Bring Order to the Wild West of AI

The AI era feels like the Wild West: full of opportunities but also full of dangers. At The API Frontier, you’ll learn how to turn chaos into order—by connecting Agentic AI with enterprise APIs, applying modern platform practices, and using AI gateways for security. Discover how to accelerate innovation, minimize risks, and build a scalable, secure AI ecosystem—creative, practical, and future-proof.

Bring Order to the Wild West of AI

Mastering Agentic AI & MCP

In this event, you’ll learn how to use Agentic AI and MCP effectively—and why enterprise APIs are the critical key to real AI innovation. You’ll discover how to develop vertical AI agents tailored to your industry that operate with precision, efficiency, and impact. You’ll also gain practical insights into Platform Engineering 2025, including governance, developer portals, CI/CD automation, and rolling out AI at the platform level. Finally, we’ll show you how AI gateways act as the “sheriff” to protect your AI APIs, prevent key sprawl, ensure compliance, and control costs efficiently.

Program

10:15 – 11:00 | Unlocking Agentic AI: Why Enterprise APIs & MCP Are the Missing Link to AI Innovation | Matthias Biehl

Across industries, companies are striving to harness Agentic AI for intelligent automation, customer experiences, and groundbreaking digital products. But delivering AI that truly adds value takes more than advanced models—it requires seamless access to enterprise data and systems.

The real key to success lies in the convergence of Agentic AI and a composable enterprise architecture powered by APIs and MCP.

AI doesn’t just need any data—it needs your enterprise data. Yet that data is scattered across mainframes, legacy systems, and SaaS applications, making a fragmented landscape often the biggest barrier to successful AI implementation. Learn how to leverage your existing enterprise APIs to supercharge your AI projects.

Step into the future of API-driven ecosystems with vertical AI agents. In this session, you’ll learn how AI is transforming the API landscape, moving beyond generic solutions toward precision-driven vertical agents tailored to your industry. Discover how these agents unlock unprecedented efficiency, deliver targeted insights, and fuel innovation in finance, healthcare, and more. Take away the insights you need to turn cutting-edge AI advancements into actionable strategies that delight customers and dominate your market.

An exploration of the latest trends in platform engineering: building platform teams, creating shared resources, supporting developer teams, defining and enforcing standards, automated CI/CD deployment pipelines, internal developer portals, data and API governance, the adoption and impact of AI, and metrics for developer productivity. We’ll cover the key topics and the evolution of best practices shaping platform engineering.

The AI industry is booming, with companies rapidly deploying applications built on generative AI models—from chatbots and virtual assistants to advanced data analytics tools. But this “Wild West” of AI model API integration comes with serious risks. Uncontrolled API key proliferation, the looming threat of prompt injection, growing concerns around privacy and compliance, and skyrocketing costs from unchecked token usage can quickly turn promising AI projects into liabilities or PR disasters.

How do you navigate this new frontier and bring order to the chaos? In this talk, you’ll learn how AI gateways serve as indispensable “sheriffs” for your AI integrations. Discover how these tools enable you to manage access securely, enforce robust governance policies, ensure compliance, and optimize your AI model API consumption. Learn to tame the Wild West of AI APIs—balancing innovation speed with the right safeguards.
