After deploying hundreds of ML models to production across startups and enterprises, I’ve learned that model deployment is where most AI projects fail. Not because the models don’t work—but because teams underestimate the engineering complexity of serving predictions reliably at scale. This article shares production-tested deployment patterns from REST APIs to Kubernetes orchestration. 1. The […]

Production RAG Architecture: Building Scalable Vector Search Systems
Three months into production, our RAG system started failing at 2AM. Not gracefully—complete outages. The problem wasn’t the models or the embeddings. It was the architecture. After rebuilding it twice, here’s what I learned about building RAG systems that actually work in production. Figure 1: Production RAG Architecture Overview The Night Everything Broke It was […]

Deploying LLMs on Kubernetes requires careful planning. After deploying 25+ LLM models on Kubernetes, I’ve learned what works. Here’s the complete guide to running LLMs on Kubernetes in production. Figure 1: Kubernetes LLM Architecture Why Kubernetes for LLMs Kubernetes offers significant advantages for LLM deployment: Scalability: Auto-scale based on demand Resource management: Efficient GPU and […]

Last year, I deployed our first LLM application to Cloud Run. What should have taken hours took three days. Cold starts killed our latency. Memory limits caused crashes. Timeouts broke long-running requests. After deploying 20+ LLM applications to Cloud Run, I’ve learned what works and what doesn’t. Here’s the complete guide. Figure 1: Cloud Run […]
