All things Agentic

Content, consulting, and training

Hi! I’m Michael Levan

I focus on all things when it comes to Agentic AI, MCP, Security, and how it all fits into production environments. My primary focus in this area has been around multi-agent, AI security (at the agent and gateway level), and observability as that’s where organizations are currently focused, but with how fast AI changes, I’m always moving with it.

My goal is to translate technical complexity into practical value. I'm a seasoned engineer, consultant, trainer, and content creator working with startups and enterprises around the globe.

I'm a Microsoft MVP (Azure), 4x published author, podcast host, international public speaker, CNCF Ambassador, and was part of the Kubernetes v1.28/v1.31 Release Team.

I enjoy talking to everyone about anything in the AI- realm, so feel free to reach out and let’s connect!

Writing and viideos

My content consists of blogs/articles/whitepapers and videos. I do love creating videos, but very rarely can you truly dive deep into a topic in a video as the standard is “no more than 6-7 minutes long”. Because of that, the majority of my long-form content is typically written.

Within my writing, I focus on all things Agentic, AI, MCP, AI security, and how it fits into current workflows within organizations (my latest book is on Platform Engineering for AI). You can check out my blog via the button on the top of this page.

My videos are up on YouTube @CloudDevEngineering and you can find various pieces of content that helps anyone on an AI journey.

Podcasts and public speaking

Although I’m an introvert in day-to-day life, when I’m on stage, it’s hard to get me to shut up :). Same rule applies to podcasts. Talking about everything and anything in the tech realm from Agentic AI to AIOps to monitoring and observability and everything in between gets me fired up.

It’s truly an amazing thing to be in front of a crowd of people or on a podcast talking about what I love doing.
