to serve as a counterweight to Cisco Systems and its recent acquisition of Tandberg.

In a statement Monday, Juniper and Polycom said they will optimize their platforms so service providers can offer video and telepresence cheaply. The argument: it’s cheaper for enterprises to deploy telepresence as a service from their network providers instead of building out their own networks.
