Enterprise and residential market dynamics, 5G, and the cloud are driving new applications—and creating new revenue opportunities for Communications Service Providers (CSPs). But these emerging use cases are also creating challenges: new traffic patterns, the move to virtualized and distributed applications, and the need for higher bandwidth and lower latency connectivity to end-users. IP/Optical convergence can play a key role in helping CSPs address these, but where does the path to architecture evolution begin? For every CSP, the journey is unique. With Ciena’s solutions, CSPs can start—and build—from their existing networks to evolve to a more streamlined, programmatic infrastructure that can serve as the foundation for innovation in the distributed services and content era.

The modern distributed workplace—including enterprises with thousands of branches and remote workers—requires updated approaches to cloud, networking, and security infrastructure. Cloud migration has opened the door to a huge increase in sophisticated applications, requiring networks that can carry traffic to an increasingly remote workforce. In turn, this creates a unique set of new requirements for security, including special capabilities to handle unpredictable locations of users, applications, and traffic flows.

Operators are picking up serious momentum when it comes to 5G roll outs. As of December 2021, 487 operators in 145 countries or territories had invested in 5G mobile or fixed wireless networks with 200 of these having launched some level of 5G network coverage. However, there is still a long road ahead when it comes to ensuring that 5G meets its potential and drives maximum ROI. A big stumbling block to overcome will be to ensure comprehensive coverage, in particular, in buildings.

The Aruba CX 10000 Distributed Services Switch with embedded AMD Pensando DPUs offers organizations an option to implement effective network segmentation by applying stateful firewall inspection policies at the switch port level, without having to route traffic to an external firewall for inspection. The Aruba CX 10000 is designed for securing East-West traffic and providing effective isolation for individual hosts or groups of hosts in the same rack even when those hosts are in the same L2 broadcast domain. This capability can be leveraged for minimizing the scope of Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) compliance as well as for meeting multiple PCI DSS requirements. The ability to implement segmentation at the port or host level ultimately reduces the cost and operational burden required to achieve and maintain PCI compliance, as well as validate compliance annually

The benefits 5G will bring to consumers, network equipment manufacturers (NEMs), and service providers (SPs) are both numerous and game-changing. 5G will radically improve the mobile broadband services that consumers enjoy and enable connectivity to billions of global devices to create a boom in the Internet of Things (IoT). 5G will provide robust support for new use cases we may scarcely imagine today. But there’s another critical challenge that deserves attention: Security—particularly the need for validation and testing. On a basic level, the adoption of 5G will depend on whether or not 5G services are demonstrably safe.
