About this session
Everything your team already knows about queues, retries, idempotency and backpressure applies directly to agent orchestration. A tour of production multi-agent failures and the boring distributed-systems fixes that solved each one.
Speaker
Yuki Tanaka
Head of Platform, Kitsune Cloud
Yuki built Kitsune's multi-region control plane and now leads the team that keeps it boring. Before that: eight years of distributed databases and one very educational New Year's Eve outage.
