AIEngine improves network traffic management by enabling programmable packet inspection and automation. According to AI+ Network documentation, AIEngine functions as an intelligent control layer that integrates analytics, policy enforcement, and automation into the data plane. By inspecting packets programmatically, AIEngine can identify traffic patterns, application types, and anomalies in real time.
This capability allows the network to automatically apply policies such as traffic prioritization, rate limiting, or rerouting without manual configuration. AIEngine leverages AI-driven insights to adapt network behavior dynamically based on live conditions, improving throughput, reducing congestion, and maintaining service quality.
While network slicing is specific to 5G architectures and security threat prevention focuses on application-layer protection, AIEngine’s core value lies intraffic-aware automationat the network level. It does not deploy ML models directly, but instead uses AI outputs to control forwarding behavior. AI+ Network materials emphasize AIEngine as a key enabler of intent-based and self-optimizing networks.
