Networking technologies has advanced significantly in the past few years as demands for Ethernet as well as Wi FI have dramatically increased. In addition to supporting a variety of devices, Local Area Networks need to handle traffic generated by a variety of other sources, including streams of live video Network Attached storage (NAS) as well as VoIP (VoIP) cloud, virtualization as well as IoT gadgets and applications have created the need for more bandwidth.

In this article, we’ll examine the Networking technology trends that earned their place in the top 10 by 2022. The demand for high-speed internet cloud, edge computing and cloud models as well as the necessity for the transfer of information between servers has resulted in a shift to the demand for high-speed and low latency network technology.

1. 5G and Wi-Fi 6 technology

 5G is also known as the fifth generation of technology for cellular. It is distinguished by higher speed, lower latency and increased the flexibility of wireless services. It allows organizations to increase the efficiency of their workforces, expand automation, and supports new applications that require increased capacity for networks and increased speed data. 5G provides seamless roaming between cell phones and Wi-Fi access. 5G will solve the issue of multiple wireless devices being connected at the same time – and IoT causes more problems because it slows wireless network performance. Wi Fi 6 is available, but Wi Fi 6-capable devices like mobile phones and computers must adopt new standards.

2. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML)

Business and network issues that are complex can be solved in real-time with AI as well as ML. The application of user-related cases ranges from small citiesto manufacturing security, security, and networking. ML is able to make predictions from network data and AI can make intelligent decisions in response to those predictions. Advanced analytics in automation systems will allow self-operating networks.

3. Augmented and Virtual Reality

Augmented Reality (AR) as well as VR (VR) technologies enhance the applications and user experiences. AR is typically utilized on tablets and smartphones to display the design of interiors, which allows shop owners to show virtual versions of furniture.

4. Cloud computing

Cloud enables the faster transition from remote work. It also helps better organize remote workspaces and has helped to ensure business continuity in the event of a crisis. Maintaining consistent security and network policies across multiple cloud platforms using the management of multiple clouds.

5. DevOps

DevOps is a part of the development of software and IT. DevOps can improve the communication between engineers and designers of network services in order to make operational adjustments to the service.

6. Digital transformation

It allows the adoption of digital technology to improve business processes or services, through replacing traditional or manual processes. The process of digitization transforms into digital form that is stored, processed, and transferred through electronic devices as well as networks.

7. Intent-based network (IBN)

This method helps bridge the gap that exists between IT and business IT. The business intent is gathered and continuously aligned with the all aspects of the network from end-to-end to service levels for applications security policies, compliance, and operational procedures. Virtually separating IoT devices from other networks is one of the main tasks of Networking teams. It is the creation of secured zones referred to as Microsegments that allow IoT devices to work on the identical corporate networks, while reduce the risk to other networks.

8. Internet of Things (IoT)

IoT is about connecting the disconnected. A majority of objects aren’t connected but with IoT devices, they are getting the capability to connect and communicate with other devices and individuals, change how we work.

9. Data Security

 the integrity and reliability of the network is vital to the security. Secure network access is essential to ensure that the access to networks effectively and prevents the entry of various threats or spreading throughout the network

10. SD-WAN

SD-WAN is a method that uses software that manages Wide Area networks (WANs). This technology helps reduce operational expenses and increases the utilization of resources for multisite deployments. Administrators of networks using this technology are able to use bandwidth more efficiently and aid to improve the performance of critical business applications, without compromising data security or privacy.

SD concept of SD-WAN technologies divide both the plane of control and the plane for data. They also consolidate the control plane which multiple devices can be controlled. Control plane is an open service that is accessible to all the administrators within an organization or multi-tenancy environments.

SD-WAN supports on premises data centers, Software-as-a-service (SaaS) and public cloud infrastructure-as-a-service (laaS) applications to optimize their performance. SD-WAN provides security to all users and devices regardless of their physical location.
