Google Home meets .NET containers on Google Cloud

on YouTube ↗01h 01m

" summary

Live demo wires Google Home/Assistant to a .NET Core app in a container deployed on App Engine Flex (also runnable on GKE), using a Dialogflow webhook to /conversation that sends intents to the app which calls Google APIs. Vision API returns labels and landmarks for images, BigQuery scans public datasets (example: 5.2 GB scanned in ~4s for temperatures, 698 MB in ~5.1s for Hacker News) and Stackdriver captures errors, traces and production snapshots for debugging.
