Summary

Cisco Systems, Inc.'s learning and certification division has experienced significant improvements in collaboration and production speed after adopting the GitLab DevSecOps Platform, as discussed by principal engineer Hank Preston during GitLab's DevSecOps World Tour in Chicago. This transition has streamlined their toolchain, enhanced version control, and established a single source of truth, thus reducing the complexity of managing multiple tools and increasing accountability within the team. Preston emphasized the importance of having an integrated platform to manage source and version controls more effectively and discussed the implications of artificial intelligence (AI) in software development, including concerns about intellectual property and the potential impact on how new developers learn coding skills. Despite the apprehensions about AI, Cisco is considering its use under strict standards and addressing intellectual property issues, although they currently do not allow AI-generated code in their development processes. The platform used by Cisco also supports their digital learning offerings, which provide employees with access to training resources and certifications like CCNA and CCIE.
