Architecting the right infrastructure for autonomous AI agents at scale
Akamai AI Summit
Oracle Park | San Francisco
November 10, 2026 | 12:00PM - 7:00PM
Your agents are only as good as the infrastructure they run on.
Your infrastructure wasn’t designed for agentic AI. It wasn’t built for real-time AI applications or the agents calling them, and it certainly wasn’t built for the real-time threats that come with AI.
Akamai’s AI Summit is focused on where inference runs, what it actually costs, and how agents stay under control. Keynotes and fireside chats for the people making the call. Hands-on labs for the people building it.

Announcing our special guest speaker:
Salim Ismail
Chairman, OpenExO | Best-Selling Author | Visionary and Podcaster
Salim will discuss how organizations must rethink intelligence, purpose, and autonomous execution to thrive in this new era.
Why attend?
What you’ll leave with:
- A clear answer on where your inference should run
- A security model built for agents, not bots
- A live teardown of a multi-modal AI application, courtesy of engineers from NVIDIA and Akamai
- What a millisecond is actually worth in conversion and in spend
- Insight into what agents working at machine speed do to the way your company is organized, from Salim Ismail
- Working code that you build, deploy, and stress test on real infrastructure before you leave
