Japan-based leading Internet services company, CyberAgent has chosen Juniper Networks SDN-ready networking gears - MX480 3D Universal Edge Routers, QFX5100 Director and EX3300 Ethernet Switches - to drive expansion of its infrastructure into a cloud-enabled, next-generation network.
Operating across its three main business areas of media, internet advertising and gaming, including its flagship blogging and social networking portal Ameba, the new routers, switches and Virtual Chassis technology complement Juniper products previously deployed by CyberAgent including the MX240 3D Universal Edge Routers and SRX5800 Services Gateways, the company said.
According to Juniper Networks, CyberAgent required a scalable expansion of its network infrastructure to increase density and performance, all while reducing operational workload. Another urgent priority was the implementation of an advanced management system that could minimize possible service disruptions potentially resulting from multiple network expansions.
