Building a Secure MCP Server on AWS for a Million-Company B2B Platform
We wanted to expose a B2B intelligence platform built on more than one million company profiles to an LLM client through an MCP server so a user can ask “find SaaS companies in Germany with 50-200 employees” and receive results through the LLM client. The engineering problem was: How do you make that workflow useful without creating an unsafe bridge between an LLM and production data?

Securing Autonomous AI Agents on Kubernetes: Trust Boundaries, Secrets, and Observability for a New Category of Cloud Workload
Autonomous AI agents break Kubernetes security assumptions with dynamic dependencies, multi-domain credentials, and unpredictable resource use. This article covers production-tested patterns: Job-based isolation, Vault for scoped short-lived credentials, a four-phase trust model from shadow mode to autonomous operation, and observability for non-deterministic reasoning cycles.

CodeGuardian: a Model Context Protocol Server for AI-Assisted Code Quality Analysis and Security Scanning
CodeGuardian is an MCP server that extends AI coding assistants with comprehensive code quality and security analysis capabilities. By implementing eleven specialized tools, CodeGuardian enables developers to access enterprise-grade analysis directly through their AI assistant, eliminating context-switching and reducing friction in adopting secure coding practices.

Evaluating AI Agents in Practice: Benchmarks, Frameworks, and Lessons Learned
This article introduces practical methods for evaluating AI agents operating in real-world environments. It explains how to combine benchmarks, automated evaluation pipelines, and human review to measure reliability, task success, and multi-step agent behavior. The article also discusses the challenges of evaluating systems that plan, use tools, and operate across multiple interaction turns.

Building a Least-Privilege AI Agent Gateway for Infrastructure Automation with MCP, OPA, and Ephemeral Runners
This article presents a least-privilege AI Agent Gateway that places clear controls between AI agents and infrastructure. Agents do not access infrastructure APIs directly. Instead, every request is validated, authorized using policy as code with Open Policy Agent (OPA), and executed in short-lived, isolated environments, with built-in observability using OpenTelemetry.

Architecting Agentic MLOps: a Layered Protocol Strategy with A2A and MCP
In this article, the authors outline protocols for building extensible multi-agent MLOps systems. The core architecture deliberately decouples orchestration from execution, allowing teams to incrementally add capabilities via discovery and evolve operations from static pipelines toward intelligent, adaptive coordination.

Building LLMs in Resource-Constrained Environments: a Hands-On Perspective
In this article, the author argues that infrastructure and compute limitations can drive innovation. It demonstrates how smaller, efficient models, synthetic data generation, and disciplined engineering enable the creation of impactful LLM-based AI systems despite severe resource constraints.

From Alert Fatigue to Agent-Assisted Intelligent Observability
As systems grow, observability becomes harder to maintain and incidents harder to diagnose. Agentic observability layers AI on existing tools, starting in read-only mode to detect anomalies and summarize issues. Over time, agents add context, correlate signals, and automate low-risk tasks. This approach frees engineers to focus on analysis and judgment.

Autonomous Big Data Optimization: Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning to Achieve Self-Tuning Apache Spark
This article introduces a reinforcement learning (RL) approach grounded in Apache Spark that enables distributed computing systems to learn optimal configurations autonomously, much like an apprentice engineer who learns by doing. The author also implements a lightweight agent as a driver-side component that uses RL to choose configuration settings before a job runs.

Article Series: AI-Assisted Development: Real World Patterns, Pitfalls, and Production Readiness
In this series, we examine what happens after the proof of concept and how AI becomes part of the software delivery pipeline. As AI transitions from proof of concept to production, teams are discovering that the challenge extends beyond model performance to include architecture, process, and accountability. This transition is redefining what constitutes good software engineering.
