Video summary
Enterprise IT environments are increasingly becoming distributed and dynamic, yet operations teams often struggle with disconnected tools and manual workflows that create a fundamental mismatch between fast-moving application teams and those responsible for reliability. To address this, Fabrix.AI envisions a multi-vendor governed Vibe Ops platform that leverages AI coding principles to generate operational artifacts like dashboards, agents, and automations. This approach allows operations personnel, such as SREs and platform engineers, to express their intent in natural language without needing deep coding skills, effectively bridging the gap between development speed and operational stability while maintaining necessary controls for security and performance.
The core of this solution lies in its unique architecture that combines a "living ontology" with specialized Small Language Models (SLMs) to ensure enterprise readiness and trust. Unlike generic cloud models, Fabrix.AI deploys sovereign SLMs that learn directly within the customer's environment, providing domain-specific knowledge for tasks like vulnerability exposure and service mapping without sending sensitive data over the network. This is supported by a robust governance framework that integrates with various AI coding assistants—such as Cursor, Cloud Code, or IBM Watsonx—to create code in a secure "landing zone." Here, every generated artifact undergoes rigorous review, version control, testing via tools like Playwright, and AI summarization before deployment, ensuring that the resulting agents are accurate, cost-efficient, and free from hallucinations.
In practice, this technology transforms traditional "swivel chair" operations into streamlined, proactive workflows by coalescing data from disparate sources like APM, ITSM, and network devices into a single pane of glass. For example, in a real-world deployment with a Fortune 500 company, the platform enabled ambient agents to continuously monitor VPNs and Wi-Fi environments, identifying and resolving issues before they escalated into tickets, which resulted in annual savings of approximately $1.23 million. The system uses this living ontology to guide agents through complex root cause analyses across multiple domains, clearly indicating data availability and enrichment status, thereby allowing humans to remain in control while significantly reducing the time spent correlating information from twenty or more different tools.
The adoption journey for organizations begins with small-scale pilots focused on specific use cases like network health monitoring, delivering measurable productivity gains within the first 30 to 90 days. As teams gain confidence, they can evolve toward consolidating their toolchains and collapsing traditional boundaries between IT operations, security, and software development under a unified data layer. Fabrix.AI emphasizes that successful Vibe Ops relies on three pillars: the right model selection for sovereign AI efficiency, an open harness capable of interfacing with any data source or coding assistant, and advanced tokenization strategies to optimize costs and prevent rogue agent behavior. Ultimately, this platform empowers operations teams to transition from reactive troubleshooting to curated, agent-driven workflows that enhance reliability across their entire infrastructure.

Enterprise IT environments are becoming
more distributed, more dynamic, and
increasingly agent-driven. Yet, most
operations teams still work across
disconnected tools, static dashboards,
and manual workflows. And really, that
creates a a fundamental mismatch.
Application and AI teams can move
faster, but the people responsible for
reliability, security, and performance
are still spending too much time
gathering context and trying to
coordinate action.
Welcome to this network angle. I'm Bob
La Liberte, principal analyst at the
Cube Research. Joining me today is
Challes Magikar, the chief marketing
officer and head of AI strategy at
Fabrics AI. and we're going to discuss
Fabric's AI's vision for a multi- vendor
governed Vibe Ops operational
intelligence platform and what that
means, why it matters for it and network
operations and what organizations need
in order to trust agents in production.
And Chalesh will also show us the
platform in action. Chalesh, welcome. I
know you're an alumnest here, but great
to have you back on.
>> Hey, thank you, Bob. It's been a
pleasure to be on your show again. Uh
yeah, looking forward to this
conversation.
>> Absolutely. All right. So, so let's get
started. I I gave quite a mouthful
there, right? Multi- vendor governed
vibe ops operational intelligence
platform. So that covers a lot of
ground. So I think the first thing we
need to do is let's begin by making it
tangible. Let's talk about what is
governed vibe ops, who's going to be the
user and what problem are you trying to
solve for for the operations teams?
