| 9:40 AM - 10:15 AM | The next generation of enterprise orchestration: Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform in the agentic era The enterprise automation landscape is rapidly changing with the maturation and adoption of agentic AI, and if it hasn’t happened already, your organization will soon face a critical question: How can you leverage these new capabilities in concert with the trusted automations you already have in place? Join us as we share our vision for AAP as the trusted bridge to what will be the essential technology outcome of the agentic era: the seamless orchestration of automated workflows, AI-driven decisions, and human-in-the-loop governance. Along the way we'll address key questions around getting started, applying governance + guardrails, and how to orchestrate across automation silos. Discover how Red Hat Ansible will enable you to adopt agentic automation on your terms - and why we’re more confident than ever that the future belongs to the automators. |
