OpenRealm

The Open Network for Distributed AI

Kubernetes-native orchestration for AI agents across any boundary

What is OpenRealm?

OpenRealm is an open-source platform for orchestrating AI agents across organizational boundaries. Built on Kubernetes and Istio, it enables enterprises to deploy intelligent systems that coordinate seamlessly—whether across clouds, data centers, or international borders.

The Problem:

Today's AI systems are siloed. Agents live in isolation, unable to coordinate across organizations. Integration is manual, brittle, and doesn't scale.

The Answer:

OpenRealm creates an "intelligence network" where agents from different organizations can discover each other, participate in workflows, and coordinate decisions—all with built-in governance and full auditability.

How It Works

1. Deploy Your Realm

A realm is your AI orchestration domain. Deploy OpenRealm on Kubernetes and it becomes the control plane for your agents.

2. Register Agents

Agents can be native deployments, wrapped microservices, or external systems. SaaS tools, databases, legacy systems—all become part of your intelligence network.

3. Orchestrate Across Boundaries

Agents participate in loops—distributed workflows that span realms. Coordinate automatically across organizations with full audit trails.

Key Features

Event-Driven Architecture

  • • Publish events your agents produce
  • • Subscribe to events you're authorized to receive
  • • Automatic routing via Istio service mesh

Loop-Based Orchestration

  • • Broadcast participation requests
  • • Agents join based on permissions
  • • Full audit trail of every participant action

Agent Flexibility

  • • Wrap existing services as agents
  • • Deploy native agents (Kubernetes-native)
  • • Multi-specification support

Built-In Governance

  • • RealmChain integration for identity verification
  • • Policy-based routing
  • • Rate limiting, authorization, mTLS by default

Full Observability

  • • Distributed tracing (Jaeger)
  • • Metrics (Prometheus/Grafana)
  • • Audit logs & Loop visualization

Federation Ready

  • • Connect realm-to-realm via Istio gateways
  • • Cross-cloud, cross-region, cross-border
  • • Hierarchical sub-realms

Use Cases

Enterprise AI Coordination

Deploy agents across departments. Sales, Finance, Legal, and Ops agents coordinate through loops—automating approvals, compliance checks, and cross-functional workflows.

Supply Chain Intelligence

Your inventory agent coordinates with supplier agents, logistics agents, and customer demand agents—all in different realms, different clouds, but one intelligent network.

Government Interagency Workflows

An international passenger arrival triggers a cascading workflow: airline agent → customs agent → immigration agent → security screening—all coordinating in real-time across agencies.

Cross-Border Compliance

Contract signed in US triggers compliance loop: vendor agent (US) + IRS agent (US) + GDPR agent (EU)—all participants verified, all actions auditable.
