High performance businesses are figuring out that
they don't need to make compromises between IT and
user requirements. They can accomplish both today.
In fact, discriminating organizations are going a step
further by recognizing the added long term benefit
of investing in an application acceleration solution
that is part of a broader high performance network-driven
strategy. This allows them to take advantage of continuous
innovation and richer levels of integration which will
optimize and extend their network investment.
Juniper Networks WX is the best-in-class application
acceleration platform. This is based on broad application
support including Web-based, client-server, custom
software, voice and video applications supporting TCP,
UDP, MAPI, CIFS, and HTTP/S protocol. It delivers the
performance and scale to support large application
deployments in geographically distributed environments,
including unmatched acceleration of TCP Flow volume
which maps more realistically with the number of individual
network transactions.
Its comprehensive management system centrally manages,
monitors, and troubleshoots application and network
performance, and it complements Juniper's high performance
network infrastructure, including routing, switching
and security.
The WX platforms accelerate applications between corporate
locations, enabling faster response times, reducing
WAN bandwidth consumed, and prioritizing mission-critical
traffic. These WX platforms scale to meet a range of
WAN bandwidth levels, interoperate with the WXC platforms,
and provide a comprehensive feature set to optimize
WAN performance.
Benefits
The WX product family coupled with WX CMS management
software enables high-performance businesses to create
a competitive advantage by providing:
- Uninterrupted productivity -
Accelerates mission-critical applications and rich
content by reducing the volume of traffic.
- Confident interactions and transactions -
Accelerates delivery of web applications by speeding
application-specific protocols (TCP, UDP, HTTP/S,
MAPI, CIFS).
- Real time collaboration and communications -
Accelerates real-time business-critical applications,
such as VoIP, by prioritizing and allocating bandwidth.
- Quick, secure access to the WAN -
Accelerates features for secure applications, such
as HTTPS, encrypted Remote Desktop Connections
or CIFS with SMB signing.
- Proactive network and application traffic
management - Provides the network and
application visibility to deliver applications
exactly as intended, on a consistent basis.
- Improved operational and cost efficiencies -
productivity gains the WX and WXC platforms provide
in the form of application acceleration contribute
to improving the bottom line.
Demos
WX Framework Application Control Technologies
In wide-area networks that connect branch offices
to the data center, all data traffic competes for
the same limited bandwidth. That's not always good
for business, especially if slow, low-priority
traffic delays time-sensitive, mission-critical
transactions.
This three-minute demo explores how the WX Framework's
Application Control techniques — specifically
Quality of Service (QoS) and Policy-based Multipath
capabilities — help businesses properly allocate
WAN resources to maintain service levels and ensure
that sufficient resources are always available
for high-priority business applications. See

WX Framework Acceleration Technologies
The WX Framework defines the attributes required
of a true WAN acceleration and optimization solution,
based on four specific categories: compression
and caching; acceleration; application control;
and visibility.
This demo describes the acceleration capabilities
enabled by the WX Framework and integrated into
the Juniper WX and WXC application acceleration
platforms. The demo covers both Packet Flow Acceleration,
which improves the performance of TCP-based applications
throughout the extended enterprise; and Application
Flow Acceleration, which speeds response times
for specific applications — namely Microsoft
Exchange, Windows files services, and web-based
applications — whose performance is constrained
by the performance limitations and latency imposed
by their underlying Layer 7 protocols. See

WX CMS Software Demo
The Juniper WAN application acceleration (WX/WXC)
platforms are equipped with powerful visibility
and reporting tools that provide insight into WAN
and application performance. WebView allows per-device
management, while the WX Central Management System
(CMS) software provides easy-to-use and extensive
central configuration, monitoring, and management
capabilities for up to 2,000 geographically dispersed
WX and WXC platforms.
This demo highlights the main features and functionalities
of the WX CMS software, including the “My
WAN” portal, monitoring and reporting, device
and configuration management, auto-deployment and
license management, and role-based administration. See

Juniper Networks Application Acceleration Solutions
To keep pace in today's competitive business climate,
companies must streamline their business operations
to increase productivity and reduce costs. Server
centralization and data center consolidation initiatives
help, but trends like globalization and expansion
conflict with these initiatives and threaten to
undermine their benefits.
This four-minute demo describes how the Juniper
Networks application acceleration solutions embrace
these trends and help businesses achieve their
strategic IT objectives while reducing costs, improving
application performance, and maximizing existing
network investments. See

Juniper Networks Branch Office Demo
Branch offices are a critical component of today's
enterprises. By some accounts, between 80% and
90% of employees are located in branch or regional
offices. The result of all the latest trends is
the need for a new branch office solution - one
that meets branch office security, connectivity,
and performance challenges and requirements. Take
a look at this demo to the see the latest branch
office trends and challenges, what the requirements
are for building an ideal branch office solution
as well as the Juniper Networks security, networking,
and application acceleration branch office solutions
that will meet your needs. See
