Building an AI proof of concept today is surprisingly easy. With the right tools and platforms, you can get something working in no time.
But turning that PoC into a production system is where the real work begins.
Suddenly, it’s about privacy, scalability, reliability, cost, and automation. Tools that worked fine in a prototype start to show their limits.
In this talk, I’ll walk through what to consider in that transition based on a ‘how-not-to’ and how to move from a quick demo to a robust, scalable AI solution.
I want to talk about the differences between traditional (VMware) and cloud-native (Kubevirt) virtualization. In doing so, I want to show the WoW, the skills, the use case, and possibly the actual implementation. I especially want to give our VMware people a behind-the-scenes look, as this is often still a blind spot.
This is not a session to convince people of KubeVirt, but primarily to show how cool it is in a Cloud-Native environment.
Internally or at customers, we hit the same wall while developing or vibecoding apps with AI components: assembling model serving, MCP and Agent gateways, retrieval, guardrails — months of platform work while AI itself moves weekly. The ITQ AI Use Case Factory is our out-of-the-box solution that clears that wall once, enabling developers to ship apps with Private AI features in a day, not a quarter.
Maxime opens the hood for an honest tour: what’s inside, what we dropped, and what we’d build differently.
Security and Compliance does not always require endless spreadsheets, PDFs, Docs and manual tasks. In this session we explore how the MITRE Security Automation Framework (SAF) can support use cases which require a standardized, automated compliance pipeline. An approach to be able to scale with the infrastructure and remove human errors.
We will walk you through a use case auditing an environment which needs to fulfill special security requirements by extending VMware DISA STIG compliance checks.
You will be introduced to a framework built on open source tooling.
Your takeaways: - Understanding of MITRE SAF - How to extend existing STIG profiles - A live demo of a framework built on open source toolsets
