In “How AI is transforming engineering workflows” featured in Platform Engineering, Nathan Eddy explores how AI is revolutionizing platform engineering, helping to automate processes like CI/CD and system observability. He also discusses how best to balance automation with human inputs to ensure security, reliability and operational efficiency.
The article features contributions from Nandakumar (Nanda) Sivaraman, Vice President of Engineering at Bridgenext, throughout where he shares his thoughts on the benefits and concerns of AI intervention. “AI-powered solutions analyze performance patterns, automatically adjust pipeline settings, and identify potential issues before they become critical failures,” he said. However, while AI certainly offers efficiency gains, Nanda added that it must be balanced with human oversight to ensure the best results, specifically saying that “Frequent audits, performance monitoring, and governance frameworks ensure AI models remain aligned with business needs.”
