Explore Managed Infrastructure That Lets AI Agents Work Without Limits
DigitalOcean's new Managed Agents give AI agents something they rarely get: a proper home. Announced in public preview, this service wraps each agent in an isolated microVM, governs its tool access, and adds serverless inference, all without forcing teams to build the infrastructure from scratch. It's a practical step toward production-ready autonomy. For a broader look at how engineering leaders are shaping systems for this agentic future, see our coverage of QCon San Francisco 2026.
Azure API Management shifts control plane from APIs to AI models and tools
Microsoft's dedicated AI Gateway tier for Azure API Management is a thoughtful step forward, shifting the control plane from APIs to models, MCP servers, and tools. It's a consolidation that architects have long needed, especially with Foundry, Bedrock, Vertex AI, and OpenAI behind one endpoint. Policy cards replacing XML feels right. Still, the governance boundary invites scrutiny. Where does oversight truly begin and end? That question matters as much as the convenience.
Explore GitHub Agentic Workflows and discover a smarter way to automate tasks
GitHub's Agentic Workflows are now in public preview, and that's worth your attention. This isn't about swapping one tool for another; it's about letting AI handle the repetitive steps that slow you down. We think that's a meaningful step toward more intuitive automation. If you're ready to see how this fits into a broader strategy, our guide on "Unlock LLM Training" offers a practical look at the distributed systems behind these advances. Explore the preview, and start shaping your workflows around what's possible now.
