IT systems are not neat self-contained boxes with a few components. A single application deployment today has hundreds of moving parts. An IT landscape contains thousands of those applications.
On the other side sit AI agents with vast world knowledge. Like humans they struggle with context overload. They can't possibly keep a whole datacenter in their head at once.
Neither can we. We navigate.
In this talk we'll show how an agent can navigate and operate a system of hundreds of thousands of components, working from a live map of the infrastructure and a connector layer that lets it act on anything the map reveals.
The result: an agent that adapts itself to the landscape it walks into, instead of a bespoke setup for every shape of IT.
