Zayo, a leading communications infrastructure provider, has launched DynamicLink, a software-defined Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) platform that surpasses Gartner's definition of true NaaS. DynamicLink offers real-time control, AI-powered intelligence, and broad capabilities across Zayo's network, enabling organizations to turn up, scale, and manage connections with unprecedented agility.
DynamicLink provides self-service for DIA, Ethernet, Cloudlink, and IP-VPN.
Spans 28K on-net locations and 1.2K data centers with built-in security.
Features industry-first GenAI agent for plain-language provisioning.
Enables connections in seconds, no physical equipment required.
Addresses market volatility with chaos-proof networking.
Expands Zayo's as-a-service offerings for future innovation.
Traditional NaaS has fallen short on automation and scaling, but DynamicLink delivers Gartner's vision: highly automated configuration with self-service interfaces. "We aren’t the first to market here, but we are the first to get it right," said Bill Long, Chief Product & Strategy Officer at Zayo. "Today’s organizations aren’t just future-proofing, they’re chaos-proofing." The platform overlays Zayo's 19.1 million fiber miles, providing unmatched reach and simplicity.
DynamicLink integrates tools for seamless network management:
Real-Time Configuration: Provision 1G, 10G, or 100G connections instantly across clouds and on-net sites.
Self-Service Management: Adjust bandwidth, cloud connectivity, and configurations without tickets.
Built-In Security: Enterprise-grade protection without separate appliances.
End-to-End Observability: Monitor performance with geolocation mapping and threat visibility.
AI Agent: Use natural language commands like "add a 5Gbps connection between Chicago and AWS."
"The NaaS market has been plagued by a fundamental disconnect—solutions were either useful or usable, but not both," said Roy Chua, founder and industry analyst at AvidThink. DynamicLink resolves this with Zayo's footprint and AI-assisted provisioning.
In an era of AI adoption and market shifts, DynamicLink ensures networks adapt as quickly as business needs. It eliminates weeks-long provisioning, reducing costs and enhancing reliability for carriers, cloud providers, data centers, and enterprises.
Zayo's launch of DynamicLink marks a pivotal advancement in NaaS, empowering organizations with intelligent, scalable networking. Future expansions will further simplify and automate the connectivity experience.
For more than 17 years, Zayo has empowered some of the world’s largest and most innovative companies to connect what’s next for their business. The Zayo group of companies connects 400 global markets with future-ready networks that span over 19.1 million fiber miles and 147,000 route miles. Zayo’s tailored connectivity solutions and managed services enable carriers, cloud providers, data centers, schools, and enterprises to deliver exceptional experiences, from core to cloud to edge.
