Network slicing
Abstract
Traditional networks and their one-size-fits-all approach needs to be adapted so that the expected large number of network deployment use cases, many different subscriber types with diverse and sometimes contradictory requirements, and varying application usage can be supported. So, instead of using a single monolithic network serving multiple purposes, technology advancements such as Virtualization and SDN allows us to build logical networks on top of a common and shared infrastructure layer. These logical networks are then called Network Slices.
