0:03 Cloud first for us um really starts at
0:06 all of our services being available all
0:08 of the time to everyone that needs
0:10 access to them the pain points that we
0:12 had um with our old network was the
0:15 number of devices that we had to try and
0:17 get connected to the network but also at
0:19 the same time the number of tickets that
0:20 were generated out of users not getting
0:23 connected to the network and that end
0:25 user experience not being where it
0:26 should be at for us the the new vision
0:28 is to have a CL only architecture or
0:31 Cloud first
0:32 architecture working with the the teams
0:35 at Juniper we found a real partnership
0:37 we found lots and lots of useful
0:39 insights and and help from the team that
0:42 helped us really build out our Network
0:44 how we would want to see it happen and
0:47 how it should be delivered with our
0:48 device connectivity being at the
0:50 Forefront and the end user experience I
0:53 think the main piece with juniper was
0:54 that they have some really excellent
0:56 Innovative features the open apis as
0:59 well well that's always a good thing to
1:01 have the ability to link in with our
1:03 existing systems and new systems that
1:06 we're we're looking at bringing online I
1:08 think that the piece about Juniper just
1:11 integrating with everyone corporate
1:13 education lots of different vendors and
1:16 lots of accesses to them and then on the
1:18 Eco side of it um what we found is that
1:21 we've actually um sort of doubled our
1:23 coverage but we've actually reduced the
1:25 amount of power that's needed to run
1:27 that expanded areas and coverage and den
1:30 it an AI native Network means for me
1:34 that we can spend a lot less time just
1:36 administrating pieces of infrastructure
1:39 and we can spend more time doing
1:40 Innovative pieces of work and really
1:42 focusing on on our customer experience
1:45 and that's what we get from juniper
