Cisco Introduces Model Foundry for Specialized AI Models
Cisco launched Model Foundry, a service that lets partners use and customize specialized AI models for networking, security, and infrastructure tasks.

Cisco has launched Model Foundry, a new offering that provides partners with specialized AI models for networking, security, and infrastructure operations. The service includes both model serving and fine-tuning options, allowing organizations to adapt the models to their specific operational environments.
The move reflects a broader channel strategy where vendors are packaging domain expertise directly into models that sit closer to daily workflows. Rather than relying on general-purpose AI, partners can now access models built specifically for the technical demands of infrastructure management.
