Intelligent Java Apps: Agent Patterns, MCP, and the Future of AI-Native Design - Daniel Oh

This talk covers the transition of AI in Java from experimentation to production, focusing on the development of intelligent, context-aware systems. The speaker explores how agent-based architecture, particularly the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communication, is reshaping the creation of modern intelligent services. Attendees will gain insights into designing multi-agent systems that leverage persistent memory, enhance reasoning, and utilize tool orchestration, while also examining important architectural trade-offs involving performance, flexibility, and governance. As enterprises increasingly adopt AI-native solutions, this session emphasizes Java's role as a mature and reliable platform in the evolving landscape of intelligent software.
