Agentic AI's Impact on Technology Operating Models and Architecture
Agentic AI's impact on enterprise technology operating models and architecture (January 2025–April 17th 2026): what stays (API infrastructure, data governance, SDLC controls), what shifts (DevOps as the new control plane, testing and rollback at agent speed, dark-code and agentic tech-debt governance), and whether frontier models like Anthropic's Mythos become embedded in CI/CD pipelines for security, code review, and release control

Agentic RAG - Evolution, Challenges, and Decision Criteria
Agentic RAG between November 2025 and May 2026: how retrieval-augmented generation is shifting toward agent-driven architectures, the operational problems (token burn, context management, latency, reliability), information-organisation patterns such as context catalogues and semantic categorisation, parallels with traditional data warehousing (dimensions, measures, star schemas), the evolving RAG tooling landscape, and decision criteria for switching to pure agentic workflows.
