Oil India Limited has selected Juniper Networks to upgrade its data centre and campus networks to support the company’s sustainability goals and digital transformation journey.

With a flexible, high-performance Juniper IP fabric, Oil India will be able to automate key business and operational processes, increasing its business agility and creating more seamless experience for customers.

Juniper’s QFX5120 Series Switches were deployed in the data centres at Oil India’s headquarters in Duliajan, Assam, while the combination of QFX5120 and QFX5110 Switches serve as a resilient campus core. Oil India also selected the EX4300 Series Switches for its campus distribution layer and adopted a spine-leaf architecture with EVPN-VXLAN for the campus core. With the EVPN-VXLAN fabric from Juniper, the Oil India team can efficiently build and connect their primary data centre, near disaster recovery data centre and campus core networks, in an agile, seamless and secure manner. The network also supports the use of business process automation tools, which have helped the team reduce workloads and achieve faster turnaround times, resulting in better service experiences for their customers.

Further, Juniper’s SRX4200 Service Gateways, Security Director, and Junos Space Network Director were selected to configure and manage application security, intelligence and policies across networks to protect Oil India’s data centres. These new data centres also support the company’s use of autonomous drones and video analytics to detect leaks faster and protect against illegal activities. This enables it to address health, safety and environmental issues across 2,000 kilometres of pipeline in a swift and effective manner.
