Building and running agentic AI platforms on Kubernetes

Agentic AI isn't just a buzzword; it's a fundamental shift in software. These intelligent, goal-driven applications operate autonomously, presenting unprecedented challenges for infrastructure teams. The old ways of building and running apps simply won't scale. Join us for this technical deep dive where we'll explore how to harness the power of Kubernetes and modern platform engineering principles to create a scalable, resilient, and observable foundation for your next-generation intelligent applications.
