“I need an AI model” is a request - not a spec, not a service, and not an operating model. This episode shows how platform engineers translate that ambiguity into standardized, self-serve offerings via a service marketplace. We cover t‑shirt sized plans, working with AI/domain teams, and automating the approvals and guardrails so devs can bind AI capabilities to apps without a ticket chain.
Here's how to get AI setup in your platform 👉 https://TryTanzu.ai.
Tanzu Catsup is a weekly conversation about platform engineering, cloud-native operations, and building software in large organizations. We follow the work wherever it actually leads.
Check us out Tuesdays at 10am US Eastern/4pm Amsterdam time!
