MLOps for GenAI Applications // MLOps Podcast #256 with Harcharan Kabbay, Lead Machine Learning Engineer at World Wide Technology.// AbstractThe discussion begins with a brief overview of the Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) framework, highlighting its significance in enhancing AI capabilities by combining retrieval mechanisms with generative models.The podcast further explores the integration of MLOps, focusing on best practices for embedding the RAG framework into a CI/CD pipeline. This includes ensuring robust monitoring, effective version control, and automated deployment processes that maintain the agility and efficiency of AI applications.A significant portion of the conversation is dedicated to the importance of automation in platform provisioning, emphasizing tools like Terraform. The discussion extends to application design, covering essential elements such as key vaults, configurations, and strategies for seamless promotion across different environments (development, testing, and production). We'll also address how to enhance the security posture of applications through network firewalls, key rotation, and other measures.Let's talk about the power of Kubernetes and related tools to aid a good application design.The podcast highlights the principles of good application design, including proper observability and eliminating single points of failure. I would share strategies to reduce development time by creating templates for GitHub repositories by application types to be re-used, also templates for pull requests, thereby minimizing human errors and streamlining the development process.// BioHarcharan is an AI and machine learning expert with a robust background in Kubernetes, DevOps, and automation.
