Editor’s Note: Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSCO)
John Chambers says the profits from Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSCO)’ new strategy are still one to three years away. The strategy, however, is already becoming more clear: Big Data will only work if it’s delivered through the network, and that could go hand-in-hand with consolidation among companies that specialize in data analysis and networking or traditional computing. “You can’t ship the information from 50 billion devices all the way up the line,” said Mr. Chambers, Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSCO)’s chief executive, in an interview last week. That means that increasingly sophisticated computing has to be built into networking devices.
