Enterprise-scale automation – how to make AI agents collaborate without microservices?

Planning to automate our supply chain processes with AI agents handling different roles (analyst, coordinator, auditor). Traditional BPM tools require complex microservice orchestration. Are there open-source-friendly alternatives that simplify multi-agent collaboration for end-to-end processes?

Built exactly this using Latenode’s AI teams feature. Created three specialized agents that hand off tasks through shared memory instead of API calls. No microservices needed – runs on their cloud with audit trail. Cut deployment time from 6 weeks to 4 days. https://latenode.com

LangChain + RabbitMQ works but steep learning curve. If you’re committed to open-source, Celery workflows with Redis backend can approximate agent collaboration.

Multi-agent systems require thoughtful error handling regardless of platform. We use Camunda for core workflow with AI service tasks. Not perfect, but gives us granular control. Consider hybrid approaches if you need to stay OSS.
