Fabrix.ai demonstrates production-grade agentic operations at Cisco Live

Artificial intelligence dominated headlines and keynotes at every event I’ve attended this year, including the recent Cisco Live 2026. Though the thirst for AI has been insatiable for a couple of years, customer feedback at the event showed that the era of AI curiosity has given way to AI urgency.

Information technology and business leaders are no longer satisfied with conversational chatbots or basic AI scribes that merely summarize meetings or draft text. They want systems that proactively identify and resolve problems across their massive, complex IT estates.

The industry is rapidly moving toward autonomous, agentic artificial intelligence — that is, systems that can observe, reason, plan and execute tasks across distributed environments without human intervention. Yet doing this at an enterprise scale is proving remarkably difficult.

Production-ready agentic AI is something startup Fabrix.ai has been developing for a couple of years. At Cisco Live, I stopped by the AI Village to get an update on the vendor’s progress. At the booth, Fabrix.ai demonstrated a multi-vendor, multi-agent platform designed specifically for enterprise operations that customers can run today.
