The Expert Path: Orchestrating Platform Resilience in the Era of AI-Driven Complexity

When AI Accelerates Change, How Do You Scale Operational Expertise?

Location: The Stafford Mayfair, London

AI-powered code generation is transforming software delivery. Teams are shipping faster than ever, but the resulting volume, velocity and complexity of change are creating new operational challenges.

As systems become more dynamic, critical troubleshooting knowledge often remains concentrated within a small group of senior engineers. During incidents, these experts become the default escalation path - slowing resolution, increasing operational risk, and limiting an organization's ability to scale. 

Join a select group of infrastructure, platform engineering and observability leaders in London for an invitation-only dinner and discussion exploring how organizations can operationalize expert knowledge, improve resilience, and enable faster resolution in increasingly complex environments. 

Dinner Discussion Topics

The Expert Knowledge Bottleneck

As AI-generated code accelerates the pace of change, many organizations are struggling to distribute operational expertise across their teams.

Discussion themes include:

• How are you reducing dependence on a handful of senior engineers during incidents?
• What approaches are helping teams capture and scale expert troubleshooting knowledge?
• How can organizations empower every engineer to follow an expert path to root cause?
• What operational challenges are emerging as AI increases development velocity?

Building Trust in Automated Remediation

Automation has the potential to dramatically reduce operational burden, but trust remains a significant hurdle.

We'll explore:

• What visibility and context leaders require before allowing automated action in production environments
• The role of explainability and reasoning paths in operational decision-making
• How observability can help bridge the gap between automation and trust
• Lessons learned from organizations advancing toward autonomous operations

Rethinking Telemetry Cost Optimization

As telemetry volumes continue to grow, engineering leaders are seeking more strategic approaches to managing observability costs.

Topics include:

• Moving beyond simple "keep or delete" decisions
• Identifying the signals most critical to business-critical workflows
• Balancing visibility, performance and cost efficiency
• Prioritizing telemetry investments that deliver meaningful operational value
