Your agent demo wowed the team. Shipping it is another story: it forgets users between sessions, you have no idea why it failed at 3 AM, it falls over at ten concurrent requests, and last month's bill was four times the estimate. The agent itself is fine. The problem is everything around it. This talk walks each piece: memory that survives a restart, a single secure entry point that turns your existing APIs into agent tools and handles their credentials, monitoring of every decision and token, scaling that absorbs spikes and drops to zero, and per-conversation budgets so cost never surprises you. You leave with a readiness checklist and a cost model that tells you the monthly bill before you ship.
