Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Overview

Every IT leader is facing a new reality: the business no longer operates within four walls. Applications live across multiple clouds, users connect from anywhere—home, branch, or on the road—and increasingly, AI agents are joining as a new class of users. On top of that, data is spread globally but must comply with strict regional sovereignty requirements. The network now has to serve a business that is everywhere, all at once.

The rise of AI workloads and Agentic AI is the forcing function accelerating this shift. A single AI request triggers multi-hop workflows that span multiple models, data lakes, and clouds. Each hop across these fragmented environments compounds latency and creates visibility gaps. In this distributed reality, you need more than just connectivity; you need an adaptive fabric that eliminates friction and scales with intelligent workloads.

Cisco Multicloud Fabric accelerates AI adoption by simplifying multicloud networking. It delivers a unified, secure global fabric overlay that connects sites directly to clouds and cloud to cloud, providing the intelligent control plane needed to optimize complex AI workflows across different public cloud including AWS, Azure, GCP, and hybrid environments.

This consumption-based platform replaces centralized cloud connectivity architectures with a distributed connectivity layer—delivering Zero Trust routing, integrated firewall service chaining, and embedded ThousandEyes visibility to help ensure your infrastructure is as responsive and scalable as the users and AI agents it serves.
