Welcome to the definitive guide on building production-ready agentic AI systems in the .NET ecosystem. Moving beyond theory, this course focuses on the hands-on development of autonomous multi-agent orchestration for enterprise applications. Powered by the Microsoft Agent Framework, Microsoft Foundry, the Model Context Protocol (MCP), Aspire, AG-UI, DevUI and .NET, you will learn how to build robust AI workflows that solve complex business problems. This course is designed to give you production-grade visibility and control from day one, integrating enterprise-grade AI agent patterns for real-world business workflows.
What You Will Master
In this comprehensive enterprise course, we move beyond basic prompt engineering into deep architectural implementation natively in C#:
- Microsoft Agent Framework (MAF): Deep dive into Microsoft’s framework for building sophisticated, stateful AI systems, utilizing Microsoft Foundry and Azure OpenAI as your cognitive engines.
- Multi-Agent Orchestration: Design and implement complex workflow patterns (Sequential pipelines, Concurrent execution, dynamic Handoffs, and Group Chats) using Swarm Intelligence and the WorkflowBuilder.
- Agentic RAG Systems: Rethink traditional, rigid RAG pipelines. Build intelligent, intent-based retrieval systems using Qdrant vector databases and the TextSearchProvider, allowing the AI to autonomously decide when and how to search your enterprise knowledge.
- Protocols & Interoperability: Master the bleeding edge of integration: Agent-to-Agent (A2A) network communications, the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for tool exposure, and the AG-UI protocol for generative frontend streaming.
- Observability & Visual Testing: Achieve production-grade visibility using .NET Aspire and DevUI. Visually track JSON payloads, token usage, agent handoff latencies, and tool calls in real-time.
- Enterprise Microservices Integration: Scaffold a complete MinimalAgent microservices architecture, learning exactly how to integrate AI agents seamlessly into existing backends and web APIs.
