[Advent of Agents] Day 24: Batch Processing: Scale to 10k with ADK

[abraha...@google.com]

Hi everyone,

Day 24 of Google's Advent of Agents — Season 2 is now live! 🌸

Stop forcing agents into synchronous loops that hit rate limits and break connections when processing massive datasets. Learn to implement the 'Agent as Orchestrator' pattern to offload high-volume workloads to the Gemini Batch API for 50% lower costs and production-grade scale.

Today's Highlights:

• Transition from fragile synchronous loops to a robust 'Agent as Orchestrator' architecture for large-scale data tasks.
• Utilize the Gemini Batch API via ADK to process asynchronous workloads at half the standard token cost.
• Implement tool-based offloading and state retrieval to manage 10,000+ document jobs without session timeouts.
