Juniper Session Smart SD-WAN Partner Validated

The Session Smart SD-WAN supports a variety of session optimization and intelligent routing features that enable high performance and quality for diverse applications and services. Through granular [quality of service (QoS)](https://www.juniper.net/us/en/products-services/what-is/qos/) controls, network administrators can efficiently shape and prioritize traffic to enforce different service-level agreements (SLAs) for different dataflows. Innovative, application-aware routing intelligently steers traffic based on administratively defined policies and real-time network conditions, to automatically select the right network path (MPLS, 4G, Internet) for the right application at the right time.

AI-Driven SD-WAN The Juniper AI-driven SD-WAN combines our Session Smart SD-WAN solution with insights and automation driven by Mist AI. It delivers the simplicity, reliability, and agility your IT teams need in the modern era of distributed networking.

Focus on user experiences, from client to cloud. Competitive SD-WAN solutions focus only on network and application conditions to address issues with network availability, quality, and capacity. They lack insight into the actual user experience. After all, an “up” WAN link doesn’t always imply a “good” user experience. We shift the focus on the user experience, through AI-driven insight, automation, and self-driving actions across the WLAN, LAN, and WAN.

The router provides continuous connectivity without the expensive hot-standby tunnels in alternative solutions. In a link failure or network outage, the Session Smart SD-WAN consistently redirects traffic over an alternative path without disrupting sessions or impairing application performance. In addition, you can use the server load-balancing capabilities to distribute workloads across data centers or availability zones, providing business continuity and disaster recovery for mission-critical services.
