Google ADK adds integrations for GitHub, GitLab, Jira, MongoDB, and seven observability tools. AI agents can now work inside your DevOps toolchain.
2025 belongs to the AI startups. If you peek into the tech headlines, you’ll see companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Lovable, and Poolside AI dominating the conversation. Different names, different cities, different vibes, but somehow they all seem to be drinking from the same startup magic potion.They Solve High-Impact ProblemsAll these startups targeted areas with huge potential value. Some focus on general intelligence, others on AI safety, some on unlocking insights from massive datasets, and others on providing high-quality training data. What unites them is that the problems they solve are not only technically interesting but also commercially and socially…
As someone who’s worked with data for over 20 years and with many cloud platforms, my main focus has always been on helping teams streamline their development process. A key area of my expertise is mentoring engineers to adopt DevOps principles to optimise workflows, automate infrastructure provisioning, and deliver value to clients more efficiently. With Microsoft Fabric’s Git integration, this opens up a powerful chapter for teams looking to enhance their DevOps capabilities. But it’s not just about adding Git; it’s about leveraging Microsoft Fabric’s lifecycle management tools to bring real, measurable improvements in how we deliver software.Lifecycle Management in…
Autonomous infrastructure platforms replace manual provisioning, accelerating delivery, improving compliance and freeing platform teams to focus on strategic work.
