Cisco and OpenAI redefine enterprise engineering with Codex

OpenAI
Cisco is integrating OpenAI's Codex into its production workflows to automate complex enterprise engineering, significantly accelerating development and defect remediation.

Summary

Cisco has partnered with OpenAI to integrate Codex into its large-scale, enterprise-grade engineering workflows rather than treating it as a simple coding tool. By embedding Codex into production environments—such as C/C++-heavy codebases and multi-repository systems—Cisco has achieved major efficiency gains, including a 20% reduction in build times and a 10-15x increase in defect resolution speed. This collaboration has helped shape Codex into an agentic AI engineering teammate capable of handling complex tasks like framework migrations and security orchestration while adhering to strict governance and compliance requirements.
