Building Reusable Evaluation Frameworks for Agentic AI Products

Susan Chang explains how Elastic transitioned from siloed, ad-hoc AI agent evaluations to a unified, production-grade framework. She discusses balancing LLM-as-a-judge with deterministic rules, bridging Python data science evals with TypeScript production code, and implementing deep tracing to catch regressions across complex RAG and cybersecurity workloads while preserving domain context.

Keeping the Mainline Green across Diverse Language Monorepos

Dhruva Juloori discusses how Uber maintains green mainlines across massive monorepos handling 65,000+ monthly changes. He explains how SubmitQueue uses binary speculation trees, conflict analysis, and machine learning models to predict build success and execution times. Juloori shares how bypassing large diffs slashed CI resource usage by 53% while accelerating PR landing times by 37%.
