Cisco Systems, Inc. (CSCO), an American multinational technology conglomerate, announced on Tuesday that it is expanding its Secure AI Factory architecture with NVIDIA Corp. (NVDA), adding rack-scale computing solutions through a partnership with Supermicro to meet surging neocloud and sovereign cloud demand.
The full-stack architecture, compliant with NVIDIA Cloud Partner or NCP reference standards, is designed to run massive AI workloads from trillion-parameter training models to edge inferencing.
Cisco said the expansion will help customers deploy infrastructure faster, reduce risk and maintain greater control over data.
Cisco will begin offering Supermicro liquid- and air-cooled systems as part of the Secure AI Factory in October 2026.
The expansion includes Cisco Silicon One-based switches and NVIDIA Spectrum-X networking, unified by Cisco Nexus One, delivering a fully validated rack-scale architecture.
On the Nasdaq, shares of Cisco are currently gaining 1.78 percent, changing hands at $112.19.
NVIDIA shares are gaining 1.07 percent to $210.71 on the Nasdaq.
