The merger of HPE and Juniper creates a new generation of smart, secure and flexible networks. Whether small businesses, large campuses or complex cloud environments: Together, the two brands offer innovative solutions to improve AI, automation and security.
Find out in this blog post how this merger will future-proof your network and what benefits it will bring to your company.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has acquired Juniper Networks for around 14 billion US dollars with a clear objective: The development of an AI-native network with the highest security standards. This acquisition is intended to help meet the growing demand for hybrid cloud infrastructures.
The reason for this merger is companies that want to make their networks more intelligent, secure and flexible at the same time. This is where HPE and Juniper come in: Both companies complement each other ideally in terms of technology - Juniper provides strong networks, HPE provides cloud and infrastructure.
HPE and Juniper thus offer secure, AI-supported networks for companies of all sizes, whether for hospitals, campuses or schools.
The merger creates a new platform that does more than just connect. It creates transparency in complex IT environments and enables cloud-native operating models. The focus is on automation, efficiency and a sophisticated user experience.
High performance + security + intelligent control = network foundation
This not only gives companies access to an expanded product portfolio, but above all creates new flexibility when planning their infrastructure. This includes high-performance network solutions, modern data centre architectures and end-to-end connectivity - smarter, more integrated and future-proof.
Benefits of the HPE and Juniper merger:
The HPE Aruba CX switches combine modern, high-performance networks with simple management and intelligent automation. The CX 10000 Series is a popular choice for traditional switching with advanced security features such as firewall or segmentation. It reduces latency, relieves central systems and is ideal for data centres and companies seeking maximum performance and security.
The Juniper EX switches are powerful and secure network devices, ideal for companies, data centres and campus environments. They combine high reliability, flexible scalability and modern management functions. The virtual chassis technology allows up to ten devices to be connected to form a single unit, making management easier and operations more flexible.
The HPE Aruba access points use smart AI technologies to automatically monitor and improve networks. They recognise faults independently and ensure stable performance by adapting WLAN connections accordingly. As a result, they not only offer better, automated protection, but also efficient management.
Juniper firewalls reliably protect networks, data centres and cloud applications. The SRX series utilises smart AI technology to detect threats at an early stage and ensure secure connections via VPNs. The SSG series is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized companies. It provides cost-effective protection with important functions such as VPN or stateful inspection.
The HPE Aruba Networking SSE is a cloud-based security solution that ensures secure and flexible access to applications and data - no matter where users or devices are located. It combines important protection functions such as zero-trust access, web security and cloud application monitoring in one unit.
HPE Aruba Central is a platform with an intuitive user interface and offers advanced AI, improved security and high connectivity for your network. The innovative Agentic Mesh technology, which is accessible through GreenLake Copilot network access, enables rapid fault analysis and automated problem resolution. Intelligent AI agents constantly monitor the network, recognise risks at an early stage and relieve IT teams by taking over tasks autonomously.
Juniper Mist AI is a cloud-based platform that redefines network management. It simplifies the control and optimisation of networks through the use of AI. WLAN, switches and site services are managed and monitored centrally. Juniper Mist AI provides real-time insights, automatically recognises problems and enables faster solutions for a high-performance network.
The merger of HPE and Juniper creates an ideal basis for companies that want to rely on modern AI-supported network solutions. If you also want to future-proof your network and reduce operating costs at the same time, you are ideally positioned with the solutions from HPE and Juniper.
