Have you noticed AI recently? Yeah, us too. Generative AI is wreaking havoc on the software status quo, and that includes licensing, and that generates … opinions. Sentry has a long history of having opinions about software licensing. We started life as an unlicensed side project in 2008, then went through BSD, to BSL, to writing our own license, FSL.

Artificial intelligence recently took a major leap from “saying” to “doing.” Instead of simple back-and-forth chats, we’re now allowing automated AI processes to take action on our behalf—from responding to emails to building and deploying complete applications. This shift from “assistant” to “actor” can make applications more capable, but it also creates additional failure modes.

For years, our annual State of Digital Operations report has been the industry benchmark for understanding how organizations manage incidents, build resilience, and evolve their operational practices. Each year, we survey hundreds of business and operations leaders worldwide to capture the challenges, priorities, and emerging practices shaping digital operations.

This blog is based on the webinar, “AI panel: The next wave of AI technology”. You can watch the full recording by clicking here! The pace of AI innovation is reshaping research, business, and everyday life. However, as breakthroughs in Large Language Models (LLMs) and high-performance computing accelerate, they bring new technical challenges around scale, efficiency, and reliability.

For decades, telecom network operations have depended on traditional OSS tools – complex, services-heavy platforms that take years to modernize and even longer to deliver measurable business impact. This year at MWC, the leading OSS vendors showcased a variety of new AI extensions for their portfolios and marketed them as the fastest path to autonomous network operations. They are not.

Modern IT teams are experimenting with AI agents. But individual agents, working in isolation are not enough. To truly achieve Agentic IT Operations, organisations need a platform — one that coordinates, governs, and contextualises AI-driven actions across the entire IT landscape. That’s where Interlink Software comes in.

The world is generating data at a pace that defies the human ability to draw insights and comprehend. By 2028, we’ll reach almost 400 zettabytes of global data—with over 55% of it coming from machines talking to machines. For enterprises, this isn’t just a storage problem; it’s an existential challenge.
