Coloclue Builds Next-Generation Network Platform with Juniper Networks' NFV Solution

SUNNYVALE, CA --(Marketwired - May 17, 2017) - Juniper Networks ( NYSE : JNPR ), an industry leader in automated, scalable and secure networks, today announced that Coloclue , a non-profit, fully independent association of network specialists, will deploy Juniper Networks® vMX Virtual Router to build out its next-generation production network. Coloclue is operated entirely by volunteers, some working for global internet service providers (ISPs) and Web Hosting companies.

The vMX is a full-featured, carrier-grade virtual router, which will enable Coloclue to refresh its entire network environment. In support of this, Coloclue will deploy the vMX on the NFX250 Network Services Platform , and use the advanced automation features of Junos OS on their journey to create a Self-Driving Network® , which is expected to reduce testing time and costs and free up staff for higher-value activities. Coloclue believed the deployment of vMX on the NFX250 provided it with the most cost-effective solution to refresh its network environment, thereby supporting the non-profit's objectives.

News Highlights:

  • Deploying Juniper's vMX on the NFX250 Network Services Platform provides a high-performance, highly-automated and operationally-efficient network that will provide a high-performance production environment for Coloclue members. Members will also leverage the production network to test and troubleshoot new applications prior to roll-out.
  • The vMX provides a comprehensive suite of advanced routing functions and an open platform for network automation, allowing engineers to create a realistic network environment while gaining experience with a wide variety of automation tools that reduce the resources needed to operate the network, and allows them to focus on high-value testing and troubleshooting activities.
  • Juniper Networks' partner for the Coloclue deployment is Infradata B.V , a leading independent network integrator focused on designing, securing, implementing and managing next-generation networks for telecommunications operators, service providers and enterprises with mission critical networks.
