Open source software powers the modern enterprise, but it can also introduce critical blind spots. 96% of organizations express major security concerns about their open source ecosystem. Dependency tracking and vulnerability management often remain fragmented across disparate tools and manual workflows, and AI has added additional complexity.

Join Canonical’s Aaron Whitehouse and RedMonk’s James Governor for an in-depth session as we unpack the findings from our global research report, The open source chain of trust. We will explore how leading organizations are moving beyond disjointed management to build a verifiable, automated, and secure software supply chain.

What you will learn

• Navigating open source security concerns: Explore strategies to manage different risk appetites across your infrastructure while balancing the emerging impact of AI tools on open source security.

• Breaking the patching bottleneck: Understand why 53% of organizations delay implementing critical patches, and how to automate patching to reduce operational downtime.

• The OS as control plane: See how building on the operating system as a strategic control plane can establish consistent governance across cloud, edge, and on-premise environments.

In this episode:

• Scott Tolinski of Syntax.fm puts up a great podcast about the mental health crisis nobody is talking about in AI
• Stripe acquires OpenRouter for $7 billion, while Ramp launches their own router
• Dev Ittycheria talks to Chamath about the build vs buy dynamics changing
• Omarchy Quattro is released, a desktop with AI at the center of personalization
• Google buys Spirit Airlines data for $10 million, should call Adam
• Wiz writes a blog post about a common vulnerability
• Vercel launches Fx, a minimal coding harness written in Zig, designed for embedding
• Dynatrace buys Arize, as observability expands into AI
• Soundslice adds a feature that AI hallucinated first
• Slack launches a coding agent
• Adam’s talk about software factories, and numbers about their performance

RedMonk will share industry insights on how developers and engineering leaders can stay ahead as agentic AI becomes part of everyday development work. The session will explore how teams can use agentic AI to move faster without sacrificing control, increasing risk, or losing confidence in large, complex codebases.

In this webinar you will:

• Gain practical guidance for applying agentic AI in day‑to‑day development, along with data and considerations to help engineering organizations set standards, evaluate tools and support teams working across complex systems.
• See how IBM Bob helps teams work across legacy and modern environments with strong context, practical guardrails, and developer control built in.

Rachel Stephens joins Ned Bellavance and Kyler Middleton on their podcast, Day Two DevOps, to discuss the state of DevOps and the impact of AI. They explore the distinction between developer productivity and development productivity, underlined by a DORA report finding that while AI dramatically boosts individual developer productivity, it often fails to improve overall development productivity. They also debate the necessity of a “human in the loop” to maintain software stability and organizational performance.
