Day 4 was the final day of our first ever Cisco Live! We had a great show, with many great conversations and new connections.

I'm always fascinated by what causes a business trend to emerge, grow and sometimes expand to actually redefining the industry as a whole.

Tomorrow's data centers can't be built with yesterday's cross-connect. The new generation of software-controlled hardware enables a dynamic layer 1.
