Google Cloud Labs Presents The Agentverse

Event Description
Note: this is a Google-led event and any questions should be directed to the official registration!

Welcome to the Agentverse, the new enterprise ecosystem where intelligent agents collaborate to drive business outcomes. But how do you build and govern this new world? How do you transform the creative "vibe" of AI development into the robust, secure, and scalable systems your organization demands?

This workshop is the definitive enterprise playbook for mastering the agentic future on Google Cloud. We provide an end-to-end roadmap that guides you from the first vibe of an idea to a full-scale, operational reality. You will learn how the roles of developer, architect, data engineer, and SRE converge to create, manage, and scale a thriving Agentverse.

Get ready to press start! This isn't a typical lecture; it's a hands-on, gamified mission into the Agentverse. You'll choose your role, make critical decisions, and build your way through a series of challenges. You'll leave not with notes, but with a playbook of skills you earned yourself.

Note: To join the Codelab, you must bring your own laptop and power cable. The activities are intended for laptops and cannot be completed on a tablet or phone.

What You Will Learn:

Master Controlled "Vibe Coding": Go from intuitive prompts to reliable enterprise components by mastering the Model Context Protocol (MCP), ensuring your agents act with precision and predictability.
Architect Your Agentverse: Design resilient, multi-agent systems using proven patterns and Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communication. Build the foundational blueprint for collaboration and scale.
Power Your Agents with a Knowledge Core: Establish BigQuery as the central, governed knowledge source for your Agentverse. Implement advanced Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to fuel your agents with secure, relevant data.
Implement Bulletproof AgentOps: Define the DevOps practices for a new era. Learn to secure, deploy, and maintain observability across your entire agentic ecosystem, ensuring mission-critical performance.
