HPE Juniper Networking & CANCOM Austria: Self-Driving Networks for the digital future

Modern corporate networks are under enormous pressure: increasing demands on performance, security, scalability and user experience are compounded by growing operational complexity. Hybrid working, cloud transformation and data-intensive applications further intensify this dynamic.

This is precisely where the partnership between CANCOM Austria AG and HPE Juniper Networking comes in – with a clear goal: next-generation networks that intelligently manage, automate and self-optimise. As a leading Network Solutions Partner in Austria, CANCOM Austria AG is able to serve all domains.

Next-Generation Networking – powered by CANCOM & HPE

HPE Juniper Networking is one of the leading providers of network infrastructure solutions and covers all areas of modern IT infrastructure – from enterprise LAN and WLAN through to WAN, data centre networking and routing.

The solutions are based on:

• Cloud-native architectures
• Maximum performance and scalability
• Integrated security

Whether on campus, in a data centre or across multiple sites: flexible and future-proof networks are created using future-proof technologies and open standards.

Combined with CANCOM’s comprehensive implementation expertise and solutions, these technologies are optimally integrated into existing IT landscapes and operated sustainably.

A strong partnership at the highest level: Elite Plus status

CANCOM Austria is an Elite Plus Partner of HPE Juniper Networking – and thus the only partner in Austria to hold this highest partner status.

This exclusive status stands for:

• Proven technical excellence and extensive certifications
• A particularly close strategic collaboration with HPE Juniper Networking
• Direct access to innovations, roadmaps and extended support structures
• Successfully implemented enterprise projects in complex environments

For customers, this means a clear competitive advantage:
You are working with the leading and best-qualified Juniper partner in the Austrian market.

Local strength meets global technology

A key advantage for customers in Austria is the combination of world-leading technology and local expertise.

CANCOM is:

• A strong, local partner based in Austria
• With regional proximity to customers and a deep understanding of the market
• An end-to-end solutions partner – from consultancy through to day-to-day operations

This means: personalised support, short lines of communication and rapid response times, combined with future-proof technology from HPE Juniper Networking.

Comprehensive network expertise across all domains

Together, CANCOM and HPE Juniper Networking cover all relevant network areas:

Enterprise LAN & WLAN

AI-native solutions enable scalable, secure and highly automated campus networks – including zero-touch provisioning and high transparency.

Data Centre Networking

Modern spine-leaf architectures and the Apstra Data Centre Director enable intent-based, automated networks throughout the entire lifecycle.

WAN & SD-WAN

High-performance routing and SD-WAN solutions ensure secure, flexible and high-performance networking – optimised for cloud and SaaS applications.

Security

Juniper SRX next-generation firewalls offer comprehensive protection for the edge, data centres and the cloud.

AIOps & Automation

End-to-end visibility and intelligent analytics enable stable and efficient operations.

Self-Driving Networks: Intelligence in network operations

A key innovation pillar of HPE Juniper Networking is the concept of the ‘Self-Driving Network’.

Based on AIOps (Artificial Intelligence for IT Operations), these networks continuously analyse telemetry data in real time, enabling:

• Proactive detection of faults
• Automated root cause analysis
• Specific recommendations for action
• Partially autonomous optimisation and fault resolution

The result:
Significantly reduced complexity, greater stability and a noticeably improved user experience

CANCOM as a differentiating factor: expertise, services & innovation

Technology alone is not enough – what matters is careful planning, the right solution design, successful implementation and sustainable operation.

Certified experts with extensive project experience

CANCOM has a large number of highly qualified, certified HPE Juniper Networking specialists with:

• Many years’ experience in complex enterprise environments
• In-depth architectural and integration expertise
• Extensive expertise in day-to-day network operations

This ensures that network solutions are implemented in a bespoke, efficient and sustainable manner.

Service-based maintenance models as a clear unique selling point

A particular added value is provided by our own partner-service-based maintenance and operation models, which go well beyond traditional manufacturer services:

• Individually defined Service Level Agreements (SLAs)
• Direct access to CANCOM’s experienced network specialists
• Integration of manufacturer support and CANCOM services
• Full transparency and predictability in operations

Customers therefore receive not just a solution, but actively managed, high-availability network operations.

Unique in-house products for optimal network operations

Another key factor that sets CANCOM apart is its own innovative software solutions, which further optimise network operations.

One example: the CANCOM Inventory Engine

It enables:

• Asset management (complete transparency regarding the infrastructure in use)
• Lifecycle management (planning and control of upgrades and updates)
• Vulnerability management (early detection of security risks)

This makes network operations not only more efficient, but also more secure, predictable and strategically manageable.

Combined with AIOps and automation, this creates a holistic approach to modern, resilient IT infrastructures.
