Speaker: Martin-Zack Mekkaoui @ AWS
Abstract: Is your operations team consumed by daily firefighting? Do you lack the time to evaluate and improve your operational posture? Move from reactive firefighting to proactive operational improvement with AWS DevOps Agent, a frontier agent that resolves and proactively prevents incidents, continuously improving reliability and performance of applications in AWS, multicloud, and hybrid environments. We’ll show you how you can leverage AWS DevOps Agent to integrate with your DevOps toolset including AWS and non-AWS observability tools, code repositories, and pipelines to correlate and connect the dots across signals to surface concerning trends and provide prioritized improvements to drive operational excellence.
