Microservices solved the coordination cost of the monolith and created a distributed-systems problem. Containers and orchestration solved the deployment problem and created an operational one. The service mesh solved the cross-cutting problem and pushed complexity into the platform. Each step was a response to a concrete engineering constraint, not a trend.</p> <p>Follow that chain to the end, and the interface the industry converged on — a named, typed, discoverable, independently deployable unit — turns out to be almost exactly the interface a language model needs to call a tool. That convergence is the technical reason agents are the next era.</p>
