#InternetForTheFuture

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, we hosted an exclusive event in San Francisco where we unveiled our vision and strategy to transform the engine that powers the Internet in front of the industry’s most important reporters and analysts. 

Today, I’m thrilled to announce Cisco Silicon One™- a ground-breaking, new silicon architecture that has elevated routing silicon’s performance to the same level as switching silicon’s performance – both from a bandwidth and power efficiency perspective – but we are also paving the way to faster performance gains in the near future.

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.

The power of the internet is about to change for good. Read how optics has a critical role in driving the architectural transitions.