Yeah, that's that that's certainly a
long kind of entitle, right? So, let's
kind of decipher that what we mean by
that, right? So, if you know wipe coding
has been a term coined by Andre Carpage,
right? And what uh it brought to the
light is the ability to actually
leverage LLM or the AI coding assistance
for writing code, right? And that has
become by far one of the most widely
used uh and um democratized use case for
AI and LLMs. Right now WOPS is kind of
an subset of W coding where you're using
the same principles but primarily focus
on generating operational artifacts.
Right? And what what I mean by that it
could be dashboards, it could be AI
agents, it could be workflow
automations, right? Or automation
workflows, right? All of that using the
same principles and the same tools what
you have been used to in the W coding
arena. What I mean by that is you could
use cloud code, you could use cursor,
you could use codeex, right? Uh what
have you and I'll talk about we pretty
much support all of those leading
platforms. Okay. So that's what we mean
by uh wops essentially and uh the use
cases where wbops at least to begin with
is is is kind of envisaged uh to play a
role is primarily around the same use
cases where we've been playing which is
observability which is assurance uh
which is sec ops which is change
management and so on and so forth right
so that's kind of the second deciphering
let's talk about now what do we mean by
govern so there are two aspects to
govern so first and foremost Most the
govern comes from the agent tops ability
of an harness or of an platform and what
I mean by that is the ability to collect
to disparate data sources right whether
they are APM tool ITM tools npm tools
right or just getting telemetry from
devices you got to be able to coales all
of that that's the first step right so
you it has to be your wbops has to be
grounded in an customer environment and
in in a customer data sets Right? So
that's kind of the first aspect and then
obviously you got to uh you know make
sure that the context is very curated
and so on and so forth. Okay. But that's
what our harness provides right or what
or any other harness is expected to
provide to to the operational aspects of
wops. The second aspect of governance as
I was telling you about was you know w
coding by itself has a little bit of bad
connotation because the AI coding
assistants are generating so much AI so
much of code nobody's inspecting that
and everybody's focused on the outcome
right and that has kind of created
created a bad reputation for w coding to
some extent with tools like lovable and
so on where you know uh there were some
vulnerability uh security
vulnerabilities which were exposed in
this code. So what we are doing with the
platform is many of these platforms are
integrated with our fabric CI uh agentic
platform. There are two in particular
which are actually embedded in the
platform itself. One is an open-source
tool called open code. The other one is
IBM Bob because of our partnership with
IBM. uh but the rest are also integrated
and what that does is now this AI
generated code lands into what we call a
land landing zone and you are able to
look at that code you're able to review
that you are able to version control it
you're able to test it so we have tools
like playright uh which are already
integrated uh into the platform so you
are able to test APIs and so on and so
forth and then eventually you are also
able to generate AI summary which I'll
show you uh in in the in the demo right
but uh this is What we mean by the
second level of governance where now we
are making this AI generated code
enterprise ready. Okay. Uh and and those
artifacts as a as a nature as a
byproduct of it make them enterprise
ready.
>> Got it. Yeah. And that makes sense
because these aren't people who are
actual coders that are going to be using
it. Right. This is the operations teams.
So providing those additional guard
rails are going to give them the ability
to trust what they're doing and how
they're able to create those new
dashboards, those that new visibility
and so forth that they need to run their
businesses better.
>> Yeah, absolutely. So the personas whom
we've envisaged using this are primarily
you know the operational personas. It
could be SRRES, it could be IT
operational guys, it could be platform
engineers, right? And uh the the the
beauty of a w coding is essentially the
ability to ex express an intent in
natural language right so it doesn't
need a whole lot of skills for them to
understand it right the use cases remain
the same the outcomes remain the same
right it's really how you kind of
achieve those outcomes right is what
really u kind of makes the difference
>> okay and then one other thing I want to
follow up on you had talked about vaude
coding and its in its essence of
requiring an LLM to be able to use it
and go back and forth So with your
product are you actually going out to
the public LLMs or have you developed
your own internally?
