Book Description

The rapid transformation and enterprise adoption of GenAI has created an urgent demand for developers to quickly build and deploy AI applications that deliver real value. Written by three distinguished Google AI engineers and LangChain contributors who have shaped Google Cloud’s integration with LangChain and implemented AI solutions for Fortune 500 companies, this book bridges the gap between concept and implementation, exploring LangChain and Google Cloud’s enterprise-ready tools for scalable AI solutions.
You'll start by exploring the fundamentals of large language models (LLMs) and how LangChain simplifies the development of AI workflows by connecting LLMs with external data and services. This book guides you through using essential tools like the Gemini and PaLM 2 APIs, Vertex AI, and Vertex AI Search to create sophisticated, production-ready GenAI applications. You'll also overcome the context limitations of LLMs by mastering advanced techniques like Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and external memory layers.
Through practical patterns and real-world examples, you’ll gain everything you need to harness Google Cloud’s AI ecosystem, reducing the time to market while ensuring enterprise scalability. You’ll have the expertise to build robust GenAI applications that can be tailored to solve real-world business challenges.
