In every Cisco Live, when you are waiting for the queue to raise the badge when you see that the engineer – one who builds a new tool that has changed your workflow whose name you cannot remember – standing next to you. Or you will see this customer, do not misunderstand your suit and realize that they are going to win a project for a project that revolutionized their industry. Now you may notice the first time and you look confused even enthusiastic. The moment always gets to me! Suddenly it will hit you; You are on one of the biggest technological shows and learn a lot of great things.
If you are Misso Cisco Live Amsterdam, do not expect to tell this feeling with your words. After all, I’m an engineer, not a poet! What I can do is share what we have learned as engineers this year.
Much thanks to engineers Cisco – Snezana, Piotr and Aleksandra – for sharing their considerations. Special thanks to Andrei, our guest writer who shared his own experience as Cisco Live Wait through Cisco Insider.
Services as a code is a change in network management

Among the many good demonstrations in the world of solutions were the Refcent Cisco service as a code. This is a network management trailer, here’s the reason:
Cisco as Code Framework contains an automatic deployment pipe that streamlines the entire network configuration process. This begins by declaring the desired network infrastructure status and integrate automation engines such as Ansible and Terraform, by performing in CI/CD pipes. This piping performs preliminary checks, configurations and verifies after a change to ensure accurate implementation. A set of automated test cases using the robot frames runs inside the pipeline to verify that the configuration is in line with the declared data model. Furthermore, services as a code use digitized wisdom and learning Cisco from thousands of implementations. This learning is placed in automated inspections to prevent errors and ensure that changes are devoted to established proven procedures.
If it’s not on your radar, it should be!
Security is an architectural game; Integrated and ubiquitous

Cisco Live should be your reminder that the old approach “one product provides everything” that is no longer usable. In today’s world, cyber security should be considered an architecture that includes from the end points to the network, cloud infrastructure to applications. Especially with the AI in the game should be a de facto approach of zero credible architecture of cyber security. Any large IT museum of this integrated approach with multiple safety capabilities mounted across different layers and operated with automation to remain safe.
This year, Cisco announced exciting innovations, included AI defense, and shared knowledge of the next generation of security technologies that Cisco Secure Access and Cisco Hypershield.
If you are investigating how to ensure zero confidence, read the story of this year’s CX Customer Hero of the Year Award: Paris 2024 Olympics & Paralympics.
TAC sometimes has – and people notice it

It should not be any surprise that the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC), laboratories and experts this year were again busy this year. Cisco Live offers the opportunity to take advantage of TAC unmatched knowledge. Customers will get personal consultations in the face to help them with a portfolio of 2,700 Cisco products that we cover. This year’s heavy hitters were Cisco Secure Firewall, Solution of Firewall for all business size and Radkit,, A set of tools ready for use and python allowing interactive modules to connect to remote terminals, web or desktop computers.
Through breakouts and technical sessions, we offered deep dives to practical applications and emphasized proven procedures for deploying, configuration and management. In addition, laboratories have provided a practical experience, allowing participants to communicate directly with technology and strengthen theoretical knowledge with practical application.
Cisco Customer experience has AI strategies in the real world, not just futurism

This year’s central scene – Acceleration of strategies of modernization and implementation of infrastructure for AI – was the peak of Cisco Live. It has been opened on how Cisco helps businesses to accept AI as a co -founder while quickly modernizing his IT infrastructure. The knowledge was practical and action; It was just about futuristic ideas, but about the real world strategies that can be implemented today to have a tangible impact.
When I saw AI transform the modernization of infrastructure into a strategic advantage, I was felt enthusiastic about the possibilities and confidence in Cisco leadership in this space. I recommend watching the Adele Recording or Reading Blog.
Learning Beyond Cisco Live
The last day of Cisco Live is always bitter. While the world of the solution is empty, some of us are still in laboratories, they make vanilla installations NAZANIX, mention clusters and deploy virtual machines. Friday is almost a poetic reminder that learning will not stop. We write about our “Eureka” moments throughout the year.
