Delivering Application Analytics for an Application Fluent NetworkBenjamin Eggerstedt
Managing and designing an enterprise network is becoming more complex. Delivering real-time applications is a top priority for business managers today, while the number
of applications used in the enterprises is growing. Because of these next-generation applications, the level of performance required from the corporate network is far beyond the needs of the typical enterprise application in terms of throughput and latency. The existing business critical applications then require bandwidth with higher quality of service to run the business.
The volume of traffic on wired and wireless enterprise networks is rapidly increasing, adding to the tasks of the already burdened IT administrator. Mobility and virtualization add an unprecedented level of complexity, because the network is no longer statically provisioned with well-known workloads. Traditionally, the enterprise network has played a limited role in optimizing application delivery: It has simply transported
raw information from place to place without regard to the application’s individual requirements. In this environment, architects have designed the network with enough raw bandwidth to meet peak application delivery requirements. This approach — known as over-provisioning — has provided an adequate user experience, but it is clearly a costly model for network design. At the same time, the enterprise networking budget is also being stretched to handle the additional network requirements.
In a telecommunications network, a switch is a device that channels incoming data from any of multiple input ports to the specific output port that will take the data toward its intended destination.

SD WAN VS MPLS – Which is better for your Business?Phani Kumar
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) has long been the standard for wide area network before SD-WAN came along. While most professionals consider SD-WAN to be the latest and more effective in enterprise networking problems, the benefits of MPLS technology cannot be ignored. Choosing between these two will depend on your company’s priorities. This guide will explore the two technologies to help you choose the best for your business.
This presentation explains the importance of SD-WAN technology as part of the Enterprise digital transformation strategy. It goes over the first wave of SD-WAN in a single vendor deployment, with Do-it-yourself (DIY) as the preferred model. Then continues with the importance of orchestration in the second wave of SD-WAN deployments in a multi-vendor ecosystem, turning to SD-WAN Managed Services as the preferred model. It ends up with some examples of use cases and the Verizon customer case. More information on Ericsson Dynamic orchestration - http://m.eric.sn/6rsZ30psKLu
