Talk Title: Building Self-Contained Data Agents with Agno, chDB, and Google Cloud Run

Talk Description: AI agents are often built as “brains”—brilliant at reasoning, but disconnected from the datasets they need to analyze. Most developers bridge this gap with complex, high-latency API calls to remote databases, creating bottlenecks that kill performance. By embedding the vectorized power of chDB and the orchestration of Agno directly into a Google Cloud Run container, we can move the compute to the data. This architecture creates stateful, self-contained units that carry their own analytical engines—scaling to zero when idle, yet delivering sub-second insights on millions of rows the moment they wake up.
