“I’m honored to take on this new leadership role as PacketFabric aims to accelerate growth and capture more of the NaaS market,” Oligny said. “The industry is still emergent, but maturing quickly, and more and more customers expect to be able to order and turn up network services for their hybrid cloud and multi-cloud infrastructure on-demand and at the push of a button. The rise of artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and other data-intensive technologies is testing the reliability and resiliency of enterprise networks like never before. PacketFabric’s global carrier-grade, fully redundant network as a service is tailor-made to solve these network issues for our customers and partners.”
