Google launches Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform — agents over apps
Google retired Vertex AI and unveiled Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform at Cloud Next 2026, signaling a shift from app-centric to agent-centric enterprise software.
The stack splits into four layers: Build (agent creation), Scale (deployment), Govern (compliance and safety), Optimize (performance tuning).
If agents become the default IT interface, the implication is architectural — fewer static apps, more dynamic task execution.
