Infrastructure VAD Arrow ECS has entered into a distribution agreement for France and Germany with Juniper Networks, the leader in AI-driven secure networks.
Under the terms of the agreement, Arrow will continue to distribute Juniper's product portfolio with the addition of these two key countries. Juniper and Arrow already have a distribution agreement in other European countries, and this extension allows Arrow to expand the vendor's presence to its European partner base.
In support of its mission to provide global solutions to the enterprise, Juniper is now integrating Mist AI technology based on artificial intelligence to improve network performance, capacity and security. This enables enterprises to reduce network complexity and solve data traffic problems based on user behaviour and experience.
"It is gratifying to see Juniper's transformation from a traditional network provider to a provider of innovative AI and cloud-based network solutions, enabling us to deliver a superior end-user experience", said Michel Théon, general manager of Arrow ECS in France. "With the addition of Juniper to our portfolio in France and Germany, our partners will benefit from significant opportunities in the enterprise market, addressing the needs of this market segment with a highly differentiated AI-based offering."
Juniper is recognised as a leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Wired and Wireless LAN Access Infrastructure 2020 (Nov. 4, 2020), and is also positioned at the highest level for its ability to execute. Juniper is also listed as a leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Data Center and Cloud Networking 2020 (June 30, 2020) for the third consecutive year.
"Juniper remains fully committed to solving the challenges that accompany our customers' digital transformation, including complex, multi-cloud security environments. We enable the channel to meet end-customer requirements with innovative technology that nevertheless simplifies the operating environment", said Bert Zeleken, director of partner sales at Juniper Networks.
