Exploring Next — Ep 344 w/ Justy & Cody — Definity embeds agents inside Spark pipelines to catch failures before they reach agentic AI systems
Episode 344 of Exploring Next takes a skeptical look at Definity putting agents inside Spark and dbt execution so teams can catch stale inputs, skew, memory pressure, and bad downstream writes during a run instead of after the damage is done. Cody likes the placement but questions how much autonomy teams will really allow in production. Justy argues the buyer story is strong for data teams supporting AI systems and expensive on-prem workloads where wasted runs hurt immediately.
