Juniper Networks PSDP enables customers and partners to develop specialized, value-added applications on its best-in-class JUNOS Software. These specialized applications can be used in individual customers' networks or, as in the case of StreamScope eRM, sold and supported as Juniper product offerings after undergoing extensive validation testing by Juniper Networks. By delivering applications that are tightly integrated with JUNOS and run directly on Juniper routing platforms, the PSDP enables customers to purchase a broader portfolio of end-to-end solutions through Juniper's direct and indirect channels. "Service providers need to be more proactive at managing high-bandwidth video traffic, and the integration of video analysis and monitoring into routing platforms can accomplish this with maximum scale and performance," said Ray Mota, chief research officer, Synergy Research Group.
