Cruise to the Future: Role of Developers in the AI and Cloud Era

About the Session
As AI and cloud technologies rapidly evolve, developers face a pivotal moment: Will AI subsume all business logic, and will cloud platforms abstract away execution environments, rendering traditional development obsolete? This session argues the contrary—highlighting how these advancements are not threats but catalysts for transformation.
We will explore how this era of rapid technological transformation, driven by the rise of AI and the pervasiveness of cloud platforms, is reshaping the role of developers. Together, we’ll uncover how these shifts are not diminishing the relevance of traditional development skills, but rather elevating them. Developers have a unique opportunity to redefine their impact, adapt to new paradigms, and remain central to innovation in an AI-first, cloud-native world.
Attendees will walk away with a wealth of practical insights into the evolving developer toolkit, covering emerging AI frameworks, deployment models, performance optimization, diagnostics, and security for AI features. We'll also explore how to build robust, scalable cloud infrastructure tailored for AI workloads, and how these technologies can enhance user experiences across applications.
