• 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.Participants:Ben Potter - VP of Product, CoderRaviteja Yelamanchili - Head of Solutions Engineering, Scale AIJon Yoo - CEO, SugerAdam Ross - US, Partner Sales Sr. Leader, Amazon Web ServicesSee how Amazon Web Services gives you the freedom to migrate, innovate, and scale your software company at https://aws.amazon.com/isv/

• Ep158: From Data Chaos to Data Ownership: Rethinking Observability with Coralogix

  Coralogix CEO Ariel Assaraf reveals how their observability lake lets companies own their data, reduce costs, and use AI agents to transform monitoring into actionable business intelligence.Topics Include:Coralogix solves observability scaling issues: tool disparity, sprawling costs, limited control.Streama parses data pre-ingestion; DataPrime queries directly on customer's own S3 buckets.AI will generate massive unstructured data, making observability challenges exponentially worse.CTOs should ask: Can observability data drive business decisions beyond just monitoring?Observability lake lets you own data in open format versus vendor lock-in.OLLI designed as research engine, not another natural language database interface.Ask business questions like "What's customer experience today?" instead of technical queries.Trading platform unified tools, reduced resolution time 6x, now uses for business intelligence.Future: Multiple AI personas, automated investigations, hypothesis-driven alerts without human prompting.AWS partnership enables S3 innovation, Bedrock models, and strong co-sell growth motion.Data sovereignty solved: customers control their S3, remove access anytime, own encryption.Business data experience will match consumer AI tools within two years fundamentally.Participants:Ariel Assaraf – Chief Executive Officer, CoralogixBoaz Ziniman – Principal Developer Advocate - EMEA, Amazon Web ServicesSee how Amazon Web Services gives you the freedom to migrate, innovate, and scale your software company at https://aws.amazon.com/isv/

• Ep157: Beyond the Hype: Real-World AI Agent Deployments at Automation Anywhere, DataVisor, and Sumo Logic

  ISV leaders from Automation Anywhere, DataVisor, and Sumo Logic share battle-tested strategies for deploying AI agents at scale, including pricing models, proof of concepts and ROI.Topics Include:Panel brings together ISV leaders from automation, fraud detection, and security operations.Companies rethinking entire business processes rather than automating incremental portions with agents.Start with immutable data before tackling real-time changing data in production.Intent for change must come from board, CEO, and customers simultaneously.Challenge: proving agent value beyond CSAT when internal teams block deployment.Sumo Logic measures Mean Time to Resolution, aiming to cut hours to zero.DataVisor cuts fraud alert resolution from one hour down to twenty minutes.Customers demand reliability as workflows shift from deterministic to probabilistic agent decisions.Automation Anywhere spent three years making every platform component fully agent-ready.Focus on business outcomes, not chasing every new model release each week.Human oversight still critical—agents are task-oriented and prone to hallucinations and drift.Humans validate agent findings, then let agents scale actions across hundreds instances.Pricing experiments range from platform-plus-consumption to outcome-based to decision-event models.Token pricing doesn't work due to varied data modalities and complexity.Next two quarters: more POCs moving to production with productive agents deployed.Future prediction: enterprise apps becoming systems of knowledge powered by MCP protocol.Participants:Jay Bala - Senior Vice President of Product, Automation AnywhereKedar Toraskar – VP Product Partnerships, DataVisorBill Peterson - Senior Director, Product Marketing, Sumo LogicJillian D'Arcy - ISV Senior Leader, Amazon Web ServicesSee how Amazon Web Services gives you the freedom to migrate, innovate, and scale your software company at https://aws.amazon.com/isv/

• Ep156: LLM Migrations to One Cloud: Coveo's Strategic Move to Amazon Bedrock

  Learn how Coveo automated LLM migration like a "mind transplant," building frameworks to optimize prompts and maintain quality across model changes.Topics Include:AWS and Coveo discuss their Gen-AI innovation using Amazon Bedrock and Nova.Coveo faced multi-cloud complexity, data residency requirements, and rising AI costs.Coveo indexes enterprise content across hundreds of sources while maintaining security permissions.The platform powers search, generative answers, and AI agents across commerce and support.CRGA is Coveo's fully managed RAG solution deployed in days, not months.Customers see 20-30% case reduction; SAP Concur saves €8 million annually.Original architecture used GPT on Azure; migration targeted Nova Lite on Bedrock.Infrastructure setup involved guardrails and load testing for 70 billion monthly tokens.Migrating LLMs is like a "mind transplant"—prompts must be completely re-optimized.Coveo built automated evaluation framework testing 20+ behaviors with each system change.Nova Lite improved answer accuracy, reduced hallucinations, and matched GPT-4o Mini performance.Migration simplified governance, enabled regional compliance, reduced latency, and lowered costs.Participants:Sebastien Paquet – Vice President, AI Strategy, CoveoYanick Houngbedji – Solutions Architect Canada ISV, Amazon Web ServicesSee how Amazon Web Services gives you the freedom to migrate, innovate, and scale your software company at https://aws.amazon.com/isv/
