In this episode of Cloud Dialogues, Georgia and Matt are joined by Amit from OpenOps for a deep (and refreshingly honest) dive into the state of cloud automation today—and where it's heading next.
We kick things off with a look at the latest industry news:
Huawei gears up to produce its own AI chips in response to ongoing tariff challenges
Microsoft and Amazon hit pause on data center expansion due to power constraints
And yes… humanoid robots just ran a half-marathon in China (because why not?)
Then we shift gears into automation. Amit brings a wealth of experience—from Microsoft to cybersecurity to autonomous vehicles—and shares sharp, real-world insights on what it actually takes to build a sustainable automation strategy in the cloud.
🔍 Topics We Cover:The journey from visibility → orchestration → automation
Why “human-in-the-loop” automation is often the safest bet
How risk appetite should drive your automation roadmap
Why not automating can cost you more than you think—especially in cloud security and efficiency
The growing role of AI in automation (and why it still needs a chaperone)
💡 Amit reminds us that while the dream of fully autonomous cloud ops is on the horizon, we’re not quite there yet—and human oversight remains as crucial as ever.
Whether you're early in your automation journey or deep in fine-tuning, there’s something in this episode for every cloud leader.
