As AI workloads explode across enterprises, networks designed for small, random, short-lived flows are being overwhelmed by the reality of modern AI traffic — massive, synchronized, long-lived flows that saturate links and expose the fragility of static architectures. Recent data shows that AI traffic is not just heavier, but fundamentally different: predominantly multicast or all-to-all, hypersensitive to latency, and able to turn traditional switch oversubscription and ECMP balancing into bottlenecks.

This panel will examine why the industry's traditional best-effort, entropy-dependent designs can't support AI's unforgiving performance needs. Expect real data on what happens when a single AI job eats your bandwidth for weeks — and the hidden costs when tail latency drags out training runs by 50% or more.

WWT expert: Neil Anderson, VP, Cloud, Infrastructure, and AI Solutions

This forward-looking panel examines the evolution of traditional operations centers into AI-driven Agentic Operations Centers (AOCs). Panelists (including NOC/SOC leaders and AI ops specialists) will share how AI is being used today for predictive alerting and automated remediation, and envision next-generation centers where intelligent agents perform most monitoring and troubleshooting tasks. Discussion will cover blending NOC and SOC workflows, training staff to supervise AI workflows, and establishing reliability when machines make split-second decisions. Emphasis is on how enterprises can implement controlled-autonomy: letting AI handle routine incidents while human experts guide policy and handle exceptions.

WWT expert: Kate Kuehn, Area Vice President of Global Cyber Advocacy 

Date/Time: October 23, 2025, 3:50 pm ET

The rise of autonomous, AI-driven networks introduces unprecedented opportunities—but also significant security risks, compliance challenges and governance complexities. In this critical panel, leading security experts and CISOs will discuss practical strategies to mitigate threats unique to Agentic AI deployments, from ensuring transparency and auditability in AI decision-making to implementing robust Zero Trust and continuous verification frameworks. Panelists will share best practices and actionable insights for maintaining rigorous oversight and governance in adaptive networks, ensuring enterprises can safely embrace the full potential of controlled autonomy.

At ONUG AI Networking Summit—Dallas 2025, held May 28-29, WWT didn't just show up; we showed what was possible.

From the main stage to our dedicated WWT Theater, our experts delivered bold perspectives and practical strategies for deploying AI across the enterprise. We were also honored to be named Best-in-Show Winner for IT Infrastructure for our AI Proving Ground—recognition that underscores our commitment to helping enterprises move from AI exploration to execution.
