Part of Fedora Hatch Day at SCaLE 23x. Presented by David Duncan.

The presentation will take place in Room 208 on Friday, March 6, 2026 - 12:30 PST to 13:30 PST.

As AI agents become more prevalent in enterprise environments, Linux systems need architectural patterns that provide isolation, security, and efficient resource management. This session explores an approach using BTRFS subvolumes combined with dedicated service accounts to build secure, isolated environments for autonomous AI agents in enterprise deployment.

What we will explore:

• Best Practices and Linux OS optimizations for AI agent workloads
• BTRFS subvolume strategies for targeted differential updates to LLMs trained remotely, but used locally
• Service account security patterns for autonomous systems
• Edge deployment considerations that combine these strategies.
• Practical implementation examples from Fedora OS environments
