CISCO LIVE -- Today, Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO) unveiled
Panoptica and Calisti, the latest additions to Cisco's suite of
API-first solutions and tools that result in faster application
development cycles, and provide businesses with modern application
connectivity, security, and observability that is critical for
exceptional digital experiences. The announcement was made at Cisco
Live, the premiere networking and security event.
Panoptica and Calisti underscore the company's strategy towards
managing and securing distributed application architectures, making
it possible for developers to programmatically discover, connect,
secure, and observe application programming interfaces (APIs),
applications, and workloads across the breadth of their cloud
journey from born-in-the-cloud use cases on a singular cloud, to
hybrid and multi-cloud architectures that span public, private,
SaaS, and edge components.
Cisco is making it possible for developers to not only provision
IT infrastructure, but also impact how software and software
services are delivered in the API and application development space
through a bottom-up adoption and product-led growth (PLG) model,
allowing them to try, buy, and scale their usage of tools and
solutions in the Cisco portfolio.
"Applications are no longer simply an extension of the brand or
an added channel to engage customers—today applications are the
business. Cisco is laying the groundwork for a more immersive
digital future by rethinking technology, architectures and even
operating models with cloud-native, API-first solutions that can be
leveraged across every area of business." said Liz Centoni, EVP, Chief Strategy Officer, and GM
of Applications.
APIs are behind the integration of systems, platforms and
applications, making it possible to create new business models and
streamline strategies for the delivery of products and services
across almost every digital channel. Panoptica and Calisti, which
are available for free, are part of a new class of open-source,
API-first solutions from Cisco.
- Panoptica—The Cisco Secure Application Cloud, Panoptica helps
developers and engineers provide cloud-native security from
application development to runtime. A single interface for
comprehensive container, serverless, API, service mesh, and
Kubernetes security, it scales across multiple clusters with an
agentless architecture, and integrates with CI/CD tools and
language frameworks across multiple clouds.
- Calisti—The Cisco Service Mesh Manager, Calisti is an
enterprise-ready Istio platform that simplifies connectivity,
lifecycle management, and security for microservices in complex,
multi-cloud environments. It helps application teams to focus on
application logic, and site reliability engineers (SREs) to control
and scale, de-risk upgrades, find root causes and monitor
service-level objectives (SLOs)
Cisco offers flexibility and choice for developers and software
engineers and is deepening its commitment to open source as a
powerful multiplier that accelerates innovation. The company
initiates ventures and directed research using open-source projects
including OpenTelemetry, OpenAPI, OpenInfra, Dex, Snort, and
Kafka.
