Our use case is among the 10 largest Brazilian banks, with more than 6 million accounts and presence in all Brazilian states. The institution showed annual growth of 27.6%. Its main businesses include universal banking, savings, loans and mutual insurance. And Stoneground has approved equipment from Juniper Networks to improve stability, and also to deliver the performance required to support guarantee high throughput and scalability, and ensure compatibility with new technologies

We use the EX series for switching. We use both POE and the standard option. We mainly use 48 port ones because we have quite a large area to cover for networking. We use three or four VLANs on each. The models we use are the EX 2300 and 3300. We use the Juniper SRX 3040s in a cluster configuration and we have five offices around the globe. And our main office is in Bristol and has two 3034s in the cluster configuration. We've also got a VPN between all the sites. Our other sites use SRX 3020s, which will allow a gigabit to pass through on the firewall. Our company has about 150 people spread across five continents with multiple offices across the globe. There are four of us at the moment in my team that deal with the actual devices.

The version we're using depends on the model. We use QFX a lot, including versions 5100, 5110, and 5120. For the 4300 and 4400 campus switches, we're running version 21.4. The solution is deployed on-premises. Juniper doesn't support cloud. Juniper just bought an orchestration management platform called Abstract. Abstract is all greenfield, meaning that it's designed to be built from the ground up. You can't incorporate it with the existing infrastructure. We have over a million users. I work for AWS, so we do a lot of deployment in Juniper.

Juniper Ethernet Switches are used in data centers, corporate offices, branch offices, factory environments, and business ops part of the factory environments. Wherever there are wireless networks we use the Cisco Meraki's and Arubas. Wherever there are firewalls, we use the Check Points, Cisco ASAs, FortiGate, and Juniper.

We use it across our whole environment. We use it for everything from our core to our edge. It is basically deployed everywhere. A good percentage of our Juniper switches are in a stacked array. For example, we do four 48-port switches for a wiring closet in a building. They're all stacked together, and they call it ActivChassis. Most companies, such as HP, ADTRAN, also do the same kind of thing. So, we do a virtual chassis formation in our wiring closet. For smaller buildings that only need one switch, we do a single switch at the distant end. We have a lot from the 2300 Series. We have one 3300 and quite a few from the 3400 Series. We also have one 4550, and we have also been buying the 4350 series ones.

We use Juniper Ethernet switches to connect to other switches and computers. We are a public service company providing the backbone network for our country. We have the highest level of concentration. We provide our services to some 45 other big operators because we are a carrier's carrier. Not all of this is on one switch as our network stretches across three countries and five cities. We have 12 data centers and not all of them use Juniper switches. We use Juniper switches in two central data centers, to which we connected 12 customers and 20 backbone instances.

A lot of our deployments are hybrid cloud that we do for clients. We are personally using an on-premises installation. Our clients' use cases for Juniper Ethernet Switches are pretty broad as far as the industries covered. There are clients that are urgent care facilities, physician's offices, legal offices, restaurants — it really runs across the boards as far as industries. The USDA has a number of Juniper switches that we put in for them.

I'm a manager and we're a user and customer of Juniper. The primary use case is for our network connectivity, for our wireless access. We use it as a POP port and through the radio-network connectivity, it's used for all purposes, like wireless data and e-mails, whatever it is. We use it for video conferencing, basic network switching, really for all purposes. We have about 100 staff using the solution and at any one time, there are around 700 to 800 network divisors connected to the network.
