In 2025, the integration of agentic AI applications into business workflows has become a mainstream practice, with over half of surveyed professionals already using AI agents in production, primarily for research and summarization tasks. Despite their growing adoption, deploying AI agents in complex industrial environments remains challenging due to legacy IT systems and industrial protocols, requiring robust governance and security measures. XMPro's partnership with MongoDB provides a solution for these challenges by offering APEX AI, a low-code platform that facilitates the management of AI agents in industrial settings. This collaboration enables seamless data acquisition and advanced analytics, boosting operational efficiency and safety. MongoDB Atlas supports APEX AI with flexible data storage, ensuring high availability and robust security, while its Vector Search capabilities enhance AI agents' accuracy and response times. Additionally, MongoDB's impact extends to the financial sector, exemplified by VPBank's successful transition to a microservices architecture powered by MongoDB, which enhanced its OpenAPI platform's flexibility, scalability, and performance. Concurrently, MongoDB announced a leadership transition with Chirantan “CJ” Desai set to succeed Dev Ittycheria as CEO, marking a strategic shift aimed at guiding the company through its next phase of growth, capitalizing on the rise of AI and data-intensive applications.
