Leading Hong Kong It Infrastructure Provider Scales With Juniper Networks

Juniper Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: JNPR), the leader in high-performance networking, today announced that iAdvantage, a leading IT Infrastructure Provider (IIP) in Asia, has bolstered the performance and reliability of its network by deploying M-series multiservice routers. This upgrade increases network capacity between iAdvantage’s data centers and Hong Kong’s metropolitan-wide network hubs, allowing the company to host more customers while enabling faster network and application performance. The Juniper solution will also enable iAdvantage to quickly and efficiently introduce new revenue-generating services-such as its new “discrete bandwidth” service-over a single network.

iAdvantage provides mission-critical network application, database and bandwidth services to some of Asia Pacific’s most successful enterprises, including major financial institutions. The company has used Juniper Networks M-series routers since 2005 and recently expanded its network with additional platforms to address growing customer demand and fuel future growth.

“As a leading provider of IT services throughout Asia, our network is absolutely critical to our success,” said Ben Li, VP of Technology, iAdvantage. “The performance of Juniper Networks’ M-series has been a contributor to our growth, and as we continue to expand our data center network, adding capacity with additional M-series will enable us to quickly and efficiently expand our offerings while retaining excellent performance and reliability.”

Juniper Networks’ M-series routers uniquely combine best-in-class IP/MPLS capabilities with unmatched reliability and performance. The M-series allows providers to consolidate multiple networks onto a single IP/MPLS infrastructure, while enabling the generation of new revenue with leading-edge services. Using the highly scalable, secure, and reliable JUNOS software, the M-series enables providers to maximize revenue opportunities and minimize operational and capital costs.

“Many service providers such as iAdvantage are in a position where they need to expand network capacity, while also increasing performance and service velocity,” said Matt Kolon, Juniper Networks’ CTO for Asia Pacific. “And increasingly we are seeing these service providers are deploying Juniper Networks to help them grow their business through high-performance network solutions.”
