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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
NEWS SUMMARY: Cisco expands its Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA to work not just in large data centers, but at local edge sites where real-time decisions can’t wait, from hospitals and warehouses to moving vehicles. Cisco is the premier partner to deliver partner-developed systems featuring NVIDIA Spectrum-X switch silicon paired with […]
We have reached an inflection point in AI: the rise of agentic systems that reason, decide, and act in real time. As organizations operationalize AI, the workload mix has shifted. Today, roughly 75-85% of AI workloads are inference rather than training, and the percentage continues to climb. Multi-agent systems are emerging rapidly, orchestrating real-time insights and automation across applications, data domains, and […]
The world stands at an inflection point where AI is redefining every aspect of business, society, and technology. Now, more than ever, network operators face the challenge of delivering unprecedented scale, reliability, and efficiency. At Cisco, our commitment to optical and optics innovation powers the backbone of AI, and cloud networking and enables our customers to meet these demands with confidence. AI is fueling exponential traffic growth, exposing […]
