## Description

Agentic applications are here, and Docker is making agentic development real for every developer. In this keynote, learn how new enhancements to Docker Compose simplify the development of apps powered by models, agents, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP). 
We’ll highlight advancements that let you seamlessly move from local to cloud to production—while maintaining security by using approved tools, secrets, MCPs, and more. Plus, see live demos and hear from partners on how to integrate agentic apps into your existing developer stack
