Cisco Live 2026: What the WWT Networking Team Learned in Las Vegas
Each year, Cisco Live brings together tens of thousands of networking professionals for a week of announcements, deep-dive sessions, and the kind of candid conversations that only happen in person. This year in Las Vegas, WWT sent a team of networking subject matter experts covering wireless, switching, SD-WAN, core routing, optical networking, and data center networking. What they brought back was a consistent signal: AI is no longer a strategy conversation, it is an infrastructure conversation, and the network is squarely at the center of it.
The Brownfield Reality: Why Juniper Is Gaining Momentum in Enterprise Data Center Networking
The reality in most enterprise data centers today is brownfield—not greenfield. Organizations are dealing with years of accumulated infrastructure, mixed vendor environments, operational complexity and limited staff, which is exactly why Juniper is gaining momentum in enterprise data center networking. Rather than forcing customers into a complete rip-and-replace approach, Juniper Apstra brings intent-based automation, continuous validation and multivendor support to existing environments, including Cisco, Arista and SONiC-based fabrics. That flexibility resonates with enterprises looking to modernize operations without disrupting production networks.
5 Reasons Now Is the Right Time for Juniper and Apstra Data Center Networking
Data center networking is undergoing a significant transformation driven by AI workloads, operational challenges and the need for flexible, efficient network management. HPE Juniper Apstra, combined with Mist AI and Marvis, offers a modern approach to address these evolving demands.
AI Infrastructure Is Changing—and the Network Is Now Part of the Performance Engine
AI infrastructure is shifting from disconnected components to integrated systems where compute, storage, software, and networking are optimized together for scalable performance. As AI moves into production, the data center network becomes a critical driver of efficiency, directly impacting GPU utilization, latency, and overall workload performance. Modern AI environments demand high east-west traffic handling, strong observability, resiliency and automation. For enterprises, networking is no longer just connectivity—it is foundational to delivering predictable AI outcomes, improving operational simplicity and maximizing the value of AI investments.