>> Yeah. So that's a very interesting
question. So one of the other uh um
capabilities we are announcing along
with WOPS is this ability to have our
own SLMs right small language models. So
uh obviously there are other players
also doing this but what those SLMs
provide you is domain specific uh
knowledge right. So now the the the AI
agents we develop or even the AI
assistants who will be doing the wops
work they know exactly what is a
semantic to talk to our platform. So
that's one aspect. So we have an LLM
primarily focused on uh enabling the
semantic and how to talk to our
platform. There's another SLM what we're
using is for AI ops. So this SLM
understands the customer environment. It
understands the customer deployment or
its service maps. it understands the
correlation policies and so on and so
forth. So that's primarily think of that
as an as an subject matter expert for AI
ops use cases and the third LLM we are
we will be launching is primarily around
what we call vulnerability exposure
right so that's more like an SEC ops use
case so as you can see this SLMs bring a
multitude of uh benefits to the end
customer so first and foremost is what
we call sovereign AI that means uh these
are SLMs which stay within the customer
environment they learn about the
customer environment and if you tomorrow
decide you don't want them all you do is
you just delete the adapter right so
these are based on wellproven
methodologies like Qur fine-tuning and
so on and so forth right the second
benefit you you get is obviously the
performance because now we are not going
out on the wire right over the network
and bringing it from an cloud LLM the
third uh this is around efficiency right
so our accuracy so the accuracy with
this SLMs can be extremely high almost
up to the 90th 90th percentile because
they know your domain specific data. And
finally, last but not least is the
economics what they build bring, right?
So you're not paying up, you know, a
whole boatload of money, right, for for
the cloud LLM, right? You could use
still use the foundational models where
they're relevant. So we have an internal
router which leverages the right LLM or
SLM based on the task at hand. But
that's essentially uh the the other
announcement we'll be making.
>> All right. No, that sounds good. And I
think that's going to be important,
especially those SLMs that are focused
on their particular environments and so
forth, as you mentioned, are going to
help drive up the effectiveness and the
the uh accuracy of those models as well.
Um, all right, I want to change gears a
little bit. I mean, a lot of people
talking about the promise of agentic
operations and so forth and how it
depends on having agents um that are
able to provide accurate context and the
ability to work across multiple domains
and so forth. How is Fabric's AI
connecting to multiple vendor platforms
and data sources? Um, right. Building
out, I think we've talked about this
before, building out a living ontology
and then be able to orchestrate
specialized agents without requiring
customers to centralize or replace all
of their existing tools.
>> Yeah, I think that that's a very good
question again, right? So, uh, as I
said, so WBOPS and agent tops has to
work in tandem, right?
uh agent ops is all about how you
operationalize the agents and wops is
essentially the ability to provide uh
instructions or talk to that agent
optops platform right um so uh first and
foremost you need to have all your data
sources right coales right when I mean a
coalist is you don't need to bring in
all that data so the way we we do it is
uh our data fabric right which has been
our claim to fame even when we were an
AI ops company right? Allows you to
connect to disparate data sources,
right? I mean it could be APM tools, it
could be ITM tools, it could be npm
tools, it could be ITSM tools, right? Uh
it could be direct devices, right? So we
have the ability if you don't have an
existing environment, right, which
typically doesn't happen, right?
Typically large enterprise customers at
least have anywhere from five to 20
tools already in their platform which
are domain specific, right? uh but if
you don't have we have the ability to go
directly uh to the devices and collect
telemetry and enrich that right so
that's kind of the first step the data
fabric does uh you know it coaleses all
of this right and then uh the way we do
that is also very interesting uh you
know when we create this ontology layer
which is essentially we call it the GPS
for AI agents right so it's a living
ontology and the way we do it is through
AI agents again right so we don't do
there's no hardcore uh you know rules or
anything of that kind. We go out to
these data sources, we do data
discovery, understand the schema of each
of these tools and then we bring in that
metadata into an interconnected layer.
