Bruno Borges discusses a paradigm shift in performance management: moving from manual tuning to automated SRE agents. He explains how to leverage the USE and jPDM methodologies alongside LLMs to reduce MTTR from hours to seconds. By utilizing MCP tools for real-time diagnostics and memory dump analysis, he shares how engineering leaders can scale systems while meeting strict objectives.
