Hypermedia APIs and the Future of AI Agentic Systems
Thu, 24 April
The age of hypermedia-driven APIs is finally upon us, unlocking a radical new future for AI agents. By combining the power of the Hydra linked-data vocabulary with semantic payloads, APIs can become fully self-describing and consumable by intelligent agents, paving the way for a new class of autonomous systems. In this session, we’ll explore how mature REST APIs (level 3) open up groundbreaking possibilities for agentic systems, where AI agents can perform complex tasks without human intervention.
You’ll learn how language models can understand and interact with hypermedia-driven APIs, and how linked data can power autonomous decision-making. We’ll also examine real-world use cases where AI agents utilize these advanced APIs to transform industries—from e-commerce to enterprise software. If you’re ready to explore the future of AI-driven systems and how hypermedia APIs are the key to unlocking it, this session will give you the knowledge and tools to get started.
This session is primarily aimed at DeepTech Professionals, as it focuses on cutting-edge technologies like AI agents and their interaction with hypermedia-driven APIs, which are crucial for developing autonomous systems. Software Architects are the secondary audience, as they need to understand how these advanced APIs can be integrated into complex architectures to support AI-driven solutions. Back-end Developers may also find value in learning how to implement hypermedia-driven APIs that can be consumed by intelligent agents, pushing the boundaries of traditional API design.
