Once a year, the ACI User Group brings together experts from academia and industry to discuss the latest developments in modern data center networks. This year, the meeting took place June 23–24, 2026, at BMW in Dingolfing, Bavaria. A total of 40 participants from various sectors—including service providers, banks, automotive manufacturers, and the IT Center at RWTH Aachen University – exchanged views on current challenges and future developments in the operation of complex IT infrastructures.
The IT Center also plays an active role in shaping the User Group: Our colleague Benedikt Paffen, as a user representative in the Cisco environment, was involved early in the conceptual planning and further development of the event, contributing the users’ perspective.
Key topics included high-performance networks for AI applications, IPv6 integration, compliance management, monitoring, increasing security requirements, and the future of virtualization. The annual event provides a platform for exchanging experiences, evaluating new technologies, and jointly discussing solutions for the further development of modern data center environments.
