Standards and AI Agents: an Overview of MCP, A2A, ADK and More
summary
Overview of IA agent standards and frameworks: explains protocols MCP, A2A, ACP and frameworks ADK, Arc, Quarkus, LangChain4j. Shows how to build an agent first without protocols, then add MCP interactions, and finally create a multi-agent, multi-technology system using A2A with ADK, Quarkus and LangChain4j, including live demos and explanations of why and how the protocols work.
