AWS re:Invent 2025 - From AI Promise to KPI Impact: Connected Agents & Orchestration (API204)

Summary of AWS re:Invent 2025 - From AI Promise to KPI Impact: Connected Agents & Orchestration (API204)

The Promise and Limitations of AI Agents

• AI has been a major focus in recent years, with various interpretations and applications
• AI essentially combines orchestration with agents that can perform front-end tasks
• However, current AI agents are primarily used for basic tasks like writing emails, rather than interacting with core enterprise applications

The Power of Orchestration

• Orchestration is the "silent force" that enables AI agents to be truly impactful
• Key capabilities enabled by orchestration include:
  • Governed, real-time access to enterprise data
  • Process orchestration and automation
  • Defined roles and access controls
  • Continuous lifecycle management
• Combining AI with orchestration empowers agents to interact with and take actions on core business applications

Orchestration Requirements for Intelligent Agents

• Secure and trusted connectivity to enterprise applications
• Ability to implement authentication and authorization controls
• Enablement of human-agent collaboration and handoffs
• Comprehensive audit trails and visibility into agent actions

Vertado's Approach: Orchestration-Powered AI Agents

• Vertado started as an orchestration platform and layered agent capabilities on top
• Vertado 1 provides access to enterprise knowledge, orchestration, and trusted governance
• Vertado's Enterprise MCP (Middleware Connectivity Platform) allows agents to leverage existing integrations and orchestrations

The Power of Enterprise MCP

• Enables AI agents to interact with core business applications and data sources
• Leverages Vertado's 12,000+ pre-built connectors and governance model
• Allows agents to perform actions on behalf of users (e.g. summarizing sales pipeline)
• Accelerates value by reusing existing integrations and orchestrations

Benefits of an Enterprise-Grade Orchestration Platform

• Provides a fully managed, always-on orchestration environment
• Enables zero-downtime upgrades and comprehensive auditing
• Supports flexible integration patterns (e.g. event-driven, API-based)
• Delivers the enterprise-grade capabilities required to power intelligent agent solutions

Conclusion and Call to Action

• Visit Vertado's booth #1085 to see live demonstrations of their orchestration and agent capabilities
• Partner with a platform that can deliver the orchestration foundation to make AI agents truly impactful
