One of the most exciting announcements from Cisco Live 2026 was Cisco Cloud Control.
After watching the keynote by Jeetu Patel and the live demonstration by DJ Sampath, I felt we may be entering a new era of IT operations powered by Agentic AI.
In this video, I share my key takeaways and explain why Cisco Cloud Control is much more than just another management platform.
Topics covered:
✅ What is Cisco Cloud Control?
✅ Why Agentic AI is the next evolution beyond Generative AI
✅ Natural Language Operations and AI-powered troubleshooting
✅ Topology intelligence and automated context building
✅ Key insights from Jeetu Patel's vision for the future of IT operations
✅ Why this matters for network engineers, architects, IT leaders, partners, and customers
One message that particularly resonated with me was:
"Simplicity without losing sophistication."
As AI continues to reshape networking, security, observability, and infrastructure management, platforms like Cisco Cloud Control offer a glimpse into how humans and AI agents may work together to operate increasingly complex environments.
