S12|E4 Revolutionizing Network Design through Cisco Agile Services Networking

Cisco Champion Radio

In this episode of Cisco Champion Radio, we dive into Cisco's groundbreaking efforts to simplify network architecture and streamline the future of networking. The discussion focuses on the evolution of network design, from the collapse of transponders into routers in routed optical networking to the benefits of adopting coherent optics and segment routing. We explore how Cisco's Crosswork automation solutions are driving efficiency in network management with features like multi-vendor support and automation for inventory, service provisioning, and assurance. Cisco's revolutionary Silicon One is also highlighted, showcasing its ability to reduce cost, footprint, and chip variants while enabling seamless integration of new functionality across networks. In addition, we look at the platform Cisco offers for hosting apps on iOS XR devices, including advanced security features like Edge Protect for DDoS mitigation, and how AI-driven traffic decisions are shaping the future of network performance.
