Platform engineering is entering a new phase: infrastructure is no longer only provisioned through pipelines, templates, and tickets, but increasingly through agentic workflows that can understand intent, reason over platform standards, generate changes, and help operate production systems. In this session, we will explore how agentic approaches can reshape the platform engineering and SRE lifecycle, from infrastructure creation to incident response. Through a live demo, we will first use GitHub Copilot to provision cloud infrastructure by working with repository context, infrastructure-as-code patterns, and platform conventions. Then we will shift into operations and show how Azure SRE Agent can support proactive incident management through detection, diagnosis, response planning, and guided remediation. While the demo uses GitHub Copilot and Azure SRE Agent, the focus is not on a particular service or product. The real discussion is about reusable patterns: how to design agent-ready platforms, how to encode organizational standards as context, how to keep humans in control, and how to introduce safe autonomy into infrastructure and reliability workflows. Attendees will leave with a practical mental model for agentic platform engineering: where agents can help, where guardrails are essential, and how platform teams can evolve from ticket-driven enablement toward intent-driven, context-aware operations.
What I actually do : I draw boxes and lines and say the word "Kubernetes" a lot. Recently i'm prompting too much while letting Github Copilot do all the magic. https://www.dailydoseofghcp.com/ What LinkedIn says I do : After completing a Bachelor’s in Electronics Engineering and a Master’s in Computer Science, I started my career at HPE (then HP) working in pre-sales around x86 server technologies during the Alpha Server era. I later joined Intel, where I evangelized the tick-tock story of Xeon processors across CEE & MEA.Next came AWS, where I had the opportunity to work as AM, SA and TAM with several fast-growing companies including Opsgenie (now Atlassian), Gram Games (now Zynga), Trendyol (now Alibaba) and Yemeksepeti (now Delivery Hero). In 2019 I moved to the Netherlands as a Partner Solutions Architect, helping expand the AWS partner ecosystem across EMEA and later working directly with enterprise customers in the BENELUX region. Most recently, I joined Microsoft as an AI & Cloud Architect, working with Digital Natives and Startups across EMEA.
