The National Credit Union Federation of Korea Selects Juniper Networks for Major Data Center Modernization Project

SINGAPORE – November 2, 2016 – Juniper Networks (NYSE: JNPR), an industry leader in
automated, scalable and secure networks, today announced that the National Credit Union Federation of Korea
(CU), a nationwide
non-profit financial cooperative offering a wide range of banking services to
nearly six million members across Korea, has selected Juniper Networks’
switching, routing and security solutions for deployment in a major data center
modernization project.

Managing almost USD 62
billion of assets through over 906 cooperatives and 1,656 branches nationwide,
CU has experienced consistent growth in scope and scale across its operations.
As a result, the improvement of workflow efficiency, network reliability and
utilization were key priorities for the data center modernization project,
which are areas where Juniper’s products, including the EX line of Ethernet
Switches and MX line of routers, are well placed to offer best-fit levels of performance,
professional service and support.

In addition, CU has also deployed a substantial number of L2
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) switches from Juniper, including the EX3300 Ethernet
Switch and EX2200 Ethernet Switch for separate IPT and Network Isolation
projects. Juniper’s broad experience and expertise in automation will play a
key role in the seamless operation of CU’s nationwide network, and address the
need to comply with the network separation policy for financial companies
required by the Financial Supervisory Service (FSS).

“Having experienced consistent business growth, we’ve seen rapidly increasing loads and demands on CU’s network. This large-scale data center modernization project has allowed us to build the foundation of a competitive next-generation networking infrastructure for CU. As we planned the upgrades for our smart data center, as well as the IPT and Network Isolation projects, Juniper’s scalable, agile and future-proof solutions and services provided the performance, automation and security we needed.” 

“We’re delighted to be the networking partner selected by CU for their major networking infrastructure upgrades. The financial sector is a key priority for Juniper in Korea, and one we intend to continuously nurture through a vertical-focused sales and marketing model that combines dedicated commitment and a thorough understanding of our customers’ long-term requirements.”