Right? So now the the the agents have
some structure when they're looking at
at the data level right. So and the way
we do this
uh you know so it's all agents using MCP
and we call this as universal uh
universal tooling that means we have the
ability to create MCP wrappers run in
runtime right whether you have an MCP
server whether you have an API or you
have just a device right so we can get
data create this ontology layer so
that's kind of the one of the major
building block as part of the harness
and then of course the the other aspect
is you how we do tokenization right so
the context intelligent context engine
what I we have has lot of optimizations
on how we preserve this tokens right so
I I keep saying that hey not all
harnesses are built equal right so our
ability to give very precise and curated
information to this agent provide inter
tool connection right provide this LLM
router right providing compaction um you
know caching at at an context layer is
all of those things are kind of you know
paramount when you're looking at you
know optimizing your tokens. Okay.
>> Okay.
>> But I hopefully I I address that right?
>> Yeah. No, I think that's I think that
was good. I mean I mean it's clear that
this living ontology layer is very
different from a static CMDB or a
service map. I mean is it is it fair to
think of it as kind of an operational
digital twin? [snorts]
>> Yeah. So I think digital twin is kind of
an uh slightly overloaded term and it's
been used in multiple uh you know
context by multiple vendors. So digital
twin kind of goes a little further right
where you are actually simulating some
environments with the data at hand. you
have the ability to do you know like a
DVR move forward move backward in time
the ontology layer is primarily targeted
for solving one and one problem right
that hey providing that accurate and
curated information to this AI agent so
they are not hallucinating they are
optimizing their tokens right so if you
think of it you know now say an agent or
an LLM is given a task to do a root
cause analysis right and there are five
or six different artifacts which It
needs right say maybe it needs lock from
Splunk, it needs metrics from Diana
trace right it needs events from some
other event uh um kind of an data source
right so the ontology layer tells the
agents right out of the bat that hey
this particular data source is ready
it's enriched and it's ready to be
consumed right so that's kind of an
green indication for the LLM it could be
orange where the data source is
available but it's not enriched right or
it could be white right or gray where
the data source is absolutely not
available and that's where the agent
will have to do some MCP calls and and
so on and so forth. So this is how we
kind of provide that intelligence or
that semantic layer or also the context
graph if you will to those those agents.
Okay. So slightly different than uh
digital twin itself and it's kind of an
overloaded term in my mind.
>> Got it. No understood. That's that's
some great detail on the on the product
itself and and clearly, you know, having
the right architecture is important, but
buyers also really care about their
outcomes and the operational outcomes.
Can you walk us through how this model
changes real a real workflow? You know,
maybe it's uh network health VPN
troubleshooting, CVE exposure, something
like that. maybe a full stack root cause
analysis as it compares to maybe some of
the traditional swivel chair operations
that are occurring today.
