SAN DIEGO: Networking hardware and security solutions provider Cisco Tuesday said that the company aims to build artificial intelligence (AI)-centric data centres and future-proof workplaces for enterprise customers. "We want to help you (enterprises) build AI-ready data centers. We want to help you future-proof your workplace. And we want to do that with an underlying layer of digital resilience," Chuck Robbins, chairman and chief executive, Cisco Systems said. Robbins was speaking at the Cisco Live 2025 annual conference. The US multinational said that it would transform data centres to power AI workloads anywhere. "We need seamless operations, observability, and security everywhere. We want to help you (enterprises) do this with technologies like Secure AI Factory that we have announced with Nvidia," Robbins said. Cisco has doubled down on partnership with Jensen Huang-headed Nvidia. The two companies enable enterprises to have access to a secure and scalable platform to fast-forward the creation and deployment of AI solutions to drive business value. Founded by Leonard Bosack and Sandy Lerner back in 1984, the company said that it could facilitate enterprise customers with "massive innovation" enabling them to modernise and reimagine data centres with solutions such as Expanded AI Pods, Unified Nexus Dashboard. "So we need a huge amount of security into the underlying network in order to be able to apply network services. We believe that we have a meaningful role to play."

The San Jose-based multinational said that Cisco is foundational to data centre build outs worldwide, and offering "critical infrastructure" catering to the AI era. Cisco has also partnered with OpenAI, and is working on its newly-released Codex software engineering agent that allows network engineers access tools for writing, testing and building code. Robbins further said that the fusion of security with the network would be critical for agentic AI. Last month, Cisco and G42 extended their strategic partnership to drive AI innovation across the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the United States.
