"NaaS" has become one of the most overloaded terms in networking, vendors attach it to everything from a switch financing plan to a fully managed global fabric. raymota1.substack.com/p/what… #Mplify #NaaS

AI infrastructure: $9.3B in hyperscaler orders in FY26, ~4.5x last year, 3 new design wins in Q4 alone. Hardware refresh: campus networking orders up 20% YoY, and ~7% of the installed base has been refreshed so far. This is late, not early. raymota1.substack.com/p/cisc… @Cisco #AI
