The Agent2Agent (A2A) Protocol, a new open standard, is initiated by Google along with over 50 partners (like Salesforce, SAP, Cohere, LangChain, etc.). It aims to solve a big challenge: getting AI agents built by different companies and on different frameworks to actually communicate and collaborate effectively.
A2A provides a common language for agents to discover each other's capabilities, exchange information securely, and coordinate actions across various systems. It nicely complements Anthropic's MCP, which focuses on agent-tool interaction.
So MCP (for tools) + A2A (for collaboration), are we now seeing the very foundational pillars for the coming Agent era?

Really interesting to see big players like Google backing this. A2A sounds like a game-changer for agent communication!
