An Intellyx Brain Candy Update
I’ve been a fan of the intent-based networking story from Apstra since I covered the company in September 2017 and again in September 2018.
In fact, the notion of ‘intent-based’ extends well past networking, as intent-based computing is an essential aspect of cloud-native computing.
It came as no surprise, therefore, that Apstra’s performance has exceeded expectations since Juniper Networks acquired the company in January 2021.
Juniper’s customers love the product – as do the customers of Juniper’s major data center networking competitors.
The Apstra acquisition is thus helping Juniper acquire market share in the mature networking hardware market – a remarkable achievement for an infrastructure software product.
