Hot off the presses in model releases - we will explore the Qwen3-30b-a3b MoE model running on the Tanzu Platform. Early testing shows it performs exceptionally well on somewhat older enterprise-grade server CPUs (aka Cascade Lake). This show will provide some insights on how enterprises can use their existing server infrastructure to start their intelligent application modernization efforts.

Cote will join the show to discuss his latest experiences in the vibe coding scene and recap the latest and greatest updates on VMware Tanzu strategy!

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!
