BANGKOK-- February 21, 2022 -- Juniper Networks (NYSE: JNPR), a leader in secure, AI-driven networks, today announced that Nipa Cloud (Nipa), a leading cloud services provider in Thailand, has selected Juniper Networks to strengthen its existing network infrastructure in support of Nipa’s growth momentum, and in anticipation of further growing demand for endpoint flexibility amidst Thailand’s rapidly transforming digital economy.

As Thailand’s first full-service OpenStack public cloud services provider powered by Tungsten Fabric, Nipa is committed to offering technologically advanced cloud solutions that match up competitively to the solutions from global providers while simultaneously creating unique value add for the localized market through greater flexibility, multiple availability zones (AZ), modularity and local understanding as a homegrown provider.

With this ‘glocalized’ approach, Nipa’s award-winning cloud solutions have rapidly gained market share amidst stiff competition, especially as Thailand’s economy builds out a strong IT infrastructure to support sustained growth into the digital era as per the government’s ‘Thailand 4.0’ policies and its fourth industrial revolution.

This push has seen even further recent impetus, with the ongoing post-pandemic recovery spurring Thai businesses to increasingly prioritize innovation and investment toward cloud spending. Outpacing global forecasts, Thailand’s spending on cloud infrastructure is projected to grow 28.2% in 2022 alone, with infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) expected to see the highest growth figures as Thai enterprises scale up infrastructure and migrate complex workloads to the cloud to better enable a remote work culture.

In light of its strong growth momentum and this increasing demand for cloud services across Thailand’s enterprises, Nipa has deployed EVPN-VXLAN solutions from Juniper Networks, including the QFX5120 Series Switches and MX10003/MX204 Series Universal Routing Platforms, to upgrade its campus and data center networks and better differentiate its offerings.

These upgrades allow Nipa to now deploy a common set of policies and services across campuses with support for Layer 2 and Layer 3 VPNs. In addition, Nipa is now able to better deliver enhanced throughput, scalability, capacity, performance and security - enabling Nipa to continue development of its ground-up cloud solutions, uniquely built for Thailand’s fast- developing enterprises and its rapidly transforming digital ecosystem.
