Today Juniper issued a press release on one of our recent joint customer wins with IBM, Fiberlight! This announcement once again proves the strength of Juniper and IBM’s go-to-market strategy of working together to help customers innovate and expand their capabilities.

 

Juniper and IBM has provided Fiberlight with leading networking and security technology to create a next-generation dedicated IP platform. The solution enables FiberLight to bundle its core fiber network product with high-speed Internet connectivity on a single, consolidated network, allowing FiberLight to offer its customers secure and resilient network services that can scale to meet changing demand at highly competitive price points.

 

FiberLight selected IBM for its design and engineering expertise to implement the new network infrastructure together with Juniper’s MX Router Series. The MX Series was selected due to its widespread market acceptance of the platform for Ethernet and IP services as well as the reliability and scalability of the Juniper Networks Junos® operating system.
