Cisco Expands Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA through Supermicro Partnership

Cisco Systems is expanding its Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA through a partnership with Supermicro. This collaboration brings high-density, liquid- and air-cooled compute to Cisco's full-stack, secure AI infrastructure architecture for enterprises, neoclouds, and sovereign clouds.

The addition of Supermicro systems will enable customers to access rack-scale and dense GPU systems that are validated and sold as part of the broader Cisco AI infrastructure portfolio. This expansion allows customers to easily manage complex, high-density AI clusters alongside non-AI workloads.

Cisco is investing in a dedicated large-scale AI Lab to develop tools and test software to advance its CVIS (Cisco Validated Infrastructure Services) offering. This will help customers certify their infrastructure quickly and align it with reference architectures.
