Introduction: Amazon Bedrock is AWS’s fully managed service for building generative AI applications with foundation models. Launched at AWS re:Invent 2023, Bedrock provides a unified API to access models from Anthropic, Meta, Mistral, Cohere, and Amazon’s own Titan family. What sets Bedrock apart is its deep integration with the AWS ecosystem, including built-in RAG with […]

Conversation History Management: Building Memory for Multi-Turn AI Applications
Introduction: Chatbots and conversational AI need memory. Without conversation history, every message exists in isolation—the model can’t reference what was said before, follow up on previous topics, or maintain coherent multi-turn dialogues. But history management is tricky: context windows are limited, old messages may be irrelevant, and naive approaches quickly hit token limits. This guide […]

Introduction: OpenAI’s DevDay 2023 marked a pivotal moment in AI development with the announcement of GPT-4 Turbo and the Assistants API. These releases fundamentally changed how developers build AI-powered applications, offering 128K context windows, native JSON mode, improved function calling, and persistent conversation threads. After integrating these capabilities into production systems, I’ve found that the […]

Introduction: Prompt engineering has emerged as one of the most critical skills in the AI era. The difference between a mediocre AI response and an exceptional one often comes down to how you structure your prompt. After years of working with large language models across production systems, I’ve distilled the most effective techniques into this […]
Read more →Document Processing Pipelines: From Raw Files to Vector-Ready Chunks
Introduction: Document processing is the foundation of any RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) system. Before you can search and retrieve relevant information, you need to extract text from various file formats, split it into meaningful chunks, and generate embeddings for vector search. The quality of your document processing pipeline directly impacts retrieval accuracy and ultimately the quality […]
Read more →LLM Caching Strategies: From Exact Match to Semantic Similarity
Introduction: LLM API calls are expensive and slow. Caching is your first line of defense against runaway costs and latency. But caching LLM responses isn’t straightforward—the same question phrased differently should return the same cached answer. This guide covers caching strategies for LLM applications: exact match caching for deterministic queries, semantic caching using embeddings for […]
