Advisory and Enablement Service
Prepare for exponential
AI-driven demands
The surge of AI-driven traffic is pushing network capacity, performance, and efficiency to their limits. Manual processes and siloed systems can鈥檛 adapt fast enough, creating operational risk and constraining innovation. Ciena brings together our advisory, Navigator Network Control Suite鈩 (Navigator NCS) API integration, solution validation, and managed Emulation Cloud鈩 capabilities to simplify complexity by enabling smarter planning, automating operations, and enabling confident scaling for the AI era.
Advisory
We collaborate with you to cut through complexity with deep domain knowledge and a hands-on approach. Our experts analyze network data from all available sources and create a single, accurate, and unified network view. From there, we uncover inefficiencies, highlight risks, and reveal improvement opportunities. And when gaps emerge that off-the-shelf tools can鈥檛 address, purpose-built software provides a direct path to resolution. Together, we prioritize areas with the greatest impact鈥攑roviding clarity, reducing risk, and accelerating results across growth, transformation, and daily operations.
