Enterprise networking is too large and complex, we need AI Operations. This spotlight episode of the Tech Field Day podcast features Bob Friday and Ben Baker, both from Juniper Networks, with Jack Poller and Alastair Cooke. Modern enterprise networks reach far beyond the well-controlled walls of data centres and corporate buildings. The rate of change enabled by public cloud platforms makes an enterprise network highly dynamic. Access to cloud and on-premises applications over the Internet means your users are dependent on many network elements outside of your control. Bob founded Mist Networks to help businesses manage the complexity of user-to-cloud networking. Juniper Networks acquired Mist, and now HPE has acquired Juniper. I don’t think he is alone in seeing the necessity of using AI to manage complex and critical networks. Yet new tools always bring new challenges; the cost of AI infrastructure may be a concern, and Generative AI has challenges with hallucinations. The security and governance practices around AI tools are still developing, and the non-deterministic nature of AI needs careful consideration.Host⁠Alastair Cooke⁠, Tech Field Day Event LeadJuniper Representatives: Bob Friday, Chief AI Officer at HPE Juniper NetworksBen Baker, Data Center Marketing at HPE Juniper NetworksDelegatesJack Poller, Principal Analyst, Paradigm TechnicaFollow the Tech Field Day Podcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠on X/Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠on Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠ and use the Hashtag #TFDPodcast to join the discussion.
