Cisco Expands Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA and Supermicro

Cisco Systems has expanded its Secure AI Factory architecture in partnership with NVIDIA and Supermicro to meet growing demands for rack-scale AI computing power. The new solution combines Cisco's full-stack approach with Supermicro's high-density server systems, offering a validated and secure infrastructure for enterprises, neoclouds, and sovereign clouds.

The addition of Supermicro liquid- and air-cooled systems allows customers to deploy rack-to-fabric liquid cooling, featuring Cisco liquid-cooled AI networking systems alongside Supermicro's liquid-cooled servers. This unlocks trillion-parameter training and high-throughput inference use cases with platforms including NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 and NVIDIA HGX Rubin NVL8.

Cisco President and Chief Product Officer Jeetu Patel said: 'We are at the beginning of one of the largest datacenter buildouts in history.' Every organization is racing to scale AI, but speed only counts if it comes with control of data, managed token costs, and real ROI. It starts with the right infrastructure: compute and networking, delivered as an integrated solution that's easy to deploy and secure from day one.'

The expanded Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA offers NVIDIA Cloud Partner (NCP) compliant solutions for neocloud and sovereign cloud customers. The full-stack architecture addresses the quickly growing demands of neocloud and sovereign cloud customers with a validated, integrated solution that is easy to deploy and secure.
