It’s easy to get typecast in the tech industry. Flagship products and services often become the focal point for how we know and relate to companies and brands. Intel is known for processors, but a closer look at both the company’s website and google search results quickly proves otherwise. The same goes for Microsoft, Oracle and many others.
Cisco Systems is known for its gold standard networking hardware. When people think of Cisco, they tend to think of routers and switches. However, the company is much more than that. Cisco is also a software company.
Cisco owns DevNet, a developer community led by the one of the tech industry’s brightest and most inspiring women, Cisco VP Susie Wee. She also serves as DevNet’s CTO. At Cisco’s DevNet Create Conference in San Francisco, Wee and her colleagues produced Cisco’s first IoT and cloud developer conference where they unveiled their incredible developer ecosystem that uses the Cisco network, and a broad suite of products including applications, SDKs and APIs, as a platform to rapidly create software applications for any number of purposes. Wee and her team, including her director of developer experience, Amanda Whaley, another one of the tech industry’s leading women, have augmented the DevNet environment’s applications and APIs with learning and testing sandboxes where developers can interact, gain and refine their skills, and test the products they produce.
