July Meetup - Hosted Agents and shipping fixes fast with AI

Andrew Rickard - 75,000 threads and a deadline: shipping fixes fast with AI
A production IIS server bleeding threads. A system under pressure. A fix that needed to ship — fast. This talk walks through a real P1 incident investigation and the rapid sequence of code changes that followed, showing how AI-assisted development changes the pace and shape of crisis response. We'll look at the actual context & data driven approach, the iteration loop, and how a legacy IIS issue became the catalyst for a move to Azure App Service.

Tama Waddell - Build, Ship & Run code-first Hosted Agents with Microsoft Foundry
You've spent this year building out your agent harness for your coding projects. Some of you have gone further and started automating your own workflows, business processes and SDLC.
How do you build capable agents requires more than just an Agent.md file? How can I get my current harness into the cloud to run automatically. How do you orchestrate agents to talk to one another? How can I use tokens on the cloud rather than my own?
Microsoft foundry provides these capabilities through prompt agents and hosted agents. Hosted Agents are Microsoft Foundry's code-first solution for agentic AI.
Come join Tama as he shares how to get your own fully capable agent deployed into the cloud as a hosted agent. How to build them, ship them and run them so you can automate business workflows for yourself, your team or the company.
Are you ready for the next generation of agents?
