Agentic platforms are missing a crucial piece for widespread adoption!

My latest opinionated article dives into why human validation & seamless integration are key to empowering all users, not just tech-savvy ones!

The missing piece of Agentic platforms
What the objective of Agentic Platform? Does it to be mandatory for all agent interaction? or to be hidden to enhance employee efficiency?

For the 10th anniversary of Salon Data IA, I was invited to talk about #Agent colonization in the data platform team at Carrefour

5 agents in 6 months, with the power of Google Cloud and #Gemini, and the flexibility of #ADK

I'm very proud to share my first open source agentic contribution with my first accepted merge into #ADK framework.

I added the support of the long-term memory generation for compatible services, like Agent Engine Memory Bank, into the ADK built-in web server.

Agentic voice streaming offers a revolutionary way to interact with agent!

Combined with sessions and memories, it's a perfect companion. But when you plug it to #AgentEngine, you can have issues with #Gemini live

I've solved it and proposed an implementation with #ADK

A disaster can happen anytime!!

Thus, for critical data and use cases, having data replication with #BigQuery is paramount.
You can use the dataset cross region replication feature, but how much will it cost you?

In my latest article, discover a way to get an estimate

BigQuery Cross-Region Replication: Don’t Overlook the Network Costs
Cross region replication involves cost hard to estimate with BigQuery. However, there is a way to approximate egress cost
