Session 2: Arista's Vision of Future Networking for Data Centre and AI
The future of Data Center is no longer split between general compute and AI training. Arista is leading the transition to the "AI Center"—a single, cohesive fabric that unifies front-end and back-end networks. By championing open, Ethernet-based architectures, we are proving that performance can scale to millions of GPU nodes without the complexity of legacy stacks.
Explore how the combination of Arista EOS and AI-driven autonomy is transforming the network into a self-healing, data-driven entity. Learn how these innovations in automation and data center architecture provide a common blueprint for the future of Cloud, AI, and Enterprise operations.

Session 3: The Borderless Enterprise: Arista's Unified Vision for Campus Networks
Experience a new era of enterprise networking where the campus is reimagined as a high-availability workspace. Arista’s Cognitive Campus extends the power of the AI Center to the entire enterprise—from Wi-Fi 7 access points to the industrial edge. By utilizing a single operating system and a unified "data lake," we’ve eliminated the complexity of traditional wireless controllers and manual security rules.
Discover how Arista’s "single-brain" philosophy—powered by Agentic AI (AVA) and Zero-Trust Identity (AGNI)—provides sub-second failover and seamless scale for over 500,000 clients. Learn how to achieve data-center-level reliability across your entire campus while radically simplifying your day-to-day operations.

Arista has evolved beyond the data center to become a Universal Cloud Networking vendor. By integrating VeloCloud’s industry leading SD-WAN with Arista’s high-density routing, we have created a "Global Transit Fabric" that spans from the service provider core to the furthest retail branch.
Discover how we’ve solved the "Branch Problem" using AI-driven operations and real-time path optimization to ensure your critical traffic—whether human or AI-driven—never drops a beat. Learn how a single management and security umbrella can now govern your entire network, ensuring that whether a packet moves between GPUs or from a laptop to the cloud, the experience remains seamless, secure, and "Cloud Grade."

Session 5: The Programmable Enterprise: Achieving Total Visibility and Autonomy with AVD & NetDL
Modern networking has outgrown manual, "box-by-box" management. This session explores how Arista achieves true network autonomy by treating your infrastructure as code. With this approach your company can move from complex manual configurations to a holistic, code-driven architecture where your "as-built" network always perfectly matches your "as-intended" design.
Learn how the synergy between Arista Validated Designs (AVD), the NetDL Data Lake, and CloudVision creates a continuous feedback loop. We will demonstrate how this "single source of truth" model enables predictive analytics and self-correction—identifying potential issues and "gray failures" before they ever lead to an outage.

Session 6: Unmasking the Unknown: Transforming the Network into a Pervasive Security Sensor
Traditional security often stops at the perimeter, leaving a massive "blind spot" for internal traffic and unmanaged devices. This session demonstrates how Arista eliminates these gaps by baking security directly into the network fabric and how to identify malicious intent—even within encrypted traffic—without the need for invasive decryption or complex endpoint agents.
Learn how AI-driven analysis (AVA) and Zero-Trust identity (AGNI) work together to act as a virtual security analyst, correlating billions of events into clear, actionable "Situational Awareness." We’ll explore how micro-segmentation can neutralize threats in real-time and how our "forensic look-back" capabilities allow you to investigate past threats with total historical clarity.
