The road to self driving networks

Getting to an autonomous network is a progressive journey. Each stage delivers greater value—easing IT burdens, accelerating resolutions, and enabling exceptional user experiences.

Stage 1: Data, the critical foundation

The foundation of a self-driving network is the right data. For over a decade, Juniper has collected rich telemetry to train the Marvis® AI engine, enabling advanced AIOps with proactive insights, actionable recommendations, and self-driving actions that streamline operations and elevate experiences.
