How Java Is Evolving for Enterprise AI: A Talk by Fábio Velloso
A technical recap of Fábio Velloso’s talk at Avalia Tech Forum 2026, exploring how Java supports enterprise AI and what monitoring reveals about model behaviour in production.
What delivery data tells you before you buy a software company
How hard will it be to change the software once you own it? Delivery history helps investors assess the waiting time, rework and dependence on key people that can affect a company’s ability to execute after an acquisition.
Software Engineering with AI Agents: A Reality Check
AI agents are changing how software is built, but faster development brings new questions around trust, technical debt and understanding what is being created. Olivier Liechti explores what engineering teams need to rethink as AI becomes part of the software development lifecycle.
A company can look efficient until you look at the technology underneath it.
In December 2022, Southwest hit every operational target right up to the moment its technology couldn't absorb the shock. The weakness never showed up in the numbers the company tracked, until it did, at a cost of more than a billion dollars. This is the case for finding hidden technology risk on purpose, before the business depends on it.
Delivery Quality as an Early Warning System
Delivery problems usually become visible to management after they have already been developing for some time. Delivery data can show the deterioration earlier, while teams are still shipping and there is still time to react.
How to Trace Technology Spend to Business Objectives
The way most organisations track technology spending tells you where the money went but not what it was for. And that second question is the one that actually matters for decisions.
The Metrics Gap Between Engineering and the Business
Teams can measure every stage of software delivery and still not know if the business is getting value. Why activity isn't outcome, and how to connect them.
Why Technology Reporting Breaks at the Board Level
Why technology reporting fails at board level, how operational metrics obscure business impact, and what boards need to make better investment and risk decisions.
Your work speaks engineering. The board speaks money.
You do the work — but can you prove its business value to the board? How Avalia's DX Hub helps CTOs translate engineering into the language of money.
The Rise of DX and LinearB Points to a Bigger Engineering Question
Engineering intelligence platforms make developer productivity more visible. The next challenge is connecting those insights to business priorities and decisions.
