Late last year, startup Platform Engineering Labs made waves in the world of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) by introducing a new IaC platform, called Formae, available initially on Amazon Web Services. This week, Platform Engineering Labs‘ platform gets (beta) support from additional cloud platforms, including Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, and OVHcloud. The company has also released new AI-enhanced software for managing infrastructure tooling, called the Platform for Infrastructure Builders.
>When deployed strategically, agents can empower SREs to offload low-risk, toilsome tasks so they can focus on the most critical matters.
Agents in practice include:
* **Contextual Information:** Providing SREs with details from previously resolved incidents involving the same service, including responder notes.
* **Root Cause Analysis:** Suggesting potential origins of an issue and identifying recent configuration changes that might be responsible.
* **Automated Remediation:** Handling low-risk, well-defined issues without human intervention, with SRE review of after-action reports.
* **Diagnostic Suggestions:** Nudging SREs towards running specific diagnostics for partially understood incidents and supplying them automatically.
* **Runbook Generation:** Automatically creating and updating runbooks based on successful remediation steps, preventing recurring issues.

The Azure MCP Server implements the MCP specification to create a seamless connection between AI agents and Azure services. It allows agents to interact with various Azure services like AI Search, App Configuration, Cosmos DB, and more.
The article discusses how agentic LLMs can help users overcome the learning curve of the command line interface (CLI) by automating tasks and providing guidance. It explores tools like ShellGPT and Auto-GPT that leverage LLMs to interpret natural language instructions and execute corresponding CLI commands. The author argues that this approach can make the CLI more accessible and powerful, even for those unfamiliar with its intricacies.
This GitHub repository contains a collection of example files demonstrating various use cases and configurations for the llamafiles tools, including examples:
* **System Administration:** Scripts and configurations for Ubuntu, Raspberry Pi 5, and macOS.
* **LLM Interaction:** Examples of prompts and interactions with LLMs like Mixtral and Dolphin.
* **Text Processing:** Scripts for summarizing text, extracting information, and formatting output.
* **Development Tools:** Examples related to Git, Emacs, and other development tools.
* **Hardware Monitoring:** Scripts for monitoring GPU and NVMe drive status.
