Nipa Cloud (Nipa), a leading cloud services provider in Thailand, has chosen Juniper Networks to strengthen its existing network infrastructure in support of Nipa's growth momentum, and in anticipation of further growing demand for endpoint flexibility amidst Thailand's rapidly transforming digital economy.

As Thailand's first full-service OpenStack public cloud services provider powered by Tungsten Fabric, Nipa is dedicated to providing technologically advanced cloud solutions that compete with global providers while also adding value to the local market through greater flexibility, multiple availability zones (AZ), modularity, and local knowledge as a homegrown provider.

Nipa's award-winning cloud solutions have quickly gained market share despite fierce competition thanks to this 'glocalized' approach, especially as Thailand's economy develops a strong IT infrastructure to support sustained growth into the digital era as part of the government's 'Thailand 4.0' policies and fourth industrial revolution.

With the ongoing post-pandemic recovery encouraging Thai firms to prioritise innovation and cloud spending, this movement has gained even more traction recently. Thailand's cloud infrastructure spending is expected to grow 28.2% in 2022 alone, outpacing global forecasts. Infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) is expected to see the fastest growth as Thai enterprises scale up infrastructure and migrate complex workloads to the cloud to better enable a remote work culture.

In order to improve its campus and data centre networks and further differentiate its offers, Nipa has introduced Juniper Networks EVPN-VXLAN solutions, including the QFX5120 Series Switches and MX10003/MX204 Series Universal Routing Platforms.

These upgrades allow Nipa to now deploy a common set of policies and services across campuses with support for Layer 2 and Layer 3 VPNs. In addition, Nipa can better deliver enhanced throughput, scalability, capacity, performance, and security, enabling Nipa to continue developing its ground-up cloud solutions, uniquely built for Thailand’s fast-developing enterprises and its rapidly transforming digital ecosystem.
