In Part 2 of our Cisco 2025 special, we continue the conversation on digital resilience as business resilience, this time focusing on the hybrid cloud, modern data centres, and preparing for the future of AI-powered workloads.
You'll hear from:
- Rob Sims - Chief Technologist, CDW
- Joachim Mason - Managing Director, Partner Sales, Cisco UK & Ireland
- Scott Manson - Director of Cyber Security and Resilience
- Ged Fitton Leader - Cloud Infrastructure & Software Group (CISG)
Together, they break down:
-
Why the term AI-Ready Data Centre matters – and what “ready” actually means
-
The resurgence of hybrid cloud and why workload placement still matters in 2025
-
Why virtual machines aren’t going anywhere—yet—and how containers are changing the game
-
Cisco’s approach to simplification through silicon, partnerships (NVIDIA, Nutanix, etc.), and validated designs
-
How Cisco’s own silicon strategy gives customers choice, performance, and control
-
The importance of observability and security in every data strategy
-
Why “outcome-led” thinking is critical for building resilient infrastructure—especially when preparing for AI
Don’t miss Part 3, where we unpack digital resilience in detail—from threat response to observability and the future of secure, connected enterprise environments.
