Agentic AI Platform Engineering

What an Agentic Platform Actually Is

Your organisation has six teams building agents. Each one has its own model credentials, its own tool integrations, its own idea of what an agent is allowed to do, and no two of them can tell you what their agents did last Tuesday. That is the problem a platform exists to solve.

What this lesson covers

  • The difference between building an agent and running a fleet of them
  • What a platform owns versus what agent teams own
  • Why the answer is infrastructure rather than a framework choice
  • The five-layer model: users and channels, agent kernel, control plane, action gateway, knowledge foundation

INTERVIEW QUESTION

Six teams are independently building agents in your organisation. Make the case for a central platform, and be specific about what the platform should own and what it should deliberately leave to the teams.
