How to build an AI agent for IBM i
Monday June 15, 2026 15:55 - 16:55 CEST
AI agents are quickly becoming a practical tool for automating workflows, assisting developers, and simplifying system administration. In this session, we will walk through how to build an effective AI agent specifically for IBM i.
We will start with high-level concepts, including what an AI agent is, how it differs from traditional automation, and what makes IBM i a unique and powerful environment for agent-based systems.
From there, we will cover concrete patterns, tips, and best practices for designing agents that can safely and reliably interact with IBM i resources such as the database.
The session will focus on real use cases, including system administration tasks like performance and security monitoring, as well as developer productivity workflows.
Throughout the presentation, we will demonstrate working agents in action, showing how these concepts translate into practical solutions that IBM i developers and administrators can start applying today.
