There’s certain requirements like low latency and other features if you are hosting AI workloads on prem. Nexus would be it. Campus can be used for the access of AI apps, but those workloads themselves are surrounded by Nexus.

Firewalls have evolved over the years, but it has felt like a generation since the industry started using "Next Gen FW". Hybrid Mesh Firewall is what orgs are looking at now. Let’s focus on one piece of it, which is the firewall. youtu.be/-jtenKwmYG8?...

As organizations continue to deploy wireless solutions, they can’t forget about the wired side. Security is still needed on those switch ports and you should know what devices are connected. Cisco ISE can help with the visibility and control for wired devices as well. youtu.be/GlA_xW1jDdQ?...
