Learning objectives
After completing this module, you'll be able to:
- Describe the benefits and tradeoffs of multi-agent architectures compared to single-agent solutions.
- Evaluate when to use multi-agent solutions based on complexity, team ownership, and governance requirements.
- Determine when child agents are the right multi-agent approach and how to scope them effectively.
- Determine when connected agents are needed and select the appropriate connection option based on agent source and ownership.
- Compare orchestrator/subagent and workflow-oriented patterns to select the appropriate coordination approach for connected agents.
Prerequisites
- Ability to create, configure, test, and publish an agent in Microsoft Copilot Studio
