Speakers: IGNACIO MARTINEZ (Data Scientist Advocate, Oracle) | Beda Hammerschmidt (VP, Oracle Database, SQL and Analytics)Abstract: Switch a real, existing application and its data from MongoDB to Oracle and do more. See live how you can enable GenAI-driven capabilities directly using the JSON data and AI features to expand your application with new capabilities. The application runs on your JSON collections exactly as they were in Mongo, with nothing changed. This live demo shows you how to:
· Work with SQL tools to quickly create charts for real-time, operational reporting
· Enable a RAG pipeline to augment an LLM model with the data in your application
· Expand the e-commerce store application with AI and generate live discussions on reviews directly within the application
With this knowledge, you can quickly deliver AI capabilities in your applications, simplify your architecture, and reduce data duplication.More upcoming sessions:

Description:
Join Google Cloud Labs for an immersive, hands on workshop learning how to build and scale production-grade AI agents with Cloud Run and GPU support.This is a hands-on program designed to take your AI applications from prototype to full-scale production. In the world of AI development, a great idea is just the beginning. The real challenge lies in transforming that initial spark into a secure, scalable, and robust application that can handle real-world demands.
Get ready to get your hands dirty! This is an interactive session, not a lecture. Through a series of live labs, you'll tackle real-world challenges, from securing your services to deploying advanced AI agents. You will leave with practical skills and the confidence to take your own AI projects to the next level.
What You Will Learn:
- Deploy Secure, Production-Ready Services: Master the essentials of securing your applications on Cloud Run. You will build and deploy a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server and learn to implement authentication to ensure that only authorized clients and agents can interact with your service.
- Build Intelligent Agents: Dive into the Agent Development Kit (ADK) to construct an intelligent agent capable of understanding a goal and using tools to achieve it. You'll connect your agent to the secure MCP server you built, giving it the power to perform real-world tasks.
- Containerize and Deploy: Take your working agent and prepare it for a consistent, portable deployment. This is a crucial step for managing applications in a serverless environment.
- Harness the Power of GPUs on Cloud Run: Deploy your containerized agent to a Cloud Run instance and attach a GPU to accelerate your models. You will gain hands-on experience managing production configurations and testing a live, GPU-accelerated application.
