Developing Achievable SLAs for 5G Private Networks

The global rollout of 5G, growing availability of edge computing, and enhanced automation offers enterprises of all sizes, government, academic institutions, and more, the prospect of unprecedented agility and control through Private Networks. The ability to tailor the network to specific application environments offers a compelling value proposition. However, the many technologies (e.g., 5G, 4G/LTE, Wi-Fi, etc.), deployment models, commercial models, and vendors, necessitate a rethinking of Service-Level Management and the testing strategies required to achieve those new capabilities. Enterprises must enforce not only performance KPIs, but availability and security as well.
