Five ways Secure AI Factory supercharges the agentic future
AI workloads must execute where data is created-whether in factory machines, on retail shelves, across a power grid, or across service-provider networks. And therein lies potential value and innovative new use cases. For example, through the Cisco Secure AI Grid powered by NVIDIA, service providers can transform the telecom edge into an AI factory. This […]

Quantum Networking Beyond the Lab
The greatest networking challenges are not solved in pristine labs—they are solved in the real, messy world. Actual operating conditions, with all their noise and unpredictability, are the ultimate test for any new technology aiming for practical use. Recently, we took a monumental step in proving the viability of quantum networking by moving it out of the controlled environment and onto standard fiber that runs alongside other telecom traffic beneath […]

Rebuilding The Foundation: Why AI Infrastructure Needs To Change
As AI workloads shift from experimental to mission-critical, unexpected challenges test the assumptions underlying our networks, storage architectures, and security models. After nearly two decades of observing infrastructure evolution, I believe this moment is fundamentally different. We are not optimizing existing paradigms; we are rebuilding them. The bandwidth wall and the rise of co-packaged optics Modern AI training clusters require significant bandwidth. Training advanced models may involve tens or hundreds […]
