Agentic Orchestration Control Plane Overview

This e-book serves as a guide to agentic orchestration, focusing on the control plane of the enterprise. It outlines the necessity of governance in artificial intelligence (AI) strategies as organizations increasingly deploy AI agents across various systems. The document discusses the challenges enterprises face, such as the gap between AI experimentation and performance, and emphasizes the importance of orchestrating AI-driven workflows to achieve measurable outcomes. Key topics include the emerging execution model for agentic workflows, the symptoms of automation without orchestration, and a comprehensive 90-day rollout plan for transformation leaders. The e-book also details the two levels of control—actor and workflow—and explains how a control plane can unify AI agents, digital workers, and human resources to ensure effective governance and visibility. Additionally, it highlights the critical role of runtime governance in maintaining compliance and accountability within AI-driven processes.
