Prompt & LLM workflow orchestration Partial match
There is no visual flow builder exactly like Bedrock Flows. The closest options are Agent Studio for prompt and agent prototyping, and ADK workflow agents (sequential, parallel, loop) in code.
- ADK workflow agents define deterministic pipelines in code rather than a drag-and-drop canvas.
- Agent Studio is a console workspace for prompts and agents, not a node graph like Bedrock Flows.
- For general orchestration around model calls, Google Cloud Workflows is another option.
Configuration-based agents (legacy Bedrock Agents) Partial match
For console-configured agents like classic Bedrock Agents, Google Cloud's path is to prototype in Agent Studio and deploy to Agent Runtime.
- Bedrock Agents (classic) is in maintenance in favor of AgentCore; Google's equivalent path is also code-first (ADK on Agent Runtime).
- Action groups map to ADK tools or MCP servers; knowledge bases map to RAG Engine or Agent Search.
