Today’s network services are complex:
The cost and complexity of developing and integrating in-house network management may to too high for many NRENs and Institutions
Out-of-the-box solutions might not be suitable and might be costly
NMaaS aims to support these users to provide an effective, efficient network and service management platform
NMaaS simplifies intra-domain network management by providing the infrastructure and tools via a cloud-based, network management system.
It enables management and monitoring of client networks through on-demand deployment of network management tools in the cloud infrastructure.
Using a multi-tenant approach, each NREN or Institution has private access to their network and services from a highly available cloud based platform.
