Today, I’m thrilled to share a recognition that in our opinion speaks volumes—not just about where we are, but where we’re going.
For the fifth consecutive time, Juniper Networks has been named a Leader in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure.
But this is just the latest data point in what I believe is an undeniable trend: As AI and networking converge, Juniper’s contributions to AI-native innovation and execution continue to be pivotal.
Mist™, our AI-native networking platform driven by the Marvis® AI engine, is transforming how enterprises, service providers, and cloud providers operate, scale, and innovate. We have a long track record of delivering exceptional user and operator experiences and have no plans to slow down.
The AI-native era is now
At the heart of this transformation is the Marvis AI engine, the industry’s first and only AI-native AI engine with a virtual AI assistant. Marvis doesn’t just answer questions, it takes proactive actions, including full self-driving network operations. Marvis finds and fixes issues such as anomalous port behavior on switches, as well as software and hardware anomalies on access points before users take notice. It dynamically optimizes Radio Resource Management (RRM), automates policy updates, and continuously learns from every interaction to improve outcomes.
With Marvis Minis, our digital experience twin and the realization of agentic AI, we simulate user interactions across the wired, wireless, and WAN, proactively validating network performance and predicting issues before they impact users. These Minis feed our continuously learning AI engine to optimize the most important applications, like Zoom, Microsoft® Teams, and more.
The result? Predictive insights, end-to-end assurance, and a network that’s always one step ahead—without the need for extra configuration, sensors, or manual effort. It’s a force multiplier for IT, delivering proactive assurance, predictive insights, and self-healing automation at scale.
Real customers, real outcomes
This isn’t theory. It’s reality.
- The George Washington University: With nearly 7,000 access points and 50 access switches deployed in 90 days, Juniper’s automation and open APIs power one of the most agile higher education networks on the planet.
- ServiceNow: Leveraging Marvis® AI Assistant, ServiceNow streamlined global deployments across the full stack of Wi-Fi, switching, and SD-WAN and achieved a 90% reduction in wireless-related issues reported by employees.
- Orlando VA Medical Center: Serving more than 400,000 veterans, the Orlando VA Medical Center chose Juniper to deliver secure, reliable, and location-aware experiences for patients and staff across their 65-acre, 1.2 million square foot facility.
These are just a few of the thousands who trust Juniper to deliver the best user and operator experiences—securely, reliably, and at scale.

Built for the future
In 2025, we’re not slowing down—we’re accelerating.
- Marvis Minis now deliver full client-to-cloud digital experience twinning, extending beyond the LAN to proactively monitor application performance across WAN and cloud environments. This enables IT teams to pinpoint issues—whether at the site, across regions, or within an ISP—before they impact users. Marvis Minis act as a million digital twins working in unison to baseline, detect, and resolve issues autonomously—ushering in a foundational shift toward agentic AI and self-driving network operations.
- Building on our pioneering work with Zoom and Teams, Juniper is expanding our Large Experience Model (LEM). By ingesting labeled telemetry and applying deep learning, our LEM will predict and explain user experience degradations before they occur, enabling IT to shift from firefighting to foresight.
- Marvis AI now integrates multiple AI agents into its conversational interface, enabling more human-like, contextual dialogues. It understands user intent through advanced natural language processing (NLP), delivering precise answers for documentation and support, replacing traditional dashboards and CLIs with intuitive, goal-driven conversations.
And yes, we’re just getting started.
A moment to celebrate—a team to thank
We believe this recognition is not just about technology. It’s about people.
To the customers, engineers, data scientists, product managers, marketers, customer success teams, sellers, partners, and every Junivator who made this possible—thank you. Your passion, innovation, and commitment to excellence are what make Juniper, in our opinion, the most trusted name in AI-native networking. I would be remiss not to acknowledge Bob Friday for his extraordinary vision and leadership, which have been instrumental in shaping the success of the Mist brand. Without his guidance, we wouldn’t be where we are today. Thank you, Bob!
