Google's strategy for its agent platform is not a new build but an extension of long-standing investments in core infrastructure. This includes its 'One Network' initiative for standardized communication and its robust API management platform, which underpins the Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.
The Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform is composed of several key layers designed for enterprise control. The Agent Gateway handles identity and access, the Agent Registry allows for discovery and governance of agents, and 'skills' are treated as version-controlled software artifacts subject to vulnerability scanning.
The platform's architecture promotes a future of specialized agents that collaborate to solve complex problems, rather than a single monolithic AI. The Agent Registry facilitates this by allowing different agents, including those built by business users with no-code tools, to be discovered and combined into 'teams'.
Google is applying its agent technology to its own domain with Cloud Assist, a suite of specialized agents for cloud management. These agents assist with tasks like creating Terraform configurations, troubleshooting, and cost analysis, with a roadmap toward becoming more autonomous and proactive.
