    Ep166: It’s the end of observability as we know it with Honeycomb

    Honeycomb's VP of Marketing Shabih Syed reveals why traditional observability is dead and how AI-powered tools are transforming the way engineers debug production systems, with real examples. Topics Include: Observability is how you understand and troubleshoot your production systems in real-timeShabih's 18-year journey: developer to product manager to marketing VP shares unique perspectiveAI coding assistants are fundamentally changing how fast engineers ship code to productionCustomer patience is gone - one checkout failure means losing them foreverOver 90% of engineers now "vibe code" with AI, creating new complexityObservability costs are spiraling - engineers forced to limit logging, creating debugging dead-endsHoneycomb reimagines observability: meeting expectations, reducing complexity, breaking the cost curveMajor customers like Booking.com and Intercom already transforming with AI-native observabilityMCP server brings production data directly into your IDE for real-time AI assistanceCanvas enables plain English investigations to find "unknown unknowns" before they become problemsAnomaly detection helps junior engineers spot issues they wouldn't know to look forStatic dashboards are dead - AI-powered workflows are the future of system observation Participants: Shabih Syed - VP Product Marketing, Honeycomb.io  See how Amazon Web Services gives you the freedom to migrate, innovate, and scale your software company at https://aws.amazon.com/isv/

    Ep159: Why Agentic AI Projects Fail (and How To Avoid It)

    Industry leaders from Coder, Scale AI, and Suger reveal why 95% of AI pilots fail—and share the frameworks that actually work to get agents into production. Topics Include: Panel features leaders from Coder, Scale AI, and Suger discussing agentic AI.MIT report reveals 95% of AI pilots fail to reach production.Challenges are rarely technical—they're organizational, mindset, and people-driven instead.Companies lack documented tribal knowledge needed to train agents effectively.Many organizations attempt AI where deterministic, rules-based automation would work better."Freestyle agents" concept: Some problems shouldn't be solved by agents at all.Regulated industries struggle when asking agents to handle highly differentiated, complex tasks.Common mistakes: building one universal agent or separate agents for every use case.Post-billing workflows and business-critical operations aren't ready for AI's black box.VCs pressure companies to define "AI-native"—but nobody has clear answers yet.Scale AI uses five maturity levels; Coder uses three tiers for adoption.Success metrics span operational readiness, business impact, and technology performance indicators.Production requires data governance, context, A/B testing, and robust fallback mechanisms.Even Anthropic uses agents conservatively: research tasks and log triage, no write-access.Path to 50% success requires agile frameworks, people change, and proper AI talent.
