AI agents are deploying and testing in real cloud environments, often with broader access than human developers. This two-page brief from the State of AI in Cloud Development 2026 survey, conducted by Dimensional Research, shows what that means for security, cloud spend, and delivery speed.

What's inside:

• How far agent access goes, including how many teams let agents into production
• The top concerns teams have about agent access, led by leaked credentials and misconfigurations
• How AI-generated code is holding up once it leaves the editor
• Why staging is now the bottleneck, with 42% waiting more than 10 minutes per code update
• How isolated LocalStack sandboxes give agents, developers, and CI pipelines a safe place to deploy and test

Who it's for: engineering, platform, and security leaders rolling out AI agents across their cloud development lifecycle.
