What Is

What is Network as a Service (NaaS)?

Network as a Service (NaaS) is a subscription model where you consume networking functions through the cloud instead of buying and managing hardware. It includes services like connectivity, routing, switching, security, and monitoring, delivered through a platform and billed on usage or a fixed term. 

How NaaS Works 

In a traditional setup, your team handles network design, hardware procurement, software upgrades, and device management. With NaaS, the provider takes care of all that. You define the performance and policy requirements. The provider delivers it through centralized infrastructure, with real-time control and visibility through a portal. 

NaaS can include SD-WAN, LAN and Wi-Fi services, firewalls, load balancing, and remote access. You can scale it up or down, track usage, and reduce the need for large capital expenditure. 

Why NaaS Is Picking Up in India 

More Indian enterprises are moving to cloud-first models and hybrid work. At the same time, managing networks across distributed locations is becoming harder. NaaS offers a practical way to improve agility, lower operating complexity, and reduce upfront investment. 

It works well for retail chains, distributed offices, smart campuses, and startups that want enterprise-grade performance without owning network infrastructure. Many businesses use it to launch new locations faster and to keep IT teams focused on business priorities.
