Okta made Agent SSO generally available, bringing the open Cross App Access standard into the identity platform used by 20,000+ customers. Organizations can register agents such as Claude in Universal Directory, apply centralized access policies, monitor activity and change permissions without sharing static credentials.

The strategic shift: AI agents are becoming governed members of the enterprise workforce. Identity providers are emerging as the control layer that determines which systems each agent can access and what it can do.

Britive introduced Agentic Runtime Control, which verifies an agent and its human delegator, evaluates the task and prompt context, grants only the required access and revokes it when the work ends. Its MCP Gateway can enforce policies at the level of individual tool calls, SSH commands and SQL statements while recording the identities, permissions, actions and outcomes involved.

The strategic shift: agent security is moving beyond protecting credentials toward granting temporary, task-specific authority that can be monitored and withdrawn in real time.

NVIDIA put Groq 3 LPX into full production as an inference accelerator for latency-sensitive agent workloads. It generated a claimed 3,400 output tokens per second on Gemma 4 31B with a 100,000-token context and delivered 4x faster agent responsiveness than the nearest alternative in NVIDIA’s cited benchmarking. Nebius is the first cloud provider adopting it.

The strategic shift: as agents perform hundreds or thousands of reasoning and tool-use steps, token-generation speed is becoming a direct constraint on how quickly they can complete useful work.

SpaceXAI will deploy NVIDIA Vera CPUs alongside Vera Rubin infrastructure for the next generation of Grok agent workloads as it scales toward gigawatts of computing capacity. The company also plans to use an optimized Vera Rubin NVL72 system in its first-generation Starmind AI satellite. Vera has 88 Olympus cores, up to 1.2 TB/s memory bandwidth and claimed task completion up to 1.8x faster than x86 CPUs.

The strategic shift: agent infrastructure is expanding beyond GPUs. CPU orchestration, code execution, simulations and tool use are becoming important enough to require specialized hardware.

Intel presented an agent-focused hardware stack spanning data centers and edge devices. Diamond Rapids supports up to 256 cores, 16 memory channels and 128 PCIe Gen6 lanes; Crescent Island combines 480GB of LPDDR5X memory with a 350-watt air-cooled design for concurrent agents and long contexts; Wildcat Lake brings up to 17 TOPS of NPU performance to mainstream devices.

The strategic shift: chipmakers are redesigning full hardware portfolios around agent orchestration, inference economics and on-device execution rather than treating agents as conventional model-serving workloads.

Caddi launched a supervisory agent that discovers repetitive business processes, learns each process like a new employee and creates specialized agents to perform the work. It maintains governance and a complete audit trail, initially targeting back-office operations in wealth management, legal services and insurance.

The strategic shift: agent creation itself is becoming an automated business process. Instead of configuring every workflow manually, companies may deploy supervisor agents that identify automation opportunities and generate the required worker agents.
