Enterprise AI's real risk isn't autonomous agents. It's the complexity between them.
Presented by Gravitee Agent complexity is the insidious shadow lurking inside enterprises right now that needs a light shone on it. That's because enterprises don't deploy a single agent and watch it run, they deploy fleets, each one calling APIs, calling other agents, reaching into applications that were never built with a machine decision-maker in mind. That's the failure mode that should keep you up at night: a windy, complicated system nobody can see clearly enough to govern. But why do things get so opaque so quickly? Add a second agent to a system, and you've added one connection. Add a tenth, and you haven't added ten connections, you've potentially added dozens, because now any agent might call any other,source:VentureBeat

When agents act on their own, governance has to live in the data layer
Presented by EDB As enterprises give AI agents more autonomy – the ability to plan, decide, and act across systems without a human approving each step – a hard question moves to the center of every architecture review: When an agent tries to complete an action that it was never authorized to do, what actually stops it? These are your agents, running on your models, touching your data in your infrastructure – and the responsibility for what they do sits with you. That responsibility can't be met in hindsight or with a set of abstract policies that live on paper but not in practice. Agents need rules in the context of the moment, because they don't exercise overriding judgment ofsource:VentureBeat
