What are network services?

Network services are a network application layer that connects users remotely to the applications and data in a network using servers.

1. Secure Access Services Edge

   Network services include connectivity via the internet, the cloud, private data centers, or virtual services. Secure access service edge (SASE) is a type of network architecture.

   SASE combines software-defined wide-area network (SD-WAN) and cloud functions. It can provide the user with secure connections from any location.

2. Network As A Service

   Network as a service (NaaS) is a cloud service that allows companies to operate their networks without physical brick-and-mortar overhead. NaaS is a simplified way to manage connective technology and its use.

3. Content Delivery Network

   A content delivery network (CDN) is a system that many organizations now use. It is a server and storage system. It is used to remotely share content, applications, media, and more across a company.

   This type of technology optimizes bandwidth usage. If intelligent network services are part of the CDN, they can also provide security.
