Agentic Platform Engineering Implementation - Outshift by Cisco is redefining platform engineering with agentic platform engineering, aiming to automate workflows and allow platform engineers to focus on high-value work [1][2] - The company built Jarvis, a genai-powered multi-agentic system, to automate tasks and improve efficiency [2] - Langraph, combined with Langsmith's observability tools, enables debugging agentic applications and improving reasoning capabilities at scale [6] Efficiency Improvement - Implementing Jarvis allows developers to self-service through genai-powered automation, eliminating manual toil [4] - CI/CD pipeline setup time reduced from a week to less than an hour [7] - Resource provisioning time (e.g., S3 buckets, EC2 instances, access keys) reduced from half a day to nearly instantaneous [7] - The company has eliminated unnecessary back and forth between developers and SREs [7] Workflow Transformation - The company shifted from traditional automation to agentic reasoning-based workflows by adopting Langraph [5] - Developers interact with Jarvis for platform-related questions and configurations, retrieving information autonomously [8] - The new system allows the company to handle a higher volume of requests with the same team while reducing burnout [8] Technology Evaluation - Langraph's tight integration with Langsmith, especially for debugging and evaluations, is a significant advantage [9] - The company found Langraph to be superior compared to other agentic solutions or custom-built alternatives [9]
