It's sad, HPE will suck out all the life-force of Juniper; I have had other HP-acquired products and they never got better in subsequent offerings, only worse.

Juniper died today.

We have been testing equipment from other vendors, so that we could replace Juniper in the future, it needed. Those plans just became much more relevant, unless the plan is that Juniper takes the lead on HPE networking.

HPE would have been purchased by Micro Focus is it wasn't a hardware company. It's really sad to see the decline, HP actually made some nice stuff, 15 - 20 years ago.

Rami (Juniper CEO) is staying and leading.

Famous HP(E) buyouts:

  - Digital Alpha: dead
  - Digital Storageworks: dead
  - Left Hand Networks: dead
  - 3par: dead

And these are only the ones that died in my own datacenter; the full list is much longer.

Aruba seems to have been mostly left alone post acquisition...

Nimble is still shockingly solid
