Multi-agent patterns
Describing how multiple agents are organized and structured refers to their architectural pattern. In this section, we are going to learn about the two main multi-agent architectural patterns, their benefits and drawbacks, and how we can use OpenAI Agents SDK to implement each one.
The two multi-agent architectural patterns are as follows:
- Centralized system
- Decentralized system
Let’s go through each one.
Centralized system
The centralized system pattern is a multi-agent system where there is one central agent that then routes requests to other appropriate agents. This is the most common architectural pattern. The central agent is most often referred to as the “manager,” “orchestrator,” or “triage” agent, and the other agents are most often referred to as the “specialized” agents. The central agent is responsible for routing the user’s requests, while the...
