Michael Forrester

Michael Forrester

Michael Forrester is a student, explorer, and educator working at the boundary between humanity and technology. Over 25+ years he's moved from CTO to IC across operations, AI, cloud, and platform engineering, with time at AWS, ThoughtWorks, Red Hat, Honeywell, and KodeKloud, where his training reached over a million engineers. He now leads AI-for-organizations work as a Principal Training Architect at Accenture LearnVantage. His current focus is agentic AI security: the CNCF platform stack most teams already run covers roughly 80% of what it takes to govern AI agents in production, and the remaining 20% — agent identity, input/output sanitization, and MCP tool-call governance — is where the real work sits. He speaks at KubeCon, CNCF events, and most recently AI Engineer World's Fair on Claude Code, MCP, and agent governance for platform engineers. Tools don't transform organizations. People do.

Alexander Chernov

Alexander Chernov

I design and deliver intelligent data and AI infrastructure, bridging principal-level engineering practice with peer-reviewed research and external technical leadership.

My work focuses on building reliable, governable, and observable systems for scientific and regulated environments—spanning agentic AI, data platforms, control planes, and emerging computational paradigms.

I am active across IEEE publications, conference presentations, technical writing, and open-source prototypes, translating research ideas into practical engineering approaches.

What I work on:

- Agentic AI infrastructure: semantic caching, control planes, lifecycle finite-state machines, and governed autonomy
- Security-critical patterns for autonomous and multi-agent systems
- Strategy and architecture for intelligent data services and Manufacturing Execution Systems
- Near-real-time telemetry, audit, provenance, and decision-record substrates across multi-terabyte environments
- Declarative policy, state, and intent expressed as code through custom resource models, GitOps, and control-plane patterns
- Technical mentorship and cross-functional influence across engineering, MLOps, SRE, and adjacent disciplines

I bring AIOps, MLOps, DevSecOps, and Site Reliability Engineering practices to systems that must remain reliable, explainable, and operable in regulated contexts.

My background spans distributed systems in high-reliability domains: reactive platforms in banking and finance, GxP-aligned pharmaceutical manufacturing systems, and industrial automation for semiconductor manufacturing.

Over 20 years experience in software engineering, mostly in the defence domain at Thales. The last few years of this were focused on transformation first to containers then Kubernetes.

After Thales I worked on the cloud native team at Couchbase, working on their Golang-based Kubernetes operator. This included producing a custom Fluent Bit deployment for observability needs.

Calyptia (founded by the Fluent maintainers) then approached me to come work with them building out observability products before we were successfully acquired by Chronosphere. I then led the migration of all our infrastructure and SOC2 compliance before Chronosphere was again successfully acquired by Palo Alto. During this period I also became a core maintainer of the CNCF graduated Fluent project, primarily working on Fluent Bit.

I am now running an OSS consultancy for observability called Telemetry Forge leveraging our knowledge as well as working with customers in the defence domain again.
