Add to basketThis book explores how Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Software-Defined Networking (SDN) can transform the way modern networks are designed, secured, and operated. In an era shaped by cloud computing, IoT, 5G, and edge computing, traditional network management is no longer enough―this book reveals how AI agents bring autonomy, intelligence, and adaptability to meet these challenges.
The book starts with the foundational concepts in AI and SDN, guiding readers toward advanced architectures and real-world applications. It examines urgent needs such as scalable, self-healing networks and proactive cybersecurity, showing how AI techniques―including reinforcement learning, graph neural networks, and explainable AI―can achieve intent-based networking, cognitive healing, federated learning, and intelligent automation. Each chapter combines conceptual overviews with detailed discussions, case studies, and actionable insights, making it accessible to students, researchers, engineers, and decision-makers alike. It bridges technical depth with broader considerations such as ethics, governance, energy efficiency, and disaster recovery. It unifies AI and networking into a single, practical framework rather than treating them as separate fields. The inclusion of curated resources, from books and blogs to courses and glossaries, supports ongoing learning beyond the text itself.
This book serves as a roadmap, guiding readers in designing intelligent, secure, and adaptive network ecosystems―essential for those aiming to lead the next generation of decentralized, resilient, and AI-driven digital infrastructure.
What you will learn:
Who this book is for:
This book serves network architects and engineers using AI-driven automation to solve scalability and complexity challenges. It guides AI researchers and data scientists applying advanced methods for smarter, more efficient networks. Security professionals will also find value in AI-driven threat detection, incident response, and collaborative defense.
Het Mehta is a Software Developer at Cisco, where he is at the forefront of revolutionizing network infrastructure through the strategic convergence of Software-Defined Networking (SDN), security automation, and Artificial Intelligence (AI). His work is dedicated to developing intelligent, software-defined systems that possess the autonomy and adaptability required to meet the demands of modern cloud, 5G, and edge computing environments.
Het’s expertise spans high-performance SD-WAN solutions, cloud integration, and kernel-level development. His unique background in embedded systems provides a critical perspective on the hardware-software synergy necessary for building resilient, high-performance network fabrics. He has contributed his research on intelligent networking to prestigious forums, including IEEE publications, and serves the academic community as a technical judge for major IEEE-affiliated international conferences in the domains of information networking and computer automation.
Pioneering the next generation of AI-driven networking, Het focuses on developing intelligent systems that enable proactive threat detection, autonomous configuration, and dynamic resource management. His professional vision is to create network ecosystems that not only respond to change but proactively anticipate it.
In this book, Het shares his deep expertise and actionable frameworks, guiding readers—from network engineers and security professionals to researchers and technology leaders—through the essential blueprint for designing, securing, and operating the intelligent, autonomous networks of tomorrow.
