5G Network Slicing Operator Survey 2022

Network slicing in the 5G architecture offers a mechanism to build and manage separate end-to-end logical networks tailored to specific requirements of different customer use cases. Network slice instances can be created, changed, and removed by management and orchestration functions.

The Heavy Reading 5G Network Slicing Operator Survey is intended to help industry participants better understand the status of this technology and provide insight into how operators are thinking about using slicing capabilities to offer commercial services. The survey was conducted in June and July 2022, and this analysis was written in August and September 2022.

This survey was sponsored by Amdocs, Ericsson, and Sandvine.
