As I replicate on the unbelievable vitality and groundbreaking bulletins from Cisco Stay, one of many overarching themes continues to resonate deeply with me: Together with our clients and companions, Cisco is not simply speaking about AI Infrastructure, we’re actively constructing it.
We’re all seeing the world of labor quickly evolve. It’s changing into more and more distributed, powered by AI, and hyper-connected. This transformation, whereas thrilling, additionally brings unprecedented calls for on our networks and, by extension, on the extremely gifted IT groups who handle them. The sheer quantity of visitors development and the emergence of recent safety issues throughout campus, department, and industrial networks are challenges that require a essentially new method.
That’s precisely what we achieved at Cisco Stay. The improvements, buyer conversations, demos, and trainings we unveiled characterize a very vital leap ahead for our clients and your complete trade. We redefined the probabilities of community operations for this new period, prioritizing intelligence and ease … whereas remodeling the function of safe connectivity right into a foundational pillar for AI infrastructure within the office.
AgenticOps
Our imaginative and prescient for AgenticOps is to proactively assist you to handle and troubleshoot your networks, remodeling the best way you’re employed by putting AI on the very middle of your expertise.
On the coronary heart of AgenticOps lies a very exceptional innovation: the Cisco Deep Community Mannequin. This isn’t simply one other giant language mannequin; it’s an LLM purpose-built for the distinctive complexities of actual networks. Educated on Cisco’s a long time of unparalleled networking experience, our Deep Community Mannequin persistently outperforms general-purpose fashions, delivering higher than 20% increased precision and accuracy on networking duties, all whereas being leaner in dimension. This purpose-built intelligence is a game-changer.
AI Canvas
We additionally launched AI Canvas, a revolutionary new device that leverages the facility of the Cisco Deep Community Mannequin to immediately create customized dashboards and pull collectively information and visualizations on the fly. Think about the seamless collaboration this permits between NetOps, SecOps, and DevOps groups — a real unification of insights.
Subsequent Gen Networking Gadgets
To make sure our clients have the bodily infrastructure to assist this AI-driven future, we introduced a full portfolio of next-generation networking units particularly designed to satisfy the calls for of AI workloads. That is the most important refresh of our core networking units in at the least a decade, and I couldn’t be prouder of what our groups have completed.
Cisco’s Management
Why are we so enthusiastic about this new period? As a result of no different vendor can match the breadth of our capabilities throughout switching, routing, wi-fi, and Industrial IoT for campus, department, and industrial use instances. Our clients want safe community materials that join every part with increased bandwidth and decrease latency, addressing their wants for sophistication, scale, and ease. Cisco is the AI infrastructure firm that’s uniquely positioned to ship this.
Operational simplicity, particularly with AgenticOps, is paramount. Within the period of agentic AI, organizations might want to function their networks at machine scale, but with shut human-agent interplay. Improvements like AI Canvas and our new Cisco Cloud Management display how we’re uniquely able to correlating cross-domain information and making use of refined AI capabilities educated on data distinctive to Cisco. With Cisco Cloud Management, IT groups will have the ability to execute cross-product workflows, proactively determine and resolve points, and handle infrastructure in a unified approach. This stage of innovation is solely unmatched available in the market.
Moreover, we’re fusing safety immediately into the material of the community. Agentic AI represents probably the most vital safety challenges of our lifetime. Our bulletins, resembling integrating our new campus sensible switches into our hybrid mesh firewall, introducing Cisco Stay Shield to deal with vulnerabilities with out community downtime, and enhancing deep telemetry integration with Splunk, are important steps in addressing these challenges at machine-scale.
I’m extremely pleased with the groups working with our clients to redefine this area. We’re working with the pace of a startup and the dimensions of an market chief. It’s due to these groups that Cisco is and can stay the undisputed market share chief in each switching and wi-fi networking.
Unmatched Scale
Within the final two years Cisco has unified our {hardware} platforms, licensing, and assist, beginning with wi-fi and now extending to switching and routing. We’ve additionally unified cloud administration for all our new and current units, sustaining our dedication to giving clients selection in cloud, on-premise, and hybrid administration.
Our options are the core of campus and department networks worldwide, powering 85% of Fortune 500 corporations and serving each main trade. And, we join over 35 million community units to our administration platforms, and energy over 1 billion related purchasers.
This can be a new period for networking, and a major alternative for our clients, enabling them to navigate the complexities of constructing AI Infrastructure with confidence and unparalleled safety. The improvements showcased at Cisco Stay characterize a elementary leap ahead in how we take into consideration, construct, and function networks.
I’m extremely optimistic about what we are going to obtain collectively.
