Thinking in platforms: Thrive in the agentic era
summary
Claims a new reference architecture (ADP) with three concrete layers: an existing internal developer platform as the base, a path specification layer (agent, deterministic, hybrid) and an agent infrastructure layer (harness, context, eval, governance). Evidence: original IDP reference was downloaded 250,000 times, university reports ~30,000 students and ~3–4,000 certified, and platform-backed AI workloads jump from ~5% to ~30–35% year over year. Example flow: webhook → orchestration → identity → path lookup → model execution → eval.
