The promise of unlimited bandwidth and unrivalled speeds is set to make 5G synonymous with cellular connectivity in the coming years. 5G will make a huge impact redefining industries and expanding the potential of emerging technologies. These technologies leverage new speeds and almost nonexistent latency to enable breakthrough applications. Central to most of the capabilities touted for 5G is network slicing. Network slicing enables operators to abstract a common physical infrastructure which they can use to create virtualized networks customized to specific use cases.
