Cisco builds next-gen operational model for the hybrid cloud
BY MARK ALBERTSON
If there is a singular example that shows how the cloud is paving the way for a new operating model where virtually everything will be delivered as-a-service, consider the mobile banking app.
Applications for banking services were already gathering steam before COVID-19. After the pandemic closed many traditional in-person banking functions, the app became a key interface for customers.
There is a highly complex process behind the scenes driving the banking app, which must deliver a secure and accurate service for customers countless times per day. This requires hardware, software, tooling, machine intelligence, AI, a complicated set of partnerships and, above all, the application developer to pull it off. This is more than just a delicate balancing act; it is a true networking challenge.
“It’s cloud APIs, it’s on-prem, it’s branch, it’s SaaS, it’s mobile, and you need to bring all of these things together,” said Vijoy Pandey (pictured), vice president of engineering at Cisco Systems Inc. “This complexity is very real, and it’s across the wide-open internet. How do you make it consistent and easy for the developer? That is the networking problem.”
Pandey spoke with Dave Vellante, host of SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming video studio theCUBE. Vellante also spoke with Cisco’s Vijay Venugopal, senior director of product management for cloud compute; Kaustubh Das, senior VP and general manager of cloud and compute; Vikas Ratna, director of product management, UCS; James Leach, director of business development, UCS; and Thomas Scheibe, VP of product management, data center networking, in separate interviews.
The discussion, part of “Future Cloud: One event, a world of opportunities,” included a focus on removing friction from the work of enterprise developers, creating an app-centric infrastructure, recent updates for Cisco’s operational model, and an ongoing mission to enhance the hybrid cloud experience.
