The bandwidth of a traditional transport network is shared by multiple services. It is difficult to avoid service traffic conflicts and ensure the latency of sensitive services. FlexE is an interface technology used to implement service isolation and network slicing on transport networks. In March 2016, the Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF) officially released the first-generation FlexE standard that supports a 100 Gbit/s rate. This is defined as an intermediate layer between Ethernet layer 2 and layer 1. The standard aims to provide on-demand bandwidth on user-side interfaces and isolate interfaces to reduce latency, as shown in Figure 4.36.

Because of such circumstances, the on-demand warehousing platform has emerged as a new alternative (Hahn 2020). In real cases, the platform FLEXE provides service for on-demand warehousing in the global market (Hass 2019). This platform connects warehouse providers who have excess space with e-commerce retailers who require empty space for the short term (Forger 2018). We present the three advantages of utilising an on-demand warehousing system (ODWS) as follows:
