AGNTCon Preday Meetup - Agentic AI in the Wild: Securing What Runs in Production

​AI agents are moving into production. The question is no longer whether to use them, but whether you can trust what they ship.

​This AGNTCon PreDay meetup brings together security researchers, developer advocates, and platform engineers integrating AI agents into real codebases, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud-native systems.

​The evening focuses on conversations that rarely fit into conference talks: what breaks when an agent has write access to your dependencies, how to encode your team's standards into machine-readable guardrails, and what changes when agentic systems run at cloud-native scale.

​Under the theme Security, Quality, and Scale, we'll explore agentic supply-chain risk, AI-powered code review, and Java and cloud-native's evolving role in agentic systems.

​No vendor pitches. Just practical lessons from systems running in production.

​Hosted by: Amsterdam Java User Group × Dutch Cloud Native & AI Community Group × Codex Community × Qodo Dev Community

​PANEL: AGENTIC AI IN THE WILD What does it take to move AI agents from proof of concept into systems that operate reliably? Practitioners from across the technology stack will discuss context management, governance, production workflows, failure modes, and what changes when agentic systems scale. Expect concrete lessons, not talking points.

​Moderator: Dana Fine Panelists: Brian Vermeer (Java Community), Carlos Mestre del Pin (Microsoft), Alessandro Stefouli-Vozza (Cloud Native Community), Speaker TBA (OpenAI)
