What is this?
Cloud-native AI SaaS builds AgentNest on containers, managed services, and twelve-factor config — no pet VMs. Scale, deploy, and observe via Kubernetes and Azure PaaS primitives.
Why should you care?
Investors and customers expect elastic SaaS that survives node loss and deploys daily without downtime.
See it live — copy this example
Paste into an ASP.NET Core 8+ / AgentNest project, then run with dotnet run (set your API keys in user-secrets).
// helm/agentnest/values.yaml excerpt
api:
replicaCount: 3
autoscaling:
enabled: true
minReplicas: 3
maxReplicas: 20
metrics:
- type: Pods
pods:
metric:
name: agentnest_active_streams
target:
type: AverageValue
averageValue: "50"
What happened?
- Helm values configure API autoscaling on custom metric active streams — cloud-native response to CRM chat load.
- Follow the steps below — typing the code yourself is the fastest way to learn.
Practice next
- Package AgentNest as Helm chart with api, worker, redis subcharts.
- Use External Secrets Operator for Key Vault sync.
- Deploy via Argo CD GitOps from main branch.
- Move embed workers to KEDA ScaledJob.
- Add service mesh mTLS between api and worker namespaces.
Remember
AgentNest SaaS runs on K8s with Helm and GitOps. Scale on custom AI metrics, not CPU alone. Externalize state to Redis, Postgres, Service Bus.
Daily deploy cadence
Product ships agent fixes daily to 300 tenants.
Outcome: GitOps rolling updates with eval gate; zero tenant-visible downtime.
