Solace has introduced Agent Mesh Enterprise, a new platform designed to help organisations build and operate real-time agentic AI applications at scale. The announcement was made on 2 December at AWS re:Invent in Las Vegas, where the company positioned the solution as a way to bridge the gap between early experimentation and full production deployment.
The company noted that interest in agentic AI is rising as enterprises look to improve productivity and reduce operational inefficiencies. Industry estimates cited by Solace suggest that agentic AI can accelerate business processes by up to 50 percent and cut low-value work by as much as 40 percent. Despite this potential, many organisations struggle to move beyond pilot projects due to concerns around system integration, data access, security and governance.
IDC has previously highlighted the need for event-driven data architectures to power agentic AI systems, arguing that such systems must supply relevant and contextual data to support autonomous decisions. Solace said Agent Mesh Enterprise was built with this requirement in mind, drawing on its existing event-driven architecture to support reliable communication between agents and enterprise applications.
Platform designed for orchestration and scalability
Agent Mesh Enterprise allows organisations to create single-agent and multi-agent systems that respond to real-time business events and interact securely with enterprise data. The platform’s architecture supports parallel agent execution and asynchronous communication, which Solace said helps improve resilience and horizontal scaling across production environments.
The company positioned the platform as a way to reduce development time by enabling rapid orchestration of native and third-party agents. It also emphasised the improved user experience delivered by allowing business teams to interact with enterprise data through familiar tools such as web chat, Slack and Microsoft Teams.
Solace said that its intelligent data management capabilities help reduce the cost of running large language models by filtering and passing only relevant information to an LLM. Other features include agent-based access controls, user-delegated permissions and single sign-on support, which are designed to meet enterprise security and compliance needs.
Matt Aslett, Director of Research, Analytics and Data at ISG Research, said the market is facing a complex set of challenges when enabling AI agents to perform automated tasks. “Solace is well-placed to address this opportunity with Solace Agent Mesh, which provides the core capabilities required for communication between agents and will enable Solace customers and prospects to build on existing investments in microservices and EDA as they move towards agentic AI,” he said.
In its latest evaluation of streaming data platforms, Forrester noted that Solace’s event-driven agents “stand out” for enabling real-time responsiveness across enterprise applications.
Tools for development, governance and enterprise integration
Solace has equipped the platform with a no-code agent builder, allowing teams to assemble agents through an AI-assisted interface without writing code. The platform also includes dynamic orchestration tools that can assign tasks to the appropriate agent in real time or follow prescribed workflows for more controlled scenarios.
To simplify integration with legacy and cloud systems, Agent Mesh Enterprise includes connectors for SQL, APIs and the Model Context Protocol, offering access to both real-time and static data sources. Gateways serve as controlled points of entry, enabling agent-triggered workflows from events, APIs or enterprise communication apps.
The platform includes observability tools that give teams full visibility into agent workflows, interactions with LLMs and system performance. Solace said this transparency is critical for establishing trust and supporting debugging processes in complex agentic environments.
Shawn McAllister, CPO and CTO at Solace, said the rise of agentic AI has reshaped expectations in the enterprise. “Agentic AI has completely changed the face of business, and requires revolutionary solutions to continue to fuel its unprecedented growth. Solace Agent Mesh Enterprise is the net result of a bold vision on how organisations can better harness the power of agentic AI,” he said. He added that the platform allows organisations to move quickly from experimentation to large-scale deployment with secure access to enterprise context.
Solace is offering a pilot programme for organisations that want to test the platform. The company has also released Solace Agent Mesh Community as an open-source project on GitHub, giving developers access to an event-driven framework for integrating AI agents with real-world data systems.
Solace said its real-time data technologies are used by enterprises across manufacturing, retail, consumer goods, financial services and logistics, including Bosch, Heineken, Schwarz Group, RBC Capital Markets and PSA Singapore.
