You connect a model, add tools, and build a workflow. But once these systems run in production, new problems appear. Behavior becomes hard to predict. Memory drifts. Retries stack up and create load. Failures spread across the system in ways that feel closer to distributed systems than application code.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis book takes a systems view of agent design. It treats agents as parts of a distributed control system with clear boundaries and responsibilities. Instead of focusing on prompts or frameworks, it explains how real systems behave under load and failure. You learn how to design memory models, structure retrieval pipelines, and choose orchestration patterns that stay stable over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe book also focuses on how things break. It introduces a clear set of failure patterns such as retry storms, silent drift, and loss of provenance. Each pattern is explained with real examples and practical fixes. You see how design decisions affect reliability, cost, and trust in production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAs you move forward, you explore observability, evaluation, and release practices for agent systems. Topics such as debugging, rollback, and system visibility are treated as core design concerns. The approach stays vendor‑neutral, so the ideas apply across tools and platforms.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is built for teams moving beyond prototypes. It provides a structured way to design, operate, and improve agent systems that need to work at scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat You Will Learn:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDesign agent systems with clear control boundaries\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eHandle non‑determinism, retries, and state consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eBuild reliable memory and retrieval pipelines\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRecognize and fix common production failure patterns\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho This Book Is For:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eBackend engineers, platform teams, and architects building or operating agent systems in production.

This book emerged from his interest in the gap between building agent-based applications and operating them reliably in production. His goal is to bring a systems-engineering perspective to a space that is currently dominated by capability-driven approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13 March 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApress\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApress\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9798868830464\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback \/ softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Apress","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50806363357324,"sku":"9798868830464","price":58.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9798868830464","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
