Rather than manually sifting through logs and metrics, engineers can delegate repetitive investigative tasks to autonomous agents that work concurrently and consistently. Key use cases include alert triage and summarization, performance debugging, and democratizing observability data so non-SRE stakeholders can query systems in plain language. Elastic's Principal Solutions Architect Thaddeus Walsh predicts that within 24 months, agents will drive most RCA investigations with minimal human oversight. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
