Insider Perspectives On Network-As-A-Service (NaaS)
Gestalt IT, Monday, January 6th, 2025
Futurum Intelligence recently released its CIO Insights dataset that reveals what IT leaders think are their biggest challenges in 2025. A staggering majority (89.9%) says that they see talent acquisition and retention as their greatest problem.
This checks out with and explains the general excitement around as-a-service solutions. In networking, the interest in network-as-a-service (NaaS) offerings is getting palpable, and vendors like Nile and Meter are reinventing the old space with simple, but unorthodox solutions.
Offered on a cloud-based model that lets users sign up for a small monthly fee, NaaS solutions give companies the chance to avail a variety of support options without any capital investment. Like cloud, these offer ready-to-consume network infrastructures and integrated solutions that can be rented and used on flexible plans.
