Service description

The Juniper® AI Accelerate Service is designed to support large enterprises and service providers that are deploying Juniper campus and branch solutions for enterprise applications. Juniper provides necessary assistance and expertise to help customers realize benefits immediately, improving their time-to-value. The service is available in two options:

  • Juniper AI Accelerate LAN for the Juniper wired and wireless LAN solution
  • Juniper AI Accelerate WAN for the Juniper SD-WAN solution

Both options are delivered remotely with assistance for design, deployment, and accelerated rollout activities.

Customers benefit from assistance for various activities at every stage of their Juniper solution adoption. Table 1 provides a list of service activities that are tailored to each customer’s requirements and goals.

 

Discovery workshop

All service engagements typically start with a discovery workshop that provides:

  • Review of business and technical requirements to provide a clear understanding of overall goals based on insights from customer teams and stakeholders, including any completed activities and existing design and deployment plans
  • Network transition plan, identifying ownership, responsibilities, and dependencies, as well as establishing priorities to guide the engagement

 

Design and deployment planning

Deployment planning provides the foundation for a successful rollout of Juniper campus and branch solutions. In this phase, Juniper leverages results from the discovery workshop to create optimal designs. For example, a predictive wireless design can be developed to provide optimal wireless coverage based on the customer’s connectivity needs. Juniper assists with creating configuration templates that align to the customer solution. Templates and additional CLI configurations for Juniper Wired Assurance are applied with expert guidance on identifying variables and tailoring them for each site. Site readiness testing verifies configurations and connectivity prior to service rollout to assure deployment success. The service also helps customers with the rollout of Juniper campus and branch devices, network implementation, and cutover planning.

 

Accelerated rollout

Accelerated rollout ensures consistent, efficient deployment across sites. As part of site implementation planning, Juniper develops detailed runbooks that document procedures applicable to deploying our solution in the customer’s network. The goal is continually improving and optimizing the process to roll out new sites more efficiently. Juniper experts also advise on best practices like consistent monitoring and health checks to ensure the customer’s continued successful outcomes with Juniper’s campus and branch solution.

Project management

Managing modern network implementations requires robust planning and adoption of industry best practices to ensure smooth deployment, maximize efficiency, and minimize risk. The service uses Juniper project manager methodology (JPMM) for aligning customer goals and services activities to maximize progress during the service term. JPMM combines standardized, scalable processes with tailored execution, drawing on experience across a wide range of successful projects globally.
