Agentic Systems & Orchestration

Autonomous agents lacking standardized context management are comparable to granting junior employees unrestricted access to every system without supervision. This category examines agent orchestration with integrated governance, including the Model Context Protocol (MCP) as an integration framework, multi-agent coordination patterns, the security implications of agentic systems, and scalable workflows for regulated environments.

Key topics include agent architecture principles, context management strategies, enforcement of governance in real-time, MCP implementation patterns, and considerations for real-world deployment. This is essential reading for organizations transitioning from single-model systems to orchestrated agentic workflows, where agents must understand organizational constraints before taking action.
