AI‑powered Network‑as‑a‑Service (NaaS) is transforming enterprise networking by enabling “lights‑out” operations through automation, intelligence, and consumption‑based delivery. As AI, cloud, and edge workloads increase network complexity, AI‑driven NaaS uses continuous monitoring, self‑healing, and predictive optimization to reduce manual management, improve performance, and scale on demand. The model shifts networking from a capital‑intensive infrastructure to a flexible, outcome‑driven service that supports modern, data‑intensive applications.
