Cloud Native Hyderabad July Meetup - AI x Observability
Welcome to another exciting edition of the Cloud Native Hyderabad Meetup!
This July, we are thrilled to collaborate with Broadcom to bring you a deeply technical, action-packed session focusing exclusively on AI and Cloud-Native Observability.
As GenAI stacks and autonomous AI agents transition into enterprise production environments, traditional application performance monitoring (APM) hits a wall. A green dashboard or an "HTTP 200 OK" status code no longer guarantees success; models can hallucinate, agents can get stuck in infinite retry loops, and infrastructure can bottleneck under vector-search latencies - all while failing silently.
In this meetup, we will bridge the gap between AI engineering and cloud-native platform engineering. Our expert speakers will dive deep into open-source tooling like OpenTelemetry, Langfuse, OpenLit, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP). You will learn how to turn raw LLM traces into actionable evaluation metrics, secure multi-tenant remote MCP servers, instrument complex multi-agent frameworks, and instantly correlate a failing AI prompt all the way down to a Kubernetes disk I/O throttle.
Whether you are an AI engineer trying to figure out if your LLM is actually working, or a DevOps/Platform engineer tasked with keeping GenAI infrastructure stable and cost-effective, this meetup is for you. Come for the deep dives, stay for the speaker AMA, and network with fellow cloud-native enthusiasts!
