Corby and Kirti return to show how Cloud Foundry is the enterprise's Agentic AI platform of choice!

We will continue to explore the Model-Context Protocol (MCP), Spring AI, and GenAI on Tanzu Platform. Last but not least, we will provide some commentary on what can be achieved on CPUs vs. GPUs within the platform and what resources you may need to run your LLMs locally on Tanzu Platform. 

Let's take a test drive of the latest Open WebUI release (0.6.0), which introduces MCP support! We will dive deep into this and how to debug LLMs running on the Tanzu Platform. Don't miss the episode to as we will be showing tips and tricks for getting LLM function support, MCP, and one of the best GenAI frontends working on Cloud Foundry!

DMZ, Nishad, and Rajan will join the show this week to discuss how Team Tanzu proactively handles the ever-changing security landscape by implementing proactive practices to respond to and mitigate the CVE threat landscape.

We will also ask the team for their thoughts on wrapping security around the Model Context Protocol(MCP) as it continues to pick up steam!

We welcome special guests Chris Phillipson and Brian Kirkland to the show to discuss implementing continuous platform engineering with cf-kaizen and the rest of the cf-tool suite. 

Don't miss this episode to see how you can harness the power of agents to improve your overall platform operations and engineering.

We will have special guest Joey McDonald on the show to discuss his latest project, ConcourseGPT!

ConcourseGPT aims to tame the Beasts of CI/CD Infrastructure with AI-generated documentation! It solves the challenge of undocumented, complex Concourse pipelines with an AI-powered tool that generates comprehensive documentation for configurations that often remain untouched for months or years.

If you are using Concourse, this will be a must-watch episode!

We welcome Adib Saikali back to the show to continue covering his Zero to Hero class on Spring AI! We will also continue to show how easy it is to expand and empower Java developers on the platform using Spring AI to jumpstart intelligent app development using Cloud Foundry and our GenAI tile.

We continue our coverage on running Open-WebUI on Cloud Foundry! We will dig into what services we can tie in from the Cloud Foundry marketplace to expand our exploration of running GenAI apps and LLMs within your foundations. Last but not least, we will give a sneak peek at Nick's latest addition to his homelab.

We are kicking off our "How-To" mini-series with this episode! We will show a deep dive on deploying the popular open-webui application on Cloud Foundry! Open-WebUI is a great tool to explore and experiment with GenAI on your locally deployed LLMs running on the GenAI for Tanzu Platform tile. We will also deep dive into different model variants and inference engines such as Ollama and vLLM.
