Cisco Leads AI Networking Boom with SD-WAN Investment

Cisco Systems (NASDAQ:CSCO) is positioning itself for the AI networking boom. The company has been investing heavily in its software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) technology, which enables businesses to manage their networks more efficiently and securely.

This shift towards AI-powered networking is driven by increasing demand from enterprises for scalable, secure, and agile networks. According to Cisco's CEO, Chuck Robbins, 'the network is the foundation of everything we do.'

Cisco's SD-WAN technology uses artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms to optimize network performance, detect security threats, and predict potential issues.
