AIOps Capabilities Fuel Growth in Cloud-Managed Revenue
According to a recently published report from Dell'Oro Group, Campus NaaS (CNaaS) revenue growth far outpaced the rest of the LAN market. Meter, Join Digital, Nile, Ramen and Shasta Cloud all gained traction with their LAN-as-a-Utility offers.
"AIOps is a game-changer for both enterprises and vendors," said Siân Morgan, Research Director at Dell'Oro Group. "For vendors selling Public Cloud-Managed WLAN and Campus Switches, AIOps features are causing software revenue to grow faster than hardware sales. CNaaS vendors are also relying on AIOps to lower the cost of delivering a fully outsourced LAN.
"The 2025 market data shows that enterprises are increasingly willing to sign up to contracts and pay recurring fees for AIOps features, because they can reduce the effort spent on managing the network, and refocus on new AI-related projects," continued Morgan.
Additional highlights from the report:
- Public Cloud-Managed LAN revenue is expected to grow by double-digits in 2025 and continue to outpace the LAN market over the next five years.
- HPE's Cloud-Managed offer has grown faster than the market, despite its acquisition of the second-ranked Public Cloud-Managed vendor: Juniper.
- CNaaS revenue is accelerating due to the development of new features and increased traction with channel partners.
