Anthropic MCP vs Google A2A vs IBM ACP. Agent Protocols Review

Dive deep into communication protocols for AI agents. We will learn about the main protocols that are shaping how AI agents interact with the external world and with each other. AI agents are becoming more capable, with new ways to communicate, access tools, and process information.

In this video, we'll compare three brand new protocols, Model Context Protocol (MCP) from Anthropic, Agent-to-Agent (A2A) from Google, and Agent Communication Protocol (ACP) from IBM.

If you are a developer, a solutions architect, or a business leader, you need to have a clear picture of the purpose and characteristics of these protocols to build the most scalable, flexible, effective, and extensible solutions.

By the end of the video, you'll understand what each protocol does, how they differ, and how they might work together to create more powerful and interoperable AI agent systems.
