The US Department of Justice has approved HPE’s $14 billion acquisition of Juniper Networks, provided that HPE divests its Instant On business and licenses Juniper's AI Ops technology. This strategic move aims to enhance competition in the global networking market, with CEO Antonio Neri optimistic about growth in AI data centers and cloud segments. With combined revenues potentially reaching $10 billion, HPE seeks to strengthen its position in the datacenter arena. The move is seen as a response to rivals like Cisco and Nvidia increasing their presence in networking and AI management.
HPE's acquisition of Juniper is approved by the DoJ, contingent on divesting Instant On and licensing AI Ops for Mist, promising customer competition.
Antonio Neri stated that the deal will accelerate HPE's growth in AI data center and cloud segments, enhancing competition in the networking market.
If combined revenues from Juniper and HPE grow, they could achieve around $10 billion in networking revenue, possibly becoming the third player in the datacenter market.
With plans to leverage AI for automatic management of Aruba gear, HPE aims to boost its growth against competitors like Cisco and Nvidia in networking.
