Cisco DevNet is your hub for building the next generation of intelligent infrastructure with agentic AI. Discover how AI agents can call Cisco APIs, reason over network data, and take action on their own, with hands-on guides to Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, agent frameworks, and the SDKs that connect them to real Cisco platforms.
Go beyond scripts and playbooks with AI-driven network automation that can detect issues, recommend fixes, and run multi-step workflows across your environment. Learn how to apply shift left security to agentic systems, from guarding AI-generated code to setting guardrails on what autonomous agents are allowed to do. You’ll also find patterns, sample code, and best practices for enterprise application development where AI agents work alongside your teams.

Have fun with the SmoresKit v32.2 API. Doesn't do much now, but might give you ideas related to IoT - how to create something using micro-controllers and robotics, use heat sensors, stepper motors, etc.
Once developers feel comfortable with their code, Ops needs to think about how it will go into the production environment -- on-premises (private) or in the Cloud (public)?
The two day DevNet Create conference focused on topics and technologies of interest to application developers, cloud developers, and IT (DevOps) professionals
The key to good UX design is a deep understanding of the user persona that the application is intended for. Simplicity, ease of use, supportability and manageability can be competitive differentiators.
Using Python and Jinja2 to automate network configuration templates is a really useful way to simplify the repetitive tasks network engineers face on a daily basis.
We have created a simple game to demonstrate the power of Open Data. There is an emergency and a mission to save lives via My City Data Learning App.
