InfraBench: Evaluating Infrastructure Agents Across Layers, Lifecycle, and Risk
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.11234v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Managing modern computing infrastructure has become a steadily harder problem due to the ever-increasing complexity. Recent advances in AI agents create a timely opportunity to automate infrastructure management tasks, but it remains unclear how well such agents can handle real-world infrastructure complexity. We present InfraBench, a benchmark suite for evaluating AI agents on realistic infrastructure tasks across the full system stack and full operational lifecycle with fine-grained risk assessment. Experiments with 15 agent-model configuration
