<![CDATA[The more and more autonomous software agents perform business operations against the shared cloud state, the more duplicated, misordered and irrecoverable effects are experienced by enterprises in the event of failure and retry. A systematic review of 26 peer-reviewed sources over 46 years was carried out to see how transactional consistency can be ensured from the agent to the cloud. A rubric for eight coordination mechanisms was developed with six criteria, and sources were coded into five domains. The synthesis demonstrates that crash tolerance is 2f + 1 replicas, Byzantine tolerance is 3f + 1, and that update-anywhere replication is N^3 times as many conflicts, where N is the number of nodes, or that deterministic sequencing has been reported at about 500,000 transactions per second. A composite event-safe fabric, by combining a durable intent log, per domain sequencing, idempotent effects and sagas, as well as convergent agent memory, achieved a composite score of 2.45, compared to a mean of 1.94 for single mechanisms. The ranking assumes a certain level of weight for the effect safety, and the conclusions are based on ordinal coding instead of measured agent workloads. Architectural guidelines for designing agent enabled enterprise platforms and directions for empirical research are provided.]]>
