Is your enterprise actually ready for agentic AI?

The biggest barrier to agentic AI may not be the models — it may be the enterprise itself.

As Ravi Bulusu, CTO of IFS Loops, explains in our latest AI Loves Data Podcast, agents need much more than an LLM to operate effectively.

They need APIs. MCP servers. CLIs. A semantic layer that actually represents the business. And critically, they need boundaries.

As we move from software interfaces that restrict what users can do to agents capable of taking action across systems, those boundaries become even more important.

Awards are only as credible as the people evaluating them.
That’s why we’re assembling a judging panel made up of practitioners who build, deploy, govern, and scale AI every day.

MicroAgents:
The Microservices of the Agentic Era As enterprises move beyond single LLM applications, one question is becoming increasingly important:
How should AI agents actually be architected?
At AI Loves Data SF, Ashish Shubham,
VP of Engineering at ThoughtSpot, will explore why MicroAgents may become the building blocks of the next generation of enterprise AI. Instead of relying on monolithic agents, organizations are beginning to design specialized, composable agents that communicate, scale independently, and solve focused tasks—much like microservices transformed software architecture.
We’ll discuss:
• MicroAgents vs. monolithic agents
• Building scalable agentic architectures
• Enterprise design patterns for autonomous systems Join us November 5.
