Cisco is expanding its Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA to address the shift toward agentic AI and inference-heavy workloads. Key announcements include support for NVIDIA Spectrum-6 silicon on new N9100 switches, hardware-accelerated security via Hybrid Mesh Firewall integration with NVIDIA BlueField DPUs, edge AI support for enterprise and service provider use cases using NVIDIA RTX Pro Blackwell GPUs on Cisco UCS, Red Hat AI Factory software integration, and new Cisco Validated Designs for AI model training on FlashStack, FlexPod, and VAST Data. The overarching goal is a unified, pre-validated architecture that embeds security, observability, and governance across on-premises, edge, and cloud deployments.
