AI agents are quickly moving from experiments to production‑critical components of modern applications. But while many teams know how to build agents, far fewer are confident they’re hosting them on the right foundation. Most organizations start by deploying agents the same way they deploy microservices—containers, functions, or app services. ...

In Part 1 of this blog series set the stage for why platform engineering is being reshaped by agentic AI. (read it here) Basically we outline how instead of humans translating intent through layers of CLIs, SDKs, and bespoke workflows, capable agents can interpret natural-language goals and turn them into safe, validated platform actions using w...

If you work in field engineering, you know the scenario. A customer is deploying AKS in a regulated environment. They hit an issue during node bootstrapping. They want to know exactly what happens when a node joins the cluster, which components run in which order, and whether the behaviour they're seeing is expected. The question sounds simple. T...

And the developers running Claude Code and GitHub Copilot CLI didn't notice... Status Page Says 'Operational.' Your Subagents Say Otherwise. If you're running autonomous agents in any serious capacity, you've experienced this: model provider outages aren't edge cases — they're part of the operating environment. Anthropic has had outages. ...

For the last decade, platform engineering has relied on explicit API interaction layers: CLIs, SDKs, pipelines, wrappers, and UI workflows that translate human intent into machine‑safe API calls. AI agents are now short‑circuiting much of that stack. By combining natural language understanding, reasoning, and direct access to API specifications and...

We are currently living through the "fragmentation phase" of the AI revolution. If you’re a developer, you know the drill: You have Claude Code open for reasoning. You have ChatGPT open for logic checks. Then you drop into your terminal to actually build the thing—manually copy-pasting context between three different windows. We call this...

How to read this article This article is a reflection based on hands-on experience and is written for engineers and technical leaders who are facing a new application modernization effort and want to build a realistic mental model before reaching for tools. If you are new to application modernization, I recommend reading the article end to end. T...

👋everyone! Shree here. I'm sure many of you have had a similar chat with someone you know. We often hesitate to celebrate our achievements because of social perceptions around self-promotion. I believe it’s time to challenge that mindset. Building a personal site is about owning your narrative and showcasing your work with pride. In this ...

Legacy modernization is one of the most frequently raised challenges customers approach us with. They want to eliminate technical debt and run applications cloud-native. Obviously, there are different levels of complexity in legacy modernization, but the most challenging cases remain mainframe languages like COBOL and PL/1. COBOL still powers mi...

Introduction You can now enjoy the same Codex experience in CLI or VS Code with Azure OpenAI support. We've contributed the following five pull requests to make this possible, giving you the familiar Codex functionality from ChatGPT while running securely on Azure: We are collaborating with OpenAI on additional updates and int...
