Cisco and NVIDIA Expand Secure AI Factory Architecture

Cisco Systems, Inc. expanded its Secure AI Factory architecture in partnership with NVIDIA Corp. to meet growing demand for neocloud and sovereign cloud services. The full-stack architecture integrates rack-scale computing solutions designed to support a wide range of AI workloads, from edge inferencing to training models with trillions of parameters.

The technical framework combines Cisco Silicon One-based switches and NVIDIA Spectrum-X networking, unified by Cisco Nexus One. To further enhance the offering, Cisco will integrate liquid- and air-cooled systems from Supermicro starting in October 2026.

Cisco stated the expansion aims to help customers deploy infrastructure more rapidly while reducing risk and increasing data control.