>> Yeah. No, I think that's that's really
good question, Bob. Right. And you know,
it finally boils down to uh what's your
success story, right? And we are
actually we we uh we are very uh you
know um uh kind of uh we take pride in
actually sharing that we already have
couple customers who are leveraging the
platform and have seen some tangible
results. Right? So there's this one
large fortune 500 customer which is uh
using us in production almost from the
beginning of this year and what they had
before us right so think of it as an anc
which is based on you know the
traditional tools right they had about
25 different disparate tools right right
uh they had about 12,000 or 13,000
assets about 207 applications right and
they had this mandate to go agentic but
they were stuck with this what we're
calling in the swivel chair problem,
right? Where you have different
dashboards from different vendors and
you are in a war room trying to, you
know, with five different subject matter
experts looking at those disparate
dashboards trying to arrive at a root
cause, right? We were able to eliminate
all of that with this W operated
dashboards, right? which pro provides
now a single pane of glass across their
you know disparate environments across
applications across the agent technic
across infra across service ops right
and we did an analysis of that right uh
uh without agents and with agents right
and particularly agents which were built
uh with uh wops right with the
dashboards and so on and they were like
they had phenomenal success right so
they were able to almost save about uh
1.23 23 million per year uh with this
approach across full full stack root
cause analysis right VPN uh right Wi-Fi
and then also CDs right and what I mean
by that is the previous uh workflows
were you know you're looking at all this
20 25 different tools right you're
spending time you know getting those
artifacts you're kind of trying to
converge on a root cause analysis now
you have agents doing all of that right
when it comes to VPN and and Wi-Fi right
disparate different tools right you have
uh Cisco you know u the the firewall
right asd right uh you have uh you know
identity management systems across all
of this what we had was what we call
ambient agents that means these are
proactive agents which are continuously
running and monitoring and Wi-Fi point
endpoint uh it's w it's monitoring uh
the VPN environment right so this
particular solution we call it as deex X
digital uh employee experience right so
it's monitoring all the way from the
endpoint to the data center right across
SD vans and and so on across almost
eight different domains and uh we were
able to create and help desk without an
ticket for them right so it's a very
powerful statement right as you can
imagine that there were no I mean
because those proactive agents were
looking at um at those issues you know
before they could even arise and they
were able to some of them they were able
to fix and then you know uh either have
human in the loop to resolve to final
remediation step or at least notify them
right so those were kind of the outcomes
where which we were able to kind of
prove the second customer is actually a
large SI right and they are also seeing
uh they started with their internal IT
operations right and they were so so
happy with the outcomes now they're
training their full kind of strength of
fds what we call uh you know full stack
full dep uh fullstack deployment
engineers right um where which are kind
of expected to be the front end to take
an AI use case and and provide an and
deployment right so they're training
those so those are some of the outcomes
which I can talk to kind of share with
you Bob
>> no absolutely those those sound great
and actually my next question kind of
builds on that I mean you're giving
operations teams the ability to create
new dashboards agents right and a lot of
automations right really powerful stuff,
but many operators today are not
developers. So I'm wondering, especially
with those customers you had mentioned,
what does that adoption journey look
like and how do you help teams become
more comfortable using these
capabilities safely in production?
>> Yeah. So that's that's a really good
question, right? So if you look uh you
know with with the wipe wipe ops
techniques, right? So there is really
not whole lot of uh you know expertise
needed to actually create those
artifacts right now. How to use that
artifacts? You need subject matter
expertise right or actually telling that
intent. So that's where the subject
matter expertise comes in right and
that's no different than what they had
before. So you know the the the the
personas whom we tend to go after
platform engineers or S surres all right
and they are now increasingly not just
you know managing operational aspects
but also uh responsible for you know
devops and so on and so forth right so
it it kind kind of comes uh natural but
uh to your point yes uh there there
would still be subject matter expertise
needed on how to use it and what what
outcomes uh you have to uh look for and
kind of work towards Right? So that's
one aspect. The other aspect is is
clearly you know this FDES right which
is becoming an prominent role now in the
AI arena. Right. So this FD so we've
been starting to train FDs with our SI
partners right and the OEM partners
alike okay uh who have a better
understanding of the AI domain and the
AI landscape right and they are able to
handhold the customer and we do the same
thing. So we are a relatively small team
but with the this large customers whom
we are talking about we handhold them
through their journey right so again
this is a new arena but you would see uh
