Embedding Models Deep Dive: From Sentence Transformers to Production Deployment

Introduction: Embeddings are the foundation of modern AI applications—they transform text, images, and other data into dense vectors that capture semantic meaning. Understanding how embedding models work, their strengths and limitations, and how to choose between them is essential for building effective search, RAG, and similarity systems. This guide covers the landscape of embedding models:… Continue reading

Prompt Optimization Strategies: From Structure to Automatic Refinement

Introduction: Prompt optimization is the systematic process of improving prompts to achieve better LLM outputs—higher accuracy, more consistent formatting, reduced latency, and lower costs. Unlike ad-hoc prompt engineering, optimization treats prompts as artifacts that can be measured, tested, and iteratively improved. This guide covers the techniques that make prompts more effective: structural patterns that improve… Continue reading

Scalability – Scale Out/In vs Scale Up/Down (Horizontal Scaling vs Vertical Scaling)

When you work with Cloud Computing or normal Scalable highly available applications you would normally hear two terminologies called Scale Out and Scale Up or often called as Horizontal Scaling and Vertical Scaling.  I thought about covering basics and provide more clarity for developers and IT specialists. What is Scalability? Scalability is the capability of… Continue reading

LLM Inference Optimization: From KV Cache to Speculative Decoding

Introduction: LLM inference optimization is the art of making models respond faster while using fewer resources. As LLMs grow larger and usage scales, the difference between naive and optimized inference can mean 10x cost reduction and sub-second latencies instead of multi-second waits. This guide covers the techniques that matter most: KV cache optimization to avoid… Continue reading

Redis Cache–Azure Plans

Azure Redis Cache, a secure data cache based on Open source Redis Cache, which will provide you a fully managed/serviced instance from Microsoft. Means you don’t have to bear the burden of managing the server/software patches etc.. What is Redis Cache? Redis is an open source (BSD licensed), in-memory data structure store, used as a… Continue reading
