Highlighting the top three requirements for a successful NaaS deployment
Network as a Service (NaaS) is a new digital business technology approach that is redefining how organizations create, consume and adapt connectivity and network capabilities. By streamlining internal operations, it enables service providers to transform the experience they offer to their enterprise customers. NaaS can be used by service providers both internally to expose network services for the IT department to consume whilst streamlining internal operational processes (as for example at Telstra), and externally to offer enterprise customers the ability to buy network resources and connectivity as a service which they can manage and adapt to their own specific needs (as for example at Globe). NaaS means optimizing resource allocation by considering network and computing resources as a unified whole.
NaaS, with a complementary marketplace, enables value-added services and infrastructure to be ordered and managed via an enterprise self-service portal. This provides a single unified view, in near real-time, of on-demand connectivity to clouds, data centers, applications and services as well as of virtual network functions (VNFs) from the full range of vendors in the third-party ecosystem.
NaaS is now changing the traditional network experience offered to enterprises into a transformed business and customer experience that delivers the choice, agility and control to match rising enterprise customer business needs, enabling them to engage and interact with employees, partners and their own end customers in new, diverse ways.
