According to Rajesh Shetty<\/a>, Cisco’s Managing Director - Enterprise Sales, the response to the intent-based networking front in India is phenomenal.
“Some of the largest networks that we have deployed are for ITeS<\/a> customers because they operate in an Odyssey environment, where segmentation is easier and that’s where we started the initial orders, far faster than international customers also,” Shetty told ETCIO.com
In his view, segmentation is one of the most important aspects of this new software offering besides security and visibility that is driving its adoption in the FSI<\/a> (financial services industry<\/a>) and Banking<\/a> along with manufacturing vertical.
“Adaptability of this has been tremendous and maturity curve is highest in terms of ITeS because of segmentation being well-set. Security and visibility are the reasons why a lot of FSI customers are leveraging it. Manufacturing companies have started deploying it so that they can take the next step with IoT (Internet of Things),” Shetty informed.
Cisco has around 150 customers in India so far and globally it’s over 4500. One of the Indian customers with the largest SDA (Software-Defined Architecture) is deploying 40 use-cases and many of them are very India specific. TCS<\/a>, Wipro, HCL, Cognizant, NSE, Tech Mahindra, Ashok Leyland, CGI and Publicis Groupe are among top Cisco customers.
Interestingly, TCS is the largest company to deploy Cisco’s intent-based networking, while Wipro has the credit to be the first organisation to implement this offering in the world.
“And we are leveraging our BU to create certain options which help in terms of deploying those use cases. So, I would say India is definitely leading the world in terms of intent-based networking,” he said. Further, Shetty expects more customers to move to this SDA based software platform over the next one year.
SDA clearly indicates how Cisco’s software shift is shaping up in its products and solutions in recent years and also reflecting in its software revenues. Cisco’s software income<\/a> globally stood around 33 percent, while it was 40 percent in India, according to the company.
But it all started some year ago with the Cisco Borderless Networks, also known as the Borderless Odyssey followed by the Cisco Digital Network Architecture (DNA), which has now become the core foundation of many new offerings including the intent-based networking.
In fact, Cisco had acquired Lancope for its network visibility and intelligence software StealthWatch and integrated with its own Security Group Tags (SGT) that enabled many of the key features of the intent-based networking including segmentation, automation, visibility, assurance, compliance, and security.
These functionalities and features are focused on addressing the IT complexities faced by most organisations and enterprises today. “Cisco’s network intuitive or the concept of intent-based networking is about how to make all these complex technologies very easy from the business outcome point of view,” Shetty explained.
Arguably, the industry in the past was believed to be guilty of offering new features and functionalities but with attached complexities. But today the customers want automation, assurance, compliance and simplicity in terms of business requirements so they can be more customer-centric, according to Shetty.
However, the issue is IT in most cases take a long time in trying to figure out ways to meet business requirements and that normally takes a long time. And that’s where Shetty backs the role of Cisco’s intent-based networking in simplifying and segmenting the IT infrastructure in organisations as per business needs driving its demand in India and elsewhere.
“What we are seeing with the Indian customers is that they are adopting this quite a lot. Today, we are leading as far as the number of customers who have gone down on SDA path,” Shetty informed.
Further, “We have the largest SDA customer in the world right now in India and in the process of being deployed. And also we have the largest numbers of customers,” he claimed.
Technically, Cisco’s intent-based networking helps to create a fabric across IT infrastructure right from datacentres, campuses and SD-WAN to wireless networks. And bring all of that into one seamless entity offering segmentation, compliance, security, network visibility and other key features to the customers.
For non-Cisco customers, it is coming up with the reference architecture for partners, so they can create middleware to leverage open APIs of some of the Cisco products through the DNA centre. This will allow integration to third-parties and extend the capabilities of intent-based networking capabilities to non-Cisco users.
“So the advantages are phenomenal for enterprise and that’s why we are finding it resonating extremely well,” Shetty commented.
Moreover, from the CIO organisation perspective, the offering is designed to take away many of the mundane and time-consuming manual tasks through automated processes. And in turn, help the IT department to manage and utilise resources for business-oriented and productive works.
“The simplicity, assurance, security and automation helps in terms of meeting the most important aspect of any CIO today is doing more with less,” Shetty noted.
Businesses today expect CIOs to be more active on the business front, according to Shetty CIOs need information visibility so that they can provide segmentation with more services or customised offerings by monetising different information like the way Google or Facebook is able to do.
Overall, businesses can leverage those benefits and accordingly can allocate better services to different customers and building customer intimacy.
