AI Agents for Cloud-Native Web Applications

Building modern web applications is only half the challenge. Keeping them reliable, scalable, and responsive in production is where things get harder.

This workshop explores how AI is changing both sides of the equation: how cloud-native applications are built, and how they are operated once they go live. You’ll learn how AI can accelerate development through intent-driven workflows and Spec-Driven Development, while also improving operations through intelligent monitoring, troubleshooting, and incident response.

Rather than treating AI as a coding novelty, this session shows how AI agents can support the full lifecycle of cloud-native applications — from turning a specification into working software to helping teams keep production systems healthy and resilient.

If you want to understand how AI fits into modern cloud-native delivery beyond just code generation, this workshop is for you.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll be able to:

• By the end of this workshop, you’ll be able to:
• Explain how AI is transforming the lifecycle of cloud-native web applications

• Understand how to accelerate development using intent-driven workflows and Spec-Driven Development
• Recognize where AI agents can improve operational workflows in modern cloud environments
• Understand how intelligent agents can support monitoring, troubleshooting, and incident response
• Think more strategically about how to connect software delivery with operational resilience
• See how AI can help teams move from AI-generated specs to AI-supported production systems

You’ll leave with a stronger mental model for how AI agents fit into both the building and running of modern cloud-native applications.

You should walk away with:

• A practical introduction to the AI-assisted app lifecycle
• A clearer understanding of how AI supports both development and operations
• Insight into using Spec-Driven Development and AI coding best practices to build with more intent
• A practical look at how platform teams can use the Azure SRE Agent to improve operations
• Real-world examples of AI supporting:
  • monitoring
  • troubleshooting
  • incident response
  • remediation
• A stronger understanding of how to connect development and operations through AI-native workflows
• Live Q&A with the speaker to explore implementation ideas and real-world concerns

You’ll also receive:

✔ full workshop recording

✔ certificate of completion
