Issue/Introduction
Gen AI tile has been renamed to AI Services as per Tanzu Platform component name changes for October 2025. The naming change also affected the plan name which changed from genai to ai-models.
Environment
GenAI on Tanzu Platform for Cloud Foundry
AI Services for VMware Tanzu Platform
Cause
For apps that utilise plan name to get credentials from service instances, this may cause the app to fail.
Resolution
The recommended way is to use tags to extract the model credentials from VCAP_SERVICES e.g. (genai, llm). If using the plan name genai that has now changed to be ai-models app code will have to be updated to change the credential discovery code before re-pushing the app.
If your code is searching VCAP_SERVICES for the service offering name to match genai, then this is not backwards compatible.
If your code is searching VCAP_SERVICES for an entry with a tag that matches either genai or llm, then this is backwards compatible.