you know Gartner has put out almost two
publications around wops and how wops is
relevant for an agentic knock or agentic
sock right so the underlying
infrastructure is changing very fast to
keep up with this new approaches around
wipe coding and agentic and so on and so
forth right and that's where I think you
you were asking me earlier uh it also
equally applies to uh you know um to
companies who are not using wipe coding
today right I mean they could just be
doing agent tops right and this
principles are still relevant for them
>> got it no that makes sense so certainly
you know giving the forward deployed
engineers some some tools and some
technology that's going to help them
enable that given all that when you get
in you get started what should a
customer expect in the first 30 60 90
days what's the time to value for
organizations deploying the platform
>> yeah so I would I would suggest you know
start with smaller use case right where
you can identify you know uh tangible
goals what you want to accomplish right
I mean it could be a VPN environment
right uh it could be your Wi-Fi
environment right uh and or it could be
uh just your application start with one
application monitoring right which is of
importance to you, right? Um
>> start there, you know, do a pilot and
and then as you know, start with
productivity enhancements. So that's
kind of the first step where we see you
know the value in the 30 60 90 days. uh
as you kind of evolve from productivity
enhancements then you are able to see
that hey you are now able to consolidate
some of these tools right that hey you
don't need 20 25 tools at all different
levels right then as you progress you
see that hey many of this you know uh
the the uh the environments or the
traditional disciplines are actually
collapsing right because now like you
know when you think about reasoning
model like mythos or daybreak right
these reasoning models they understand
boundaries right I mean you you are
getting so many day zero vulnerabilities
right out of say a mythos now you need
to understand using the sec ops
principles that hey what is actually
what does this mean for me right what is
my exposure what is my blast radius uh
that kind of leads you into the IT ops
arena where you're looking at all your
deployed environment right and then it
kind of crosses over to the sock right
which has been traditionally where you
have been looking at vulnerabilities and
so on. Okay. So that you are kind of you
know collapsing this this kind of you
know boundaries where IT ops sec ops
right knocks are kind of consolidating
under that same data layer or that
ontology layer. So that is how we see
the progression happening across uh
different customers and and these
personas.
>> Excellent. That sounds great. Well we
we've talked about the product and what
it is. We've talked about the
architecture and the outcomes and as I
alluded to in the beginning you know
let's make this real for the viewers and
chilles can you give us a demo of the
platform
>> yeah so Bob uh yeah I'll certainly try
this is a live demo right but uh yeah I
would be happy to share you know some of
these capabilities uh what we are
bringing to the market
all right here hey folks yeah so here's
uh here's a demo Bob to kind of
illustrate what we mean by u you So I'm
going to launch this. This is a real
live demo. I'm working on off of my VPN
here. Okay. So things may be a little
slow. So this is our agentic platform.
Okay. Um and you can see this uh this
kind of shows you uh you know the
dashboard across you know the hierarchy
of the agents what I was alluding to
earlier. So these are all white coded
applications on the top right and then
you have this highle agents which then
in turn talk to the use case agents
right whether it is ITSM as an use case
AIO ops as a use case anomaly prediction
right the digital sur in turn talk to
the tools and platform agents right
where a VPN health agent knows how to
talk to say the Cisco firewalls right or
the Wi-Fi tools right a root cause
analysis agent knows how to talk to a
Splunk Dina trace right and what have
you right and then on at the bottom you
see this this dynamic integrations
through our uh dynamic MCP server but
just to illustrate what I mean by
ancoded dashboard right here is an
example of network health dashboard okay
so this is a dashboard which is
interactive right and you can see it is
actually showing a disparate different
devices right so you can see 354 devices
devices downs plug indexes active issues
affected side and monitored platforms
are Juniper Mist, there is Mari, there's
catal catalyst center, there is NDFC,
there is thousand eye, Splunk, Cisco
FMC, uh there is service now. Okay. Uh
there are it's flagging all the critical
issues. It is showing the total
incidents. It is showing latest team
notifications. It is showing the VPN,
right? Uh it is showing affected sites
and so on and so forth. So this becomes
your kind of a single pane of glass,
right? So this is what we mean by you
don't have to get into that swivel chair
operations right so you have a single
pane of glass where we are able to get
almost all of that information for you
and these are interactive right so you
can say hey I want to double click on
this right say uh and you can get to the
next level right so for example here's a
catalyst center right you want to double
click on this and you can make and
change this on the fly it's no longer
you know another week and and and a
month to develop a dashboard, get it
permitted, uh you know, get all the
right permissions and so on and so
forth, right? So, you're doing this on
the fly. The second thing I wanted to
show you was how we actually create
these dashboards, right?
