Juniper Networks continues to fill out its core AI AI-Native Networking Platform, this time with a focus on its Apstra data center software. New to the platform is Juniper Apstra Cloud Services, a suite of cloud-based, AI-enabled applications for the data center, released along with the new 5.0 version of the Apstra software.

At its core, the multi-vendor-capable Apstra software works by keeping a real-time repository of configuration, telemetry and validation information to ensure a data center network is doing what the organization wants it to do. Companies can use Apstra’s automation capabilities to deliver consistent network and security policies for workloads across physical and virtual infrastructures. In addition, Apstra performs regular network checks to safeguard configurations.
