These platforms are highly important for organizations scaling from handfuls to thousands of AI agents running in production. Two open standards do the connective work: MCP (Model Context Protocol) gives agents governed access to tools and data, while A2A (Agent2Agent) lets agents discover and delegate to one another, including agents b
