ThousandEyes is joining forces with the Cisco Catalyst 9000 family of switches to bring Internet and Cloud Intelligence to tens of thousands of organizations around the world, enabling them to see and manage networks and applications that they rely on but do not directly own or control. By bundling ThousandEyes with its most widely deployed switches for campus and branch environments, Cisco is solving a critical visibility gap for enterprises, who are increasingly leveraging cloud, Internet and SaaS to deliver digital services to its employees and internal systems.
