Enabling self-sustained IT infra using AI & private 5G driven SD-WAN

Businesses require self-sustained IT infrastructure to enable customised network performance, depending on the application needs for optimal efficiency and cost-effectiveness. AI-enabled SD-WAN can help achieve this by dynamically routing traffic through multiple connections like 4G LTE, broadband, or private 5G in real-time. It helps optimise performance for various applications and locations. This can come in handy when dealing with cloud-based services and remote users.

How does AI-enabled SD-WAN promote self-sustained IT infrastructure?

• Continuous monitoring: Network performance can be monitored in real-time, and routing adjustments can be made automatically based on the real-time data to optimise network efficiency.
• Application-aware routing: Critical business applications can be routed through the best available path for optimised performance for essential functions.
• Bandwidth management: The efficiency of the bandwidth can be managed according to application needs; it prevents bottlenecks and ensures seamless operations for various user access and locations.

Benefits of AI-driven SD-WAN for self-sustained IT infra
Integrating AI into SD-WAN allows you to enjoy intelligent automation and optimisation. Let us see how:

Moving from static to dynamic network: AI-enabled SD-WAN analyses and learns the network behaviour continuously. It prioritises critical applications like video conferencing during peak hours for seamless collaboration without interruption. The policies are automated and optimised for better performance.

Proactive security: With AI-enabled SD-WAN, your network is constantly monitored, securing it from cyber threats. With continuous monitoring, you can monitor the network activity for potential threats and suspicious patterns. The use of advanced machine learning algorithms can make this easy. It proactively helps to locate and neutralise the threats even before they interrupt your business.

Automating daily routine: Daily tasks like configuration, provisioning, and troubleshooting can give your team more time to focus on their core activities. They can focus on strategies to improve business growth. With AI-enabled SD-WAN, traffic routing, and path selection are done smoothly, which ensures less time is spent on network maintenance.

How do AI techniques improve SD-WAN?
Machine learning algorithms analyse vast network data to identify trends, anomalies, and patterns. The data is used to improve network performance and security and automate daily tasks. Natural Language Processing (NLP) is used to analyse network logs and feedback to identify threats and enhance network performance. Deep Learning models analyse complex network data to identify patterns that traditional models cannot detect.

AI-SD-WAN and Private 5G
The convergence of two technologies, 5G and AI, provides cost-effective solutions to perform real-time tasks, changing the way we live, work, and play. With higher performance and lower latency, private 5G networks and AI can give a new dimension to network-intensive applications.

How do AI-powered SD-WAN and Private 5G improve the industry’s network performance?
Healthcare: AI-powered SD-WAN and private 5G improve remote delivery, making healthcare self-sustainable even in remote locations. Real-time patient monitoring and remote surgeries are all possible with AI-powered SD-WAN. AI helps rapidly track potential issues and mitigate strategies by making your business self-sustaining. Personalised treatment can become a reality as AI analyses historical data, demography, medical records, and genetics.

Manufacturing: Automated production is no longer a dream with AI SD-WAN and Private 5G. It helps to optimise supply and improve worker safety, and defect detection is another major technological advancement that can save manufacturing loads of money. AI assists in monitoring and adjusting these manufacturing defects. With uninterrupted connectivity and the advantage of private 5G, developing a self-sustained manufacturing unit is possible.

Your answer across technologies
SD-WAN enables basic automation like error correction, path selection, etc. However, to enjoy maximum benefits in automation, AI must focus on business intent outcomes. AI-powered SD-WAN can ensure the network operates against policies irrespective of changes. IT teams can use new strategies and things to reach business outcomes and enhance user experience. If a particular configuration creates network issues, AI identifies the problem and moves to a better network, notifying the IT team.

Without AI, adding new applications and topologies would be cumbersome and time-consuming. Now, organisations can migrate to the cloud or take on new requirements without facing design issues. AI-powered SD-WAN with private 5G can reduce automation costs and make your business network self-sustained.
