Technologies for building the Internet of the future are presented by Cisco

Cisco has revealed the details of a technology strategy aimed at building a new Internet - not subject to today's limits on performance, efficiency and power consumption. The long-term strategy of Cisco, which determines the future of network technologies for the coming decades, today opens up the possibility for developers to create applications and services that were previously impossible to imagine.

Among the innovations presented by Cisco is the unique Cisco Silicon OneTM network chip, based on it the line of the most powerful carrier-grade routers of the Cisco 8000 series, as well as new procurement options for Cisco solutions that allow customers to consume technology in a disaggregated approach.

“Innovation requires focused investments, a great team of professionals and a corporate culture that encourages creativity,” said Chuck Robbins, Chairman and CEO of Cisco. - We strive to transform our industry and create a new Internet for the 5G era. Our latest solutions in the field of microelectronics, optical technologies and software are the result of many years of work on innovations that will help our customers to maintain leadership and offer customers and end users new breakthrough applications and services for decades. ”

In the next decade, digital transformation will involve new technologies such as virtual and augmented reality, 16K streaming video, artificial intelligence, 5G, quantum computing, adaptive and predictive cybersecurity, an intelligent Internet of things, plus others that have not yet been invented. These next-generation applications will require such a complex platform that today's Internet infrastructure is simply incapable of supporting.

Over the past five years, Cisco has shaped the technology strategy for building the Internet that customers will need to successfully grow their business in the new digital world. This strategy is aimed at solving the most difficult problems that will arise when the tension in the existing infrastructure under the influence of digital transformation reaches its limit. Our goal is to create a new generation of Internet infrastructure where Cisco’s new silicon architecture will merge with the next generation of optical technology. Cisco’s strategy will change the economic foundation for building the Internet to support the digital applications of the future and enable customers to deploy their business in simpler and more economical networks.

Cisco's strategy is based on development and investment in three main areas: microprocessors, optical technology and software.
