The network is literally the foundation of every business, and it has never been more critical to business success. Traditional networking models simply do not scale and perform to meet the expectations of the modren digital era. Businesses now need a new networking framework that is simplified and more flexible to use so they can improve their growth rate in revenue, customer retention, and profit – all while keeping their businesses secure.

Machine learning can be used to build complex models and algorithms within networks that are capable of generating forward looking trends. Analytical models inbuilt inside networks can produce reliable and repeatable decisions and can uncover hidden insights through learning from historical relationships embedded in data. It can also give networks the ability to learn without being programmed. 

Built for digital business and Internet of Things, intuitive networks promise to transform organizations struggling with legacy networks and looking for a stepping stone towards a much bigger picture, says Shadi Salama, Channel Leader, East Region, Cisco Middle East.

‘The Network. Intuitive.’ – What is Cisco’s Next Generation of Networking?

Back in June 2017, ‘The Network. Intuitive.’ was launched by Cisco, marking one of the significant breakthroughs in the history of enterprise networking. Cisco’s intuitive network is the result of years of research and development by the company to reinvent networking for an age where network engineers managing hundreds of devices today will be expected to manage 1 million by 2020.

"The new network, powered by Cisco Digital Network Architecture (Cisco DNA) and integrated with CDW products and services, gives you granular insight into your users, applications and devices — with the ability to learn and adapt to network changes."

Designed to be intuitive, the new network can recognize intent, mitigate threats through encryption, and learn over time, thus unlocking opportunities and enhancing business agility. Cisco has also introduced its intent-based network (IBN) system to the data center by adding assurance. Intent-based networking captures the business intent, in business language, and translates this intent into IT policies that can be applied and constantly monitored across the network.

Benefits of Intent-Based Networking

An intent-based approach to networking enables several benefits for business and IT leaders, which include improved business agility and operational efficiencies, better compliance and security, continuous IT and business alignment and reduced risk. We are excited about Cisco new intuitive networking platform, which is a superior end-to- end solution that’s unmatched in today’s market place. It brings analytics, automation, machine learning and AI together, so customers really do get an intuitive network.
