User manual JUNIPER NETWORKS JUNOS SPACE SDK OVERVIEW

[. . . ] DATASHEET JuNoS SPaCE SDK Product Overview Application development has generally meant long, expensive development cycles, limited cross-application development leverage, and a network engineering-centric approach. This has forced developers to focus on costs, cycle times, and foundational code rather than innovative applications. [. . . ] Infrastructure Services--Access the platform's fundamental capabilities for use in creating applications that leverage network services. Network and Device Services--These services provide a model for interacting with devices that abstracts away the specifics of the device connection and communication protocols. 1 SQL Server Network Elements Space Applications UI App Business Logic App HTTP Interface Native App Web Service APIs Abstraction + Harmonization Junos Space Services Database Access--Applications have abstracted access to the underlying Junos Space database. other Space-hosted or external applications. It's a great way to collect insight, process and make available to others. Rich Applications ­ Design and implement fully native Space applications, that add capabilities to the platform, create new APIs for use by others and can integrate open APIs and data sources to further enrich their capabilities and experience. It's a robust way to own the experience, gather insight and take action. Integration ­ Access insight and take actions from external applications and services, Space web services allow you to access the capabilities of the platform through HTTP to further enrich the capabilities and experience of your stand-alone or externally hosted applications. It's a language independent method to access Space and to make your applications and services network aware. Building an Application The Junos Space SDK offers developers flexible options for creating applications. These include: Data Applications ­ Build applications that use and combine data, insight or functionality from the Space platform, its Apps or external sources to create new services. It's a fast and easy way to integrate open APIs and data sources to produce enriched results that were not necessarily the original reason for producing the raw source data. Workflows ­ Create new application logics to add capabilities to Space, while at the same time expressing through APIs for use in Features and Benefits FEAtuRES BENEFItS Junos Space plug-in for wizard-based Eclipse IDE Ext designer, Custom uI designer Simplified application development of Junos Space applications · Rapid creation of the primary Junos Space application types · Increased efficiency with custom features including grouping views, auto completion, syntax check, and wizards Rapid user interface prototyping · Easy, fast collaboration with development team members · Quick, easy integration of data stores into your interface from any data source (JSoN, XML, or custom) · Building rich Internet applications with industry standard JavaScript library · Ease of design and configuration with drag-and-drop designer components RESTful Web services · Reusable across popular platforms · Easily consumable services using basic XML rather than SoaP · Support for all typical CRuD (create, update, and delete) operations through HTTP methods Simulators, virtual machine included with the developer environment Fast, easy application performance and scale optimization by simulating Juniper runtime environment · Reduced test/staging costs with a fully functional instance of the Junos Space network application for test/ deployment of Junos Space SDK-based applications · ability to test applications against virtual Junos oS with the device and element simulators Juniper Networks Service and Support Juniper Networks is the leader in performance-enabling services and support, which are designed to accelerate, extend, and optimize the high-performance network.
