Google ADK and A2A For Intelligent Agent: Building Autonomous AI Systems with Google's Agent Development Kit and Agent-to-Agent Communication Protocol

By Jonathan Clarke

Step into the future of AI development with Google ADK and A2A For Intelligent Agent, your definitive guide to building modular, intelligent, and communicative agents using Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK) and the Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communication protocol. As the AI landscape rapidly shifts toward autonomous systems and multi-agent orchestration, this book demystifies how real-world intelligent agents are designed, deployed, and scaled across cloud environments-leveraging FunctionNode architectures, Vertex AI, and message-driven pipelines.
Written by a seasoned AI systems architect with years of experience in Google Cloud AI, AutoGen, LangChain, and enterprise-scale agent deployments, this book is based on in-the-trenches knowledge and current best practices. Every chapter reflects real industry implementation patterns, ensuring readers are equipped with actionable skills that go beyond theory.
This book offers a deep technical exploration of Google ADK and A2A, covering every critical element of intelligent agent systems-from foundational concepts and setup, to multi-agent conversations, context management, secure deployments, performance tuning, and ethical AI. You'll learn how to implement FunctionNodes, define agent roles and schemas, and deploy scalable agents using Vertex AI, Docker, and Cloud Run.
