Wipro Brings Enterprise Perspective to Cisco Cloud Control, Podcast

Wipro’s Uday Kiran discusses what Cisco’s new platform means for enterprise customers, global partners and the shift to unified, AI-ready operations

By Doug Green

“Cisco Cloud Control unifies all of these domains.”

In this Technology Reseller News podcast, recorded virtually during Cisco Live, Doug Green speaks with Uday Kiran of Wipro about Cisco Cloud Control and what the announcement means when viewed from the front lines of enterprise transformation.

For Wipro, the announcement represents a logical evolution in Cisco’s portfolio. Kiran says enterprise customers are often managing separate domains across networking, security and observability. Those domains have historically operated as “multiple islands,” creating complexity for IT teams that need visibility, speed and control across distributed environments.

Wipro brings a global systems integrator’s view to the conversation. The company serves enterprise customers in more than 64 countries, has more than 150,000 employees, works with more than 1,000 enterprise customers, and has partnered with Cisco for more than 30 years, according to Kiran.

That scale gives Wipro a practical view of what customers are asking for now. Enterprises are not simply looking for another dashboard or another tool. They are looking for ways to simplify operations, improve resilience, bring security and networking closer together, and make AI useful inside complex production environments.

Cisco Cloud Control is important because it points toward a more unified operational model. Instead of treating network, security and observability as separate disciplines, the platform is designed to bring those areas together.

For partners such as Wipro, that creates a larger opportunity than product deployment. It creates a consulting, integration and managed services opportunity around helping enterprises modernize operations, rationalize toolsets, and prepare for AI-enabled infrastructure.

The discussion also reflects a broader Cisco Live theme: AI is moving from concept to operations. As enterprises adopt agentic AI, infrastructure must become more observable, more secure and more automated. Wipro’s role is to help customers make that transition in real environments, where legacy systems, global operations and business continuity all matter.

In this podcast, Kiran offers a partner’s view of Cisco Cloud Control: not just what was announced, but why it matters to enterprise customers trying to turn fragmented IT operations into a more unified, intelligent and resilient operating model.
