During his participation in Networking Field Day, Faisal Khan discovered Nile, a young startup offering Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) solutions. Nile’s unique approach to technology and product offering impressed him, as they simplify network operations by managing the hardware, software, and network maintenance for enterprises. While NaaS may not be suitable for every organization, Faisal suggests that Nile could expand its market by offering modular and customizable NaaS solutions to cater to different customer segments and eliminate vendor lock-in, similar to the success of cloud services with their varied IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS options.
