Case Study
Globally Acclaimed University Builds an Innovative New Data Center Interconnect
This Juniper Networks Case Study details how the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), a globally acclaimed university, addressed its critical business challenge of securely and resiliently interconnecting its campus network with shared data centers.
