This is not limited to the packet space - any reputable DWDM vendor is now building for, what's the new buzzword these days, ah yes, "Webscale" :-|... Juniper have, generally, struggled with the non-Ethernet market. They did okay during the M-series era, but as Cisco moved away from the 7500 series to the 10000 series to the 2600/2800 series to the 7200 series and now to the ASR1000, Juniper never thought to play in that space. Then again, with everything being Ethernet now, it's probably cheaper to buy an MX240/480/960 or ASR9000-chassis-based in lieu of an ASR1000. And this why non-Ethernet + low-speed Ethernet from Cisco and Juniper is seeing a decline in development interest from them.
