Abstract: This tutorial presents an architecture and methods for a/1-photonics networks-as-a-service in distributed Al data center infrastructures. We discuss server-based coherent transceiver architectures, remote transponder control, rapid end-to-end lightpath provisioning, digital longitudinal monitoring, and line-system calibration, demonstrating their feasibility through field validations.
