Google Cloud has announced the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform, an evolution of Vertex AI restructured as an agent-first ecosystem. The platform covers the full agent development lifecycle across four phases: build, scale, govern, and optimize. Key components include the Agent Development Kit (ADK) supporting Python, TypeScript, Java, and Go; Agent CLI for AI-assisted development; Agent Studio for low-code visual building; Agent Runtime for managed deployment with sub-second cold starts and up to 7-day long-running agents; and governance tools like Agent Identity, Agent Registry, Agent Policies, and Model Armor. Observability features include Agent Topology, Agent Evaluation, Agent Simulation, and Agent Optimizer for continuous improvement. The platform supports MCP, agent-to-agent (A2A) protocol, and integrates with frameworks like LangGraph, LangChain, CrewAI, and AG2.
