AI will run in many places. The enterprise fabric should remain one.

Earlier this year at Cisco Live, our team spent an evening talking with several NeoCloud providers alongside colleagues from Cisco’s AI Infrastructure organization. We expected the conversation to revolve around GPUs, AI factories, and inference capacity.

Instead, the same request kept surfacing. Their enterprise customers wanted an easier way to connect AI workloads running in these environments into their existing Cisco SD-WAN networks.

AI is distributing compute. It shouldn’t fragment the enterprise.

AI will not have one natural home

The first wave of cloud computing concentrated a large share of enterprise workloads into a relatively small number of hyperscalers. Enterprise…
