We've supercharged the Vertex AI SDK for ABAP to build even more sophisticated AI-powered applications:
Automatic Function Chaining: Handle complex LLM interactions by enabling the SDK to automatically call sequences of SAP function modules or other agents as determined by the model. This allows for agent orchestration directly from ABAP. (Learn more: here)
Multi-Turn Conversations: Build context-aware conversational AI agents in ABAP using Gemini models. The SDK now supports passing conversation history with each request. (Learn more: here | See example: sample solution)
Controlled Content Generation (Gemini 2.0): Ensure LLM responses adhere to specific schemas for consistently formatted output, crucial for reliable application integration. (Learn more:here)
Connect your SAP systems to sophisticated multi-agent systems built using the open-source Agent Development Kit (ADK) and deployed on Vertex AI Agent Engine.
Version 1.10 of the ABAP SDK for Google Cloud represents a major step forward in bridging the SAP and Google Cloud worlds. It provides ABAP developers with powerful, integrated tools to leverage cutting-edge AI/ML, build robust event-driven architectures, optimize storage, and much more.
