Juniper Networks, Inc, has introduced a series of new products that advance the company's comprehensive data center solution and meet the changing requirements for enterprise data centers. Combining new best-in-class DXT and WXCT application acceleration platforms with previously-announced enterprise IP routing and security solutions, the Juniper solution increases application performance, ensures high availability and delivers advanced visibility and intelligence for enterprise data centers. The Juniper data center solution addresses key IT initiatives, including data center consolidation, web-enablement of applications, data replication and backup, implementation of high-availability architectures, security, and regulatory compliance.
The new products announced - the DX 3280 and DX 3680 data center acceleration platforms, and the WXC 590 WAN application acceleration platform - advance performance, availability and management of the Juniper Networks data center solution. The DX 3280 and DX 3680 platforms run the new DX operating system (DXOS) v5.2 software. The WXC 590 platform runs the new WX operating system (WXOS) v5.4 software and is managed by the latest release of the WX Central Management SystemTM (WX CMS) software, version 5.4.
"Scalability, high availability and visibility are the top priorities for the new data center. No single point solution can support these needs across a vast and distributed IT infrastructure," said Zeus Kerravala, vice president at Yankee Group, a leading industry analyst firm. "Juniper Networks is providing a clear vision for how it will support customers' next-generation data center initiatives and a best-in-class product portfolio that touches on all of these critical functions."
