About this episode

As enterprises move from single to multi-agent AI deployments, a coordination infrastructure problem is emerging that connectivity protocols alone cannot solve. In this episode, Guillaume de Saint Marc, VP of Engineering at Outshift, examines why agents that can communicate still fail to collaborate — and outlines the semantic alignment, shared memory, and authorization architecture required to address it. The discussion covers specific failure modes in production multi-agent systems, the organizational security and observability decisions that determine whether agentic deployments scale, and how open standards protect enterprises from vendor lock-in as the space evolves.
 
This episode is sponsored by Outshift by Cisco. In this episode, we cover why enterprises scaling multi-agent AI need more than connected agents — they need shared semantic grounding, persistent memory, and fine-grained authorization to enable genuine collaboration.
