Most of what people mean when they ask "how does this actually work" comes down to three words used precisely: workflow, run, and gate. This is what each one is, and how they fit together.

This isn't a teardown. This stack is a genuinely reasonable way to start. An AI-first editor handles day-to-day writing. A terminal-based coding agent takes on tasks that need more autonomy: a full feature, a migration, a stubborn bug. A few scripts connect the pieces, trigger a run, and post a result somewhere. An observability tool checks what happened after the fact. Every part of that is a real, capable tool. For the first few months, on a small team, it works.

The model your team relies on today is unlikely to be the one you're relying on a year from now. If your team's process for shipping AI-assisted code is built around a specific model, coding assistant, or a vendor's take on an autonomous agent, you are not building infrastructure. You are building something you will tear out and rebuild the next time the leaderboard shifts.

Your engineers have agents running. Not one agent, but several, spread across the team. Some run in a terminal on a laptop, some are wired into your CI jobs, and some live inside whatever coding tool each person prefers. Each one got set up separately, by whoever needed it, in whatever way worked that week. That is the state most teams are in right now. Code stopped being the slow part a while ago.

Somewhere in the last year, your team's code output went up. Pull requests are opened faster. The backlog of small fixes and routine changes started clearing quicker than it used to. If delivery still feels roughly as slow as it did before, that's what happens when you speed up one part of a process without touching anything downstream of it.

At some point this year, you likely approved a request to expand AI coding tool access across the team. The pitch was straightforward: engineers write code faster, the team ships more, the investment pays for itself. The first half happened. Engineers are writing code faster. If you're now being asked whether the investment paid off, and you're finding the honest answer is more complicated than a yes, you are not alone, and you have not been sold something broken.

Several platforms now ship agents capable of investigating problems, proposing fixes, and deploying, with real permission models and sandboxing behind them. This is a genuine engineering achievement, not just a demo.

Two Upsun Cloud customers, two very different starting points. Easypara needed to stop losing revenue to outages. ROLLIN needed to stop losing time to manual compliance checks on regulated client work. Here's how each one solved it.

Upsun Dispatch is generally available to the public as of today. Our previous article explains what it is and why we built it. This round, we take you into the details of how it works, the primitives it consists of, and the functionality available right away. You'll also get a glimpse of our roadmap at the end of the article.

Most of what runs on a modern platform is built to stay up. Applications serve requests, workers process queues, and managed services keep databases and caches available around the clock. But a meaningful share of the real work does not fit that always-on shape.

Most teams collect the profiles and traffic data that explain a slowdown. Almost nobody has time to read it before users notice. In this Product Highlights conversation, Sylvain Guittard, Senior Director of Product at Upsun who leads the team behind the Upsun console and CLI, breaks down the Upsun Cloud Performance Agent, the first background agent running on Upsun Cloud. His take: "We monitor everything, we feed that into an agent, and the agent will be capable of finding what the bottlenecks are in your application. And on top of it, it gives you a patch, or a way to fix it." We get into.

Anyone can claim an AI agent will fix your performance problems. This demo shows exactly what it looks at and what it hands back. In this Product Highlights conversation, Sylvain Guittard, Senior Director of Product at Upsun who leads the team behind the Upsun console and CLI, runs the Upsun Cloud Performance Agent live on a demo project. His take: "You have a patch that is already available, and a recommendation, so you can see if it fits or not to your context." We get into.

AI models got good enough that teams want to let them loose on the backlog. Then somebody asks who approved that change, what is waiting on a decision, and what the agent actually cost. Upsun Dispatch gives your team and your agents a shared place to work together. It runs on the repository you already have, connects to the tools your team already uses, and keeps a person on the decisions that matter.

A preview link with an empty database tells you almost nothing about a content-managed site. Most teams find that out the expensive way, in front of a client. In this Product Highlights conversation, Andrew Kester, a senior cloud support engineer at Upsun whose team handles everything from product questions to sites under active attack, twenty four hours a day, every day of the year, breaks down why cloning services and data into every environment is the feature he would have paid for at his old agency job. His take: "You click a button. We clone your services. We clone the data." We get into.

Most teams are paying for a container that stays awake all week to run one job on Friday. Task containers are the fix: they spin up on an API call, run exactly one command, then remove themselves. In this Product Highlights conversation, Corey Dockendorf, a senior solutions architect at Upsun with most of 25 years in tech behind him and five at the company, breaks down how ephemeral task containers cut idle spend and give AI agents production context without production access. His take: "They spin up when they're triggered directly by an API call.

AI agents don't need a server sitting there while they wait for the next prompt. They need infrastructure that shows up, does the job, and disappears. In this Product Highlights conversation, Nicolas Gommenginger, director of product at Upsun with more than four years leading the platform's core functionality, breaks down Upsun's newest primitive: task containers. His take: "What really triggered us to go ahead and implement it is the rise of AI agents, because tasks are something ideal for running them." We get into.

Everyone on the team has good coding agents. That is not what made the team fast. The shared repo, the shared docs, and a glossary nobody is allowed to drift from did more than any model choice. In this Product Highlights conversation, Patrick Dawkins, a principal engineer at Upsun who is building Upsun Dispatch under a hard deadline, explains what his team changed to sustain that pace. His take: "As well as the team all having access to the same things and the same vocabulary, all the agents also have access to those docs.".

AI tools made individual developers faster. Teams still aren't shipping more product. That gap is the whole reason Upsun Dispatch exists. In this Product Highlights conversation, Kateryna Dvornichenko, a product manager at Upsun who has spent the past several months building Upsun Dispatch, explains why the tooling market got the unit wrong. Her take: "Making software is a team sport." We get into.

AI helped your engineers ship more code. It didn't help your team ship more product. So where did the bottleneck actually go? In this Product Highlights conversation, Patrick—a principal engineer at Upsun with twelve years building back-end APIs in Go—breaks down what changed once AI agents entered the workflow. His take: "The code isn't really a problem anymore. We can write that really fast. Everything else is still a bit behind the code." We get into.

Leverage AI coding assistants like Claude to develop your application with Upsun. This video goes through the Upsun development flow from cloning your production environment to testing your new code with read data and merging into production. The core task is to add a "Total Revenue" card to an e-commerce dashboard. We will show how a single, complex natural language prompt can orchestrate the entire development lifecycle.
