In this Azure Friday session, we walk through how to get started with Azure SRE Agent and demonstrate how agentic workflows can be applied to real operational scenarios—from help desk tickets to cost analysis and reporting and anything in between. The session starts with context engineering fundamentals, followed by a live demo that shows how memory, personalization, incident management and scheduled tasks come together to reduce operational toil. We wrap up by creating an SRE Agent from scratch and discussing consumption, limits, and best practices.
