JouleX is proud to have been featured at Juniper’s 7th Annual Americas Partner Conference this week in Phoenix. Tom Noonan, JouleX CEO, and Kevin Johnson, Juniper CEO, shared the stage to show the ease at pulling energy consumption and utilization information from all network-connected devices and systems (particularly Juniper devices) and the ease at which it is possible by integrating through the Juniper Junos Space Software Development Kit (SDK).
Tom demonstrated how the JouleX Energy Manager (JEM) agentless technology acts as a virtual energy meter, and with it a company does not have to install smart meters or physical meters to retrieve energy data on IP-connected devices. JEM runs entirely as a network application and does not require agents or other software on any endpoint that is measured. To achieve this, JouleX has worked closely with manufacturers, such as Juniper to integrate with its newly released Junos Space SDK. Junos Space provides energy data to the JouleX Energy Manager. The energy data reported by Junos Space can be easily integrated with other device energy data.
With JEM, you can view energy information in context to your business:
- By application
- By facility or location
- By rack in a datacenter
- By make or model of device
- By organization or business unit
- Or a variety of other means
Juniper’s rich set of services with Junos Space SDK allows JEM to quickly integrate and collect energy information in a matter of minutes. Just by adding the Junos Space Asset Connector, JEM immediately begins monitoring the energy on any device being managed by Junos Space.
The ability to view energy is important to our customers. The integration of Junos Space SDK and JEM allows our joint customers to closely monitor energy in the datacenter and throughout their enterprise networks - giving them the ability to better manage their procurement processes and achieve corporate sustainability goals.

Juniper today announced the availability of its Junos® Space SDK of which JouleX is proud to be an early adopter. JouleX uses the Junos Space SDK to integrate into the JouleX Energy Manager platform, providing Juniper clients new opportunities to support their sustainability objectives, increase energy efficiency, reduce their carbon footprint and realize significant cost savings through unprecedented visibility into the energy consumption and utilization of all devices connected to their network. The JouleX Energy Manager utilizes Junos Space to retrieve actual energy consumption data from the Juniper switching and routing infrastructure. JouleX Energy Manager remotely monitors each network-connected device and provides a policy/rules engine to actively power-down devices and systems when they are not needed or idle un-productive or under-utilized computing resources. The JouleX reporting and decision support system provides energy management reporting and tracking for energy consumption, carbon emissions, and costs as well as savings by device, department, cost center, division, location and the enterprise.
JouleX applauds Juniper for their work with the Junos Space SDK as it provides clients with tremendous opportunity to gain more control over energy consumption and utilization throughout their data center, distributed office, PC environment and entire enterprise through the JouleX application.
