Nile launches a Generative AI engine (NXI) to proactively detect and resolve enterprise network issues

Nile is a Nile is a private, venture-funded technology company specializing in AI-driven network and security infrastructure services for enterprises and government organizations. Nile has pioneered the use of AI and machine learning in enterprise networking. Its latest generative AI capability, Nile Experience Intelligence (NXI), proactively resolves network issues before they impact users or IT teams, automating fault detection, root cause analysis, and remediation at scale. This approach reduces manual intervention, eliminates alert fatigue, and ensures high performance and uptime by autonomously managing networks.

Significant Innovations Include:

  • Automated site surveys and network design using AI and machine learning

  • Digital twins for simulating and optimizing network operations

  • Edge-to-cloud zero-trust security built into all service components

  • Closed-loop automation for continuous optimization without human intervention

Today, the company announced the launch of Nile Experience Intelligence (NXI), a novel generative AI capability designed to proactively resolve network issues before they impact IT teams, users, IoT devices, or the performance standards defined by Nile’s Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) guarantee.  As a core component of the Nile Access Service [1.], NXI uniquely enables Nile to take advantage of its comprehensive, built-in AI automation capabilities.  NXI allows Nile to autonomously monitor every customer deployment at scale, identifying performance anomalies and network degradations that impact reliability and user experience. While others market their offerings as NaaS, only the Nile Access Service with NXI delivers a financially backed performance guarantee—an unmatched industry standard.

Note 1. Nile Access Service is a campus Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) platform that delivers both wired and wireless LAN connectivity with integrated Zero Trust Networking (ZTN), automated lifecycle management, and a unique industry-first performance guarantee. The service is built on a vertically integrated stack of hardware, software, and cloud-based management, leveraging continuous monitoring, analytics, and AI-powered automation to simplify deployment, automate maintenance, and optimize network performance.

“Traditional networking and NaaS offerings based on service packs rely on IT organizations to write rules that are static and reactive, which requires continuous management. Nile and NXI flipped that approach by using generative AI to anticipate and resolve issues across our entire install base, before users or IT teams are even aware of them,” said Suresh Katukam, Chief Product Officer at Nile. “With NXI, instead of providing recommendations and asking customers to write rules that involve manual interaction—we’re enabling autonomous operations that provide a superior and uninterrupted user experience.”

Key capabilities include:

  • Proactive Fault Detection and Root Cause Analysis: predictive modeling-based data analysis of billions of daily events, enabling proactive insights across Nile’s entire customer install base.
  • Large Scale Automated Remediation: leveraging the power of generative AI and large language models (LLMs), NXI automatically validates and implements resolutions without manual intervention, virtually eliminating customer-generated trouble tickets.
  • Eliminate Alert Fatigue: NXI eliminates alert overload by shifting focus from notifications to autonomous, actionable resolution, ensuring performance and uptime without IT intervention.

Unlike rules-based systems dependent on human-configured logic and manual maintenance, NXI is:

  • Generative AI and self-learning powered, eliminating the need for static, manually created rules that are prone to human error and require ongoing maintenance.
  • Designed for scale, NXI already processes terabytes of data daily and effortlessly scales to manage thousands of networks simultaneously.
  • Built on Nile’s standardized architecture, enabling consistent AI-driven optimization across all customer networks at scale.
  • Closed-loop automated, no dashboards or recommended actions for customers to interpret, and no waiting on manual intervention.

Katukam added, “NXI is a game-changer for Nile. It enables us to stay ahead of user experience and continuously fine-tune the network to meet evolving needs. This is what true autonomous networking looks like—proactive, intelligent, and performance-guaranteed.”

From improved connectivity to consistent performance, Nile customers are already seeing the impact of NXI. For more information about NXI and Nile’s secure Network as a Service platform, visit www.nilesecure.com.