“And I would say the intent-based networking is still evolving. It’s just a year old multi-phase journey, but over the period of time it will create a massive differentiation in the market,” Shetty concluded.

根据Rajesh谢蒂,思科公司的常务董事——企业销售,应对intent-based网络前在印度是非凡的。
“一些最大的网络部署的可客户,因为他们在一个漫游环境,细分更容易,这就是我们最初的订单开始,也远远快于国际客户,”Shetty告诉ETCIO.com
在他看来,分割是最重要的一个方面,这个新软件除了提供安全驾驶的采用和可见性投资策略基金会(金融服务行业),银行随着制造业的垂直。
”这是极大的适应性和成熟度曲线是最高的工艺,因为细分结构牢固的。安全性和可见性的原因很多FSI客户利用它。制造企业已经开始部署它,这样他们就可以下一步物联网(物联网),“Shetty通知。
思科迄今约150客户在印度和全球超过4500。的一个印度客户最大的SDA(软件定义架构)部署40用例和许多印度人非常具体。TCS,Wipro,盐酸,认识、分析了无Tech Mahindra, Ashok Leyland, CGI和Publicis Groupe思科的客户。
有趣的是,TCS是最大的公司部署思科intent-based网络,尽管Wipro信用是第一个组织来实现这个世界上提供。
布鲁里溃疡”,我们利用创建特定的部署选项,帮助这些用例。所以,我认为印度绝对是领先世界的intent-based网络,”他说。此外,Shetty希望更多的客户转移到这个SDA基础软件平台在未来一年。
SDA显然表明思科的软件转变成为近年来在其产品和解决方案,也反映在其软件收入。思科的软件收入站在全球约33%,而在印度是40%,据该公司。
但这一切开始一些年前思科无边界网络,也被称为无边界的奥德赛紧随其后的是思科数字网络架构(DNA),它现在已经成为许多新产品包括intent-based的核心基础网络。
事实上,思科已经获得Lancope为其网络的可见性和情报软件StealthWatch和结合自己的安全组标签(SGT)使许多intent-based网络的关键特性包括分割、自动化、可见性、保证、遵从性和安全性。
这些功能和特性的重点是解决今天大多数组织和企业所面临的复杂性。“思科网络直观或intent-based的概念网络是关于如何使所有这些复杂的技术很容易从业务的角度来看,结果“Shetty解释道。
可以说,该行业在过去被认为是提供新的特性和功能,但附加的复杂性。但今天,客户想要自动化,保证、遵从性和简单性方面的业务需求,这样他们就可以更以客户为中心,根据Shetty。
然而,问题是,在大多数情况下需要很长时间,试图找出方法来满足业务需求,通常需要很长时间。这就是Shetty支持思科intent-based网络的作用简化和分段IT基础设施的组织根据业务需求推动其在印度和其他地方的需求。
“我们看到与印度客户是采用这个很多。今天,我们主要到客户的数量已经在SDA路径,“Shetty通知。
进一步说,“我们有世界上最大的SDA客户现在在印度和部署的过程中。我们也有最大数量的客户,”他说。
从技术上说,思科的intent-based网络有助于创建一个织物在IT基础设施的数据中心,校园和SD-WAN无线网络。并将所有的成一个无缝的实体提供细分,合规、安全、网络的可见性和其他关键特性的客户。
为non-Cisco客户,提出合作伙伴的参考体系结构,所以他们可以创建中间件利用开放api的一些通过DNA中心思科产品。这将允许集成第三方和扩展的功能intent-based non-Cisco用户的网络功能。
所以企业的优势是显著的,这就是为什么我们发现它产生共鸣的非常好,”Shetty说。
此外,从CIO组织的角度来看,提供旨在带走许多平凡的和费时的手工任务通过自动化流程。反过来,帮助IT部门管理和利用资源,面向业务的和富有成效的工作。
“简单,保证安全,自动化方面的帮助任何CIO今天会议最重要的方面是用更少的钱做更多的事,”Shetty说。
今天企业期望cio更活跃在商业方面,根据Shetty cio需要信息的可见性,这样他们可以为分割提供更多的服务或定制产品货币化不同的信息像谷歌或Facebook能够做的。
总体而言,企业可以利用这些好处,因此可以更好的服务分配给不同的客户和建立客户亲密。
”,我想说intent-based网络仍然在发展。它只是一个岁的多阶段旅程,但在一段时间它会创建一个巨大的市场分化,”Shetty总结道。
