Cisco Systems, Inc. closed the gap through new Splunk innovations, giving customers the ability to safely and cost-efficiently scale AI wherever their data already lives. This includes an expanded partnership with NVIDIA to bring Splunk AI to on-premises customers. Splunk AI features come to on-premises customers with Cisco AI POD for Splunk, the newest addition to Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA. New Tokenomics solution in Splunk Agent Observability tracks AI spending and coding agent usage in real time, tying adoption to business value. Splunk's latest security innovations give teams a faster, safer path to scaling the agentic security operations center. Splunk and AWS formalize a multi-year agreement to co-develop security solutions built to outpace AI-driven attacks. Self-managed Splunk AI, accelerated by NVIDIA. Cisco and NVIDIA are expanding their partnership to bring self-managed AI directly to Splunk Enterprise customers, across their own on-premises, private cloud, and air-gapped environments. Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA is the reference architecture that brings the full AI stack together, built from Cisco AI PODs. The newest of these configurations, Cisco AI POD for Splunk, brings Splunk AI to on-premises customers with new AI runtime software, Cisco infrastructure, NVIDIA accelerated computing, and Kubernetes-based architecture – pre-validated and optimized for Splunk AI workloads. Cisco AI POD for Splunk is available. For customers who have their own infrastructure, partners like bitsIO, Wipro, and World Wide Technology are ready on day one to help customers stand it up. Splunk AI Assistant (available) and Agent Launchpad (coming later this year) run on this layer. Together, they bring ad-hoc agentic investigations and custom agent building for a broad variety of use cases including the agentic SOC to teams that run Splunk in their own data centers. Customers can also self-host a selection of open and proprietary generative AI models for their Splunk Enterprise workloads, including the Cisco Deep Time Series Model, Google Gemma 4, and OpenAI GPT-OSS 20B, with NVIDIA Nemotron open models in the coming months. Teams can use the model best suited for the job without sending data outside their environment. New observability innovations give Cisco customers one full-stack view into how their AI agents are actually performing. Splunk Agent Observability, with its new Tokenomics capabilities, is closing that visibility gap and giving organizations a real-time view into agent performance and AI token spend. This enables teams to see exactly where and why AI costs accumulate before they become a budget problem. Splunk Agent Observability, announced initially as an on-premises offering, is available in Splunk Observability Cloud and in Cisco Cloud Control, extending visibility to customers working across the Cisco portfolio. It evaluates agent and model behavior, observes performance across the AI stack, and applies runtime guardrails that block inaccurate or unsafe actions, like hallucinations or leaking sensitive data. As part of Splunk Agent Observability, the new Tokenomics solution extends that visibility to spend – tracking and attributing token expenditure across AI agents and employees' use of coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor. It will also forecast consumption patterns to project where spend is headed before a billing period ends, using the Cisco Deep Time Series Model. These insights help organizations to operationalize a tokenomics framework and tie AI spend to business outcomes. The Observability Studio enables teams to ensure new applications are "born observable," measurable and production-ready from the start. The new Network Intelligence App brings Cisco network topology, device health, and events into Splunk, so network teams can trace an alert straight to the device behind it and the network around it. The new editions for Observability Cloud – Essentials and Premier – simplify how customers buy and expand observability across their business, with cost-effective log analytics to debug application and infrastructure problems. Splunk is advancing the agentic SOC by combining enterprise-wide telemetry with specialized AI agents powered by leading frontier and domain-specific models. New purpose-built agent capabilities expand the Splunk Agentic SOC Workforce and mirror how elite security operations teams work across detection engineering, proactive threat hunting, autonomous investigation, coordinated response, and policy governance. By correlating rich, full-stack machine data across network, cloud, application, and identity environments, these agents deliver deep reasoning and transparent, explainable verdicts that cut alert noise and accelerate mean time to remediate. New Exposure Analytics enhancements deliver on that with broader asset coverage, historical change tracking, and business-specific risk insights. Connecting exposure context to live security activity across Splunk, Cisco, and an extensive third-party ecosystem, so teams see their entire estate rather than one vendor's slice of it. Agents use that context to pinpoint what matters most and where risk is active. New capabilities in Splunk Enterprise Security Essentials bring agentic security operations and greater autonomy to far more security teams. Splunk Enterprise Security Premier adds deeper agentic autonomy and the full power of Splunk Enterprise Security. Splunk and AWS are expanding their long-standing relationship into joint product development through a multi-year agreement. The work advances the agentic SOC to match the speed of AI-driven attacks.

Apple has officially launched its first foldable smartphone, the iPhone Duo. Featuring a book-style inward-folding design, the device comes with a 7.6-inch inner display and a 5.4-inch cover display. TrendForce estimates that iPhone Duo shipments will reach approximately 5 million units in 2026, giving Apple a 24.8% share of the foldable smartphone market and making it the second-largest brand behind Samsung. The iPhone Duo's inner display module features a 10-layer stack of ultra-thin materials, combined with a nano-texture surface treatment to reduce reflections and make the crease less visually noticeable. The device also features a Grade 5 titanium frame and hinge cover. It weighs around 254g and measures approximately 5.2 mm thick when unfolded and 11.3 mm when folded. Apple has omitted a dedicated periscope telephoto camera to minimize thickness and conserve internal space. Instead, the 48 MP main camera provides 2x optical-quality zoom, while a side-mounted Touch ID sensor replaces Face ID. The iPhone Duo's design suggests that Apple is not simply pursuing a larger foldable display. The company is differentiating the device through crease reduction, long-term reliability, consistency between the inner and outer displays, and thinner integration of the display module with the overall device. Additionally, iOS 27 expands the foldable experience through enhanced Split View for two-app multitasking, continuity between the inner and outer displays, and interfaces optimized for different folding angles. For Apple, the iPhone Duo integrates Apple Intelligence and Siri AI to support natural-language interactions, personalized contextual understanding, and in-app actions. Deeper integration of AI and multitasking interfaces with the larger foldable display could transform the device from a hardware differentiator into a new interface for AI applications.

The initial solution will bring together HP ZGX Fury, based on the NVIDIA DGX Station platform, powered by NVIDIA GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Desktop Superchip, as the physical infrastructure for demanding local AI development and inference. Enterprise lifecycle management and support pathways are designed to improve consistency from developer environments to production deployment. HP ZGX Fury is now available to order. HP ZGX Fury is certified to run on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and available via the Red Hat Ecosystem Catalog. Customers will also be able to evaluate the planned solution in a sandboxed environment delivered on HP devices with Red Hat AI Factory with NVIDIA. Details on timing, locations, eligibility, supported configurations and access will be shared when available.
