A lot of Azure programmes can answer one question pretty quickly: what did we deploy?

• Landing zone. Done.
• Workloads migrated. Done.
• Monitoring enabled. Done.
• Tags and budgets configured. Done.
• Security baseline applied. Done.

Those are all useful things, and I am not downplaying them. They are part of getting cloud adoption right. But they are not the whole story.

The harder question is usually this one:

What is measurably better because we adopted Azure?

That is where the conversation shifts from cloud adoption to value realisation.

I've spent the last year building AI agent workflows for Azure projects, and I kept running into the same problem. The agents were useful in isolation - writing code, reviewing PRs, checking security - but there was no structure connecting them. No governance. No audit trail. No one could tell me who approved what and why.

So I built some Teams, using the Oh My OpenAgent Team Mode using the opensource OpenCode harness.

The idea is simple: five phases, each with a dedicated team of AI agents, and an Architecture Review Board (ARB) gate between them. The gate has real voters, real quorum rules, and a real escalation path when things deadlock. Every decision gets committed as a Markdown file - essentially governance as code.

And because I believe in eating your own dog food, I used OMO Teams to build the OMO Teams Quickstart. This post walks through what happened.

Today, we will look at KubeBuddy.

The tag line of KubeBuddy is:

Kubernetes says your cluster is healthy. It’s probably not.

Today, we are going to look at Codespace Secrets.

GitHub Codespaces secrets are environment variables that are securely stored in your GitHub account and made available to your Codespace environment. They help you manage sensitive information without hardcoding it in your repository.

Today, we are going to take a look at something a little different. We are going to talk about workload criticality, methods to assess how critical your workload is, and the ramifications of that criticality in terms of the Cloud.
