WEBINAR "AI Agent from Prototype to Production"
Online
Pre-registration is REQUIRED.
Add to your calendar - https://hubs.li/Q03HZj780

This hands-on workshop gives you experience taking your AI agent from prototype to production. First, you’ll build and deploy a secure MCP server on Google Cloud Run and implement authentication for authorized agents. Next, you’ll use the Agent Development Kit (ADK) to build and deploy an agent that uses the secure MCP server to accomplish its goals.
We will also provide additional materials to show you how to deploy your agent to a GPU-accelerated Cloud Run instance for maximum power.
