Our Cisco Routed Optical Networking solution transforms the economics of the Internet for the Future, where converged solutions integrate optics into any router or switch.

Connectivity is critical to create a society and economy in which all citizens can participate and thrive, so Cisco hosted a virtual roundtable with leading providers of connectivity, social networking, and telehealth services. 

At the end of January, we hosted the annual ‘Cisco Live Europe’ in Barcelona where customers and partners from around the world got to see the latest launches and innovations Cisco has to offer including the biggest launch of them all: ‘The Future for the Internet’. Read on to find out my thoughts of the week and how the technology is proving wrong all those who said, "that will never catch on."

The key to making any network redesign effective is doing it in a way that tackles the bandwith problem while changing the economics of building and operating networks at the same time.

Today is the moment when we enter a new phase of the Internet. Cisco revealed breakthrough innovations so significant and expansive, they will change the economics of the Internet for the next generation.

Thanks to our continued collaboration with Microsoft and the SONiC community, today we are announcing SONiC/SAI support on our brand-new routing platforms, the Cisco 8000 Series. This represents the first truly integrated approach to supporting SONiC on both fixed and modular routers.
