AI agents are starting to eat SaaS

AI coding agents are eating the lunch of low-complexity SaaS. Teams with a bit of dev muscle are skipping subscription logins and spinning up dashboards, pipelines, even decks, using Claude, Gemini, whoever’s fastest that day. Build vs. buy? Tilting back toward build. The kicker: build now takes min.. read more

Agent-Driven SRE Investigations: A Practical Deep Dive into Multi-Agent Incident Response

A sandboxed setup dropped multiple Claude-powered agents into Docker containers to run a full incident response drill. Each agent played a role: probing Kubernetes clusters, sniffing out root causes, and shipping remediation PRs straight to GitHub. Out of 7 test incidents, they nailed the diagnoses .. read more

How We Saved 70% of CPU and 60% of Memory in Refinery’s Go Code, No Rust Required.

Refinery 3.0 cuts CPU by 70% and slashes RAM by 60%. The trick: selective field extraction from serialized spans. No full deserialization. Fewer heap allocations. Way less waste. It also recycles buffers, handles metrics smarter, and is gearing up to parallelize its core decision loop... read more

Vertex AI is Google Cloud’s end-to-end machine learning and generative AI platform, designed to help teams build, deploy, and operate AI systems reliably at scale. It unifies data preparation, model training, evaluation, deployment, and monitoring into a single managed environment, reducing operational complexity while supporting advanced AI workloads.

Vertex AI supports both custom models and foundation models, including Google’s Gemini model family. It enables organizations to fine-tune models, run large-scale inference, orchestrate agentic workflows, and integrate AI into production systems with strong security, governance, and observability controls.

The platform includes tools for AutoML, custom training with TensorFlow and PyTorch, managed pipelines, feature stores, vector search, and online and batch prediction. For generative AI use cases, Vertex AI provides APIs for text, image, code, multimodal generation, embeddings, and agent-based systems, including support for Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations.

Built for enterprise environments, Vertex AI integrates deeply with Google Cloud services such as BigQuery, Cloud Storage, IAM, and VPC, enabling secure data access and compliance. It is widely used across industries like finance, healthcare, retail, and science for applications ranging from recommendation systems and forecasting to autonomous research agents and AI-powered products.
