Software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) is an application-aware service that intelligently routes traffic in real time based on established business policies, along with network quality and availability. SD-WAN is used to connect multiple locations in a network to each other, to a data center, to applications and data in the cloud, or to SaaS platforms. Leveraging multiple, cost-effective access types at each location in an active-active configuration, an SD-WAN network routes application traffic over the best-performing network elements in real time and ensures automated failover for resiliency.

Emerging data center models are based on flexibility and non-disruptive, on-demand scalability. Infrastructure must not only support these capabilities, but be able itself to provide these same benefits and capabilities. F5 ScaleN is a breakthrough in high availability and scalability, offering the robust capabilities required to enable multi-tenant solutions, elastic applications, and infrastructure for any environment.

Technology-driven organizations have the lead in embracing new technology trends for their digital transformation initiatives. The COVID-19 pandemic introduced unprecedented challenges in terms of disrupted operations, changed delivery models, and the urgent need to support remote work for enterprises in all industries. Technology companies were best able to adjust to the new circumstances, since most were already well into their digital transformation journey. The pandemic further emphasized the need to accelerate digital maturity and align IT investments with changing business needs. Organizations are thus prioritizing solutions that enable IT resource optimization; operational efficiency and customer experience improvement; as well as support an increasingly distributed workforce.

The evolution and large-scale deployment of fifth generation “5G” wireless networks over the next few years will require complementary 5G services by offering ubiquitous and reliable coverage across numerous geographies. Terrestrial networks are currently focusing on delivery of 5G services to areas already being served by existing cellular technologies, but the unique capabilities of non-terrestrial networks can help expand the reach of 5G technology in the realization of new use cases.

This document focuses primarily on 3GPP Rel-18 - the inaugural release of 5G-Advanced. Initial work on Rel-18 in 3GPP started in 2022 (just before the finalisation of Rel-17), targeting commercialisation from 2024 onwards. As it evolves, 5G-Advanced will play an important role bridging from 5G to 6G with new features previously not standardised in 3GPP

As demand for goods peaks, supply chain instability and labor shortage are forcing manufacturers to become more efficient and find new ways to maximize productivity. Manufacturers are accelerating their path to digitalization or Industry 4.0, to improve automation and be more competitive. Additionally, with the digitalization of their operations, manufacturing companies are increasingly moving their applications to the cloud for more agility and to enable their employees to work-from-anywhere. The number of IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) devices is skyrocketing, while IT and OT (operational technology) networks are converging, raising concerns about cybersecurity risks.
