Zayo has unveiled DynamicLink , a next-generation Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) platform built to deliver real-time control, AI-powered intelligence, and seamless scalability across its global connectivity footprint.
What DynamicLink Brings to the Table
DynamicLink is more than just an incremental upgrade; it is designed to surpass traditional NaaS by combining Zayo's scale with smart automation, self-service, and built-in security. It spans 28,000 on-net locations and 1,200 data centers, enabling clients to manage connectivity across cloud, edge, and off-net sites with greater agility.Key capabilities include:
- Real-Time Network Configuration: Instantly deploy services like Ethernet, IP-VPN, DIA, and CloudLink wherever the customer has presence.
- Self-Service Management: Users can tweak bandwidth, add connectivity, or adjust routes via a portal—no manual provisioning needed.
- Built-in Security & Observability: Security controls, traffic monitoring, geolocation mapping, and policy enforcement are baked into the platform.
- AI-Powered Provisioning: A generative AI agent helps users issue “plain language” commands (eg “Add a 10G link between site A and cloud B”) and execute them instantly.
Why DynamicLink Marks a Shift in NaaS
The NaaS market has often been challenged by limited reach, complexity, and dependence on manual operators. Analysts see DynamicLink as a leap forward directly integrating Zayo's wide infrastructure with AI-backed control and self-service simplicity.In the words of Roy Chua, analyst at AvidThink:
“DynamicLink combines Zayo's extensive footprint with AI-assisted, self-service capabilities, delivering a comprehensive yet user-friendly solution.”
What to Watch & What This Enables
- Faster deployment cycles: Tasks that once took weeks can now be done in seconds
- Greater operational autonomy: Enterprises can reduce dependency on network teams and move decisions closer to application owners.
- Scalability with control: As usage grows across hybrid / edge / cloud environments, the platform aims to maintain both performance and governance.
- Continuous enhancement: Zayo plans to expand DynamicLink capabilities over time, adding more services, richer analytics, and deeper AI routines.