So, uh bear with me, right? So, this is
what you know what we call uh WOPS,
right? So, these are all the all the
dashboards which are created. Okay? And
you can preview them, you know, you can
share this with somebody else, right? So
this is the other governance part what I
was telling you about Bob right so now
we have made this course uh the AI
coding assistance whether it is so right
now we support uh cloud code we support
codeex we support a cursor right uh we
support uh you know um uh Google
anti-gravity and there are two which are
more closely integrated one is open code
and Bob IBM Bob and why did we do that
right see because uh you know each of
these tools need a license so some of
the operational folks came back saying
that hey we don't want to spend on those
licenses right so for them we are using
an open source version which is equally
good enough right and embedded in the
platform so you don't have to use
another interface but here you can see
you know so this is an AI summary which
which it has generated for this
particular dashboard right what was the
action what were the changes right what
were the streams used you have all the
artifacts around this right and then you
can look at the preview of this
dashboard right so This is a dashboard
right or you can open this. Okay. So
this is our landing area. So once you
have generated that code right the code
lands into this landing area. You can
inspect the output. You can actually
test it to the to to your liking right
um and so on and so forth. And you can
see there are multitude of this um you
know um dashboard. This is AI
observability dashboard
right. So so this is what we mean by
wipe coded dashboards. Okay. Uh
hopefully it's it's loading on my VPN.
So we'll come back to this right in the
meantime. I I'll show you you know how
this all all works around. So in my uh
this is my cursor environment right um
right uh this is my cursor environment
and uh the the only prompt what I've
given to it is you know uh create a
dashboard to plot time series graph of
UDP syslo injection right so this is a p
stream and it has gone and it has
actually worked for almost 2 minutes and
47 seconds it has looked at the
dashboards it has looked at all the data
sources it has access to okay And um it
has actually come back and said hey to
deploy the agent use this to push to the
landing zone. So only when I execute
that command the push is succeeding now
right and now this dashboards get
created right. So this is this is cursor
environment right another uh this I have
given it is hey list every pream
available to me in my environment. So it
it knows how to go and query because you
know we have provided it the grounding
as to how to talk to our platform and
how to get that grounded data right so
it is saying hey there are about 463 P
streams okay and it is showing me all
the all the capabilities around what are
those P streams what are the data
available and so on and then this is the
platform where you can say so this is
Bob AI right so this is IBM's Bob it's
an again AI coding assistant which is
already embedded into the platform.
Okay. So you can see here and you can
say hey connect to the Bob right and you
can give it similarly whatever I was
showing you. Uh you can give the same
commands to it right
and so on. So uh you know so this is
actually an and um this I had I had
executed before right. So generate a
dashboard right. So fabrics via
artifacts it it generated that
particular dashboard. Okay. Um so this
is kind of the power of what we mean by
you know uh another thing I wanted to
show you if time permits is um you know
so this is open code right so again um
uh a simple simple kind of an prompt
okay so generate a dashboard for pstream
fabrics vx artifacts right so this is
again built in into the platform okay uh
and then it will ask you some questions
if it has to right and then you know you
can eventually push this into the system
so this is how you use different kind of
coding assistance right uh and tools. Uh
let me see if I have anything more to
show. So there is also an data
exploratory uh agent what we provide
right. So you can explore the data
before you want to start doing this
right. So it goes and actually looks at
the preams right. So you can choose a P
stream by name. Okay, say you want to
look at uh u CD uh let's look at net
network devices interface, right? And it
will actually show you that data set
before you actually, you know, decide to
uh Okay. Well, let's look at another
one.
