Networks Reimagined: Scalable, Automated, Resilient, And Sustainable
The network is increasingly being seen as a commodity service; in some cases, it is less strategic. Along with this is coming the services mindset, leveraging Network as a Service (NaaS) model to drive on-demand connectivity. Unified network operation center (NOC) and security operation center (SOC) operations are emerging to ensure proactive incident management, business continuity, and compliance across hybrid environments. Organizations are also experimenting with generative AI (Gen AI) and increasingly leveraging agentic AI to enhance monitoring, predictive maintenance, and troubleshooting, resulting in faster detection and more secure operations. Sustainability has become central, with the adoption of energy-efficient devices, renewable-powered infrastructure, and optimized designs to reduce environmental impact. In response, service providers are expanding capabilities with enterprise-wide SASE, zero-trust access, agentic AI-driven NOCs, and intent-based networks, delivering agile, intelligent, and secure networks for the future.
