The document discusses how SD-WAN is becoming an orchestration game for service providers. Enterprises are increasingly seeking secure, agile networks to connect offices and mobile workers across multiple clouds. This has led to growing demand for managed SD-WAN services from service providers, who need orchestration to handle complexity and assure quality of service across multiple vendors. Orchestration is key to automating service provisioning and monitoring performance across connectivity, security, mobility and multi-cloud services. The document provides an example of how Ericsson's Dynamic Orchestration solution helped Verizon create new virtual network services.

WhatisSD-WAN?
— Software-Defined networking in a Wide Area
Network (SD-WAN) simplifies the
management and operation by decoupling the
networking hardware from its control
mechanism.
— Additionally, service providers can offer value-
added services, mobility and enterprise
applications as-a-service.
