Continuing from my previous blog, let’s explore some more advanced topics related to DevSecOps implementation. Shift-Left Testing One of the key concepts in DevSecOps is shift-left testing. This means shifting security testing as far left in the software development process as possible. This helps identify security issues early in the development process, which is much […]

The debate between monolithic and microservices architectures has evolved significantly over the past decade. What was once a straightforward “microservices are better” narrative has matured into a nuanced understanding that the right architecture depends entirely on context. After leading architecture decisions across dozens of enterprise systems, I’ve learned that the most expensive mistakes come not […]
Read more →Multi-turn Conversation Design: Building Natural Dialogue Systems with LLMs
Introduction: Multi-turn conversations are where LLM applications become truly useful. Users don’t just ask single questions—they refine, follow up, reference previous context, and expect the assistant to remember what was discussed. Building effective multi-turn systems requires careful attention to context management, history compression, turn-taking logic, and graceful handling of topic changes. This guide covers practical […]
Read more →LLM Prompt Templates: Building Maintainable Prompt Systems
Introduction: Hardcoded prompts are a maintenance nightmare. When prompts are scattered across your codebase as string literals, updating them requires code changes, testing, and deployment. Prompt templates solve this by separating prompt logic from application code. This guide covers building a robust prompt template system: variable substitution, conditional sections, template inheritance, version control, and A/B […]

The resurgence of design thinking in enterprise software development might seem paradoxical in an era dominated by AI-generated solutions. Yet after witnessing countless projects, the truth is clear: AI makes technical implementation easier while understanding user needs becomes harder. The 5-Phase Design Thinking Framework Why Design Thinking Matters More in the AI Era The proliferation […]
