Google Cloud launches Agent Compute Engine for isolated AI agents

Google Cloud has introduced Agent Compute Engine, a new service designed to run AI agents within dedicated, hardware-isolated microVMs. This approach offers enhanced security by ensuring each agent's sandbox contains no credentials and has limited access. The service, which already powers Gemini for work tasks, aims to provide the isolation of virtual machines with the speed and density of containers, with a customer preview expected in the coming months. AI

IMPACT This new infrastructure could enable more secure and efficient deployment of AI agents in enterprise environments.
