Marvis Virtual Network Assistant for Data Center

A key component of Juniper Apstra Cloud Services is the Marvis Virtual Network Assistant (VNA) for Data Center, which is the AI-native virtual network assistant for data center operations. Marvis VNA for Data Center combines the power of AI and the intent-driven approach of Apstra in building and operating data center.

Marvis VNA ingests the network event information received from the Apstra Edge component, analyzes them and provides network administrators actionable insights and recommendations to resolve an event. Marvis VNA performs root cause analysis for the events received from the edge and displays them in Marvis Actions under different event categories. Administrators can quickly examine such events at the click of a button or, if more troubleshooting is required, they can access Juniper Apstra and perform the recommended steps to resolve the issue. All these can happen in real-time before network traffic is affected.

In addition to Marvis Actions, Juniper Apstra Cloud Services also provides Marvis Conversational Interface (CI), which supports natural language processing (NLP), to search documentation in Juniper Networks Documentation and Knowledge Base. Network administrators can use Marvis CI to ask queries in natural language and Marvis CI will look up relevant documentation repositories and generate the answer. This will enable network administrators to resolve the issues faster without having to manually navigate through different documents to obtain the required information.
