Build Durable Agents with Open Source Frameworks

This whitepaper introduces Conductor Agents, the open-source AI agent framework built into Orkes Conductor, and explains how it helps enterprises build durable, production-grade AI agents with governance, auditability, and workflow orchestration built in. Unlike lightweight agent frameworks focused only on reasoning loops, Conductor Agents combines agent execution with Conductor's enterprise orchestration capabilities, enabling organizations to run secure, long-running, and reliable AI workflows at scale.

Key Takeaways:

  • Conductor Agents runs AI agents on the same orchestration engine as enterprise workflows.
  • It supports long-running, fault-tolerant, and multi-agent AI workflows.
  • The paper compares Conductor Agents with LangGraph, CrewAI, and AutoGen, emphasizing stronger governance and durability.
  • Orkes differentiates Conductor Agents through workflow orchestration, auditability, and hybrid deployment support.
