Introducing the HAC architecture—a distributed system that enables multiple AI agents to coordinate, share resources, and execute complex tasks together.

HAC
Today we're introducing the HAC (Hyperfold Agentic Compute) architecture—a revolutionary approach to building distributed AI agent systems that enables seamless coordination, resource sharing, and intelligent task execution across multiple agents.
As AI agents become more sophisticated, they need to work together effectively. The HAC architecture provides a foundation for agents to collaborate, share resources, and coordinate complex tasks that no single agent could handle alone.
The HAC architecture is built on three fundamental principles:
The HAC architecture consists of several key components that work together to enable distributed agentic computing:
Orchestration Layer
The orchestration layer serves as the central nervous system of the HAC architecture. It receives incoming requests, analyzes task requirements, and intelligently distributes work across the agent network. The orchestrator maintains awareness of system state, agent capabilities, and resource availability to make optimal routing decisions.
Agent Network
The agent network consists of specialized AI agents, each with unique capabilities and expertise. Agents can be dynamically added or removed from the network, and they communicate with each other through standardized protocols. Each agent maintains its own state while contributing to the shared knowledge base.
Service Registry
The service registry acts as a directory of available agents and their capabilities. When a new agent joins the network, it registers its skills and availability. The orchestrator queries the registry to find the best agent for each task, ensuring optimal resource utilization.
Shared Storage
A distributed storage system maintains shared state, knowledge bases, and persistent data that all agents can access. This enables agents to build upon each other's work and maintain consistency across the system. The storage layer handles synchronization and conflict resolution automatically.
API Gateway
The API gateway provides a unified interface for external clients to interact with the HAC system. It handles authentication, rate limiting, and request routing, presenting a clean abstraction over the underlying distributed architecture.
Monitoring System
Comprehensive monitoring tracks system health, agent performance, and resource utilization. This enables proactive optimization and provides visibility into how the distributed system operates as a whole.
How It Works
When a task enters the system through the API gateway, the orchestration layer analyzes its requirements and consults the service registry to identify capable agents. The orchestrator then routes the task to the most appropriate agent or coordinates multiple agents for complex tasks.
Agents communicate through standardized protocols, sharing intermediate results and coordinating their efforts. The shared storage layer ensures all agents have access to the latest information, while the monitoring system tracks performance and identifies optimization opportunities.
The HAC architecture enables a wide range of applications:
This is just the beginning. We're continuously evolving the HAC architecture to support more sophisticated coordination patterns, improved resource management, and enhanced agent capabilities. In the coming months, we'll be releasing:
We're excited to see what developers and organizations build with the HAC architecture.
