The new strategy between the two companies is aimed at accelerating the adoption of private cloud solutions by enterprises across Asia Pacific (APAC).
The partnership between Juniper Networks and VMware represents a shared commitment to delivering simplified, flexible solutions that enable customers to more easily realize the benefits of network virtualization and SDN as their business needs evolve.
Juniper Networks and VMware will closely align their private cloud products and sales teams to support customers in the APAC region, providing interoperable products to deliver smart forwarding across physical and virtual infrastructures and Layer 2 Gateway Services for VMware NSX certified on the Juniper Networks' MX Series 3D Universal Edge Routers.

While it is no secret that the entire IT landscape is undergoing a dramatic shift toward mobile applications delivered from the cloud, nobody should underestimate the challenge this represents to data center operations. Together with Juniper Networks, we have a strong focus on addressing data center complexity by leveraging the power of network virtualization to radically simplify IT, while delivering services at the speed of today's business.
Russell Skingsley, VicePresident, Systems Engineering & Center of Excellence, APAC, Juniper Networks
Enterprises are looking to Software-Defined Data Centre (SDDC) technology and network virtualization as a means of easily deploying, managing and orchestrating private cloud networks. At Juniper, we believe customers will realize the greatest benefits when physical and virtual networks leverage each other's strengths. Through our partnership with VMware in APAC we are committed to helping our customers maximize the benefit of both their virtual and physical data center resources, ensuring the success of their SDDC implementations.