[clears throat]
So yeah, I mean while it is doing this,
so you can see the data, right? And now
you can actually set up right. Another
thing I wanted to show you was you know
wipe coding right. So these are some of
the dashboards right. So this is
something which I have done myself. So
my dashboards these are our development
guys are doing this right. So say if you
want to look at AWS right EC2 capacity.
So it will show you the AWS EC2 capacity
right and then you know here itself you
can look at hey I want to test this
using test cases or I want to review the
code right so this is the other layer of
governance where now you are making this
AI coding assistance enterprise ready
right you're making them you know that's
what we mean by governs okay
>> um so and then this is the AI summary
right so share dashboard you can share
it with whoever you want to and so on
and so forth. So that was a quick
preview. Um Bob, right? Uh but happy to
kind of talk more at splunk.com. Um
okay, so I'll stop my sharing here.
>> Yeah. No, that was that was great. I
think it gives people a real idea of
just how quickly you can go and create
those those dashboards, how you're able
to test and validate them out and then
actually get real results that will help
you operate your environment. So I I
think that was great. And I think for me
I mean the the broader takeaway is that
agentic operations it doesn't simply
mean adding another co-pilot on top of
another dashboard right to create
meaningful
operational value right those agents
need the trusted context it needs that
cross-domain reach there's got to be
clear governance and a practical path
for humans to remain in in control of
this which I think you you've put that
together so I mean your approach is
designed to help operations team move
from
manual correlation and reactive
troubleshooting into more of a a curated
agent-driven workflows across all the
tools that they already use. And so I
think you know the proof point for
enterprise buyers will be how quickly
the model can deliver measurable
outcomes in production while preserving
all the controls required for
reliability for security and cost
management.
>> Yeah. No absolutely absolutely right.
Right. So our as as we began this
program right so our vision around and
successful wops operation are there are
three pillars to this right so the first
is you got to have you know the right
model for the right task obviously for
sovereign AI but also for the economics
uh the efficiency right and and um
essentially the performance and the
accuracy of it right so that's kind of
the first pillar you either use an SLM
which is domain specific or foundational
model where they
relatively they are applicable. The
second thing is a good harness right. So
this is where the agent tops capability
what we've been talking becomes
paramount right. So this is an platform
uh which has all the bells and whistles
right our own observability
explanability we have our own eval
modules we can also use other eval
platforms like whether it be ARS from
Detrace or Galio from Cisco right uh and
that harness needs to be able to be open
on the on the bot on the top right where
we could use any AI coding assistant it
needs to be open in the bottom where it
it can interface with any data source
right so that's kind of the second
important requirement and the third
important requirement is what we call
tokenization right so because as I keep
saying not all harnesses are are created
equal so the optimization you put in to
be able to save the tokens right because
you and also the guardress right so you
don't want a rogue agent you know
consuming all your budget on all your
tokens so we have phops built in into
the platform so uh so those are the
three capabilities or three pillars what
I feel are absolutely paramount account
for an successful WB ops capability.
>> Awesome. Well, I think that's a great
way to wrap up the the video with those
three points. Shalash, thanks again for
for joining us on this network angle.
Appreciate you being here.
>> Yeah, thank you Bob and see you guys at
Splunkcon. Uh as Bob said uh you know in
Denver uh in two weeks uh in booth we
are in the ISV platform zone and come
talk to us and see us.
>> Yeah, absolutely. So, I'm Bob La Liberte
from the Cube Research. Thanks for
watching. And as Shalles mentioned, if
you want more information on Fabrics AI
or to get a more in-depth demo, stop by
their booth. It's uh 011 at the
splunk.com
uh conference going on in Colorado from
September 14th to the 17th. Or please
visit their website.
