- About the Authors
The field of artificial intelligence is undergoing a paradigm shift, moving beyond instruction-based generative AI to intent-driven agentic AI. This new frontier is defined by autonomous systems that can independently reason, plan, and act to achieve complex goals, serving as a strategic imperative that promises to redefine operational efficiency for the modern enterprise.
This book provides a hands-on playbook for architects and technology leaders to move from prototypes to robust, enterprise-grade agentic applications. It guides you through the lifecycle of building autonomous systems, mastering durable patterns like Coordinator-Worker-Delegator (CWD), building for interoperability using the open-standard Agent Communication Protocol (ACP), and mitigating security threats with a formal Agentic Risk Framework.
By the end of this book, you will be equipped with the expert knowledge required to architect, build, deploy, and govern sophisticated, scalable, and value-driven agentic AI systems that deliver tangible results in real-world enterprise environments.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
● Architect autonomous AI agents with modern Python frameworks.
● Implement multi-agent workflows using LangGraph and AutoGen.
● Integrate the Model Context Protocol for API tool utilization.
● Manage state and memory in long-running agentic systems.
● Deploy dynamic retrieval-augmented generation (RAG 2.0).
● Establish rigorous security protocols and ethical AI guardrails.
● Scale enterprise AI systems for complex production environments.
