  • Loading and Indexing data into a vector database

    Vector databases store data as high-dimensional vectors, which are numerical representations of data points. Loading data into a vector database involves converting your data into these vector embeddings. Indexing is a crucial step that follows loading, as it organizes these vectors in a way that allows for efficient similarity searches.Here’s a breakdown of the process: Read more

    Demonstrate the concepts of building a Spring AI chatbot with both general knowledge RAG and an FAQ section into a single comprehensive article.Building a Powerful Spring AI Chatbot with RAG and FAQLarge Language Models (LLMs) offer incredible potential for building intelligent chatbots. However, to create truly useful and context-aware chatbots, especially for specific domains, we… Read more

  • Vector Database Internals

    Vector databases are specialized databases designed to store, manage, and efficiently query high-dimensional vectors. These vectors are numerical representations of data, often generated by machine learning models to capture the semantic meaning of the underlying data (text, images, audio, etc.). Here’s a breakdown of the key internal components and concepts: 1. Vector Embeddings: 2. Data… Read more

  • RAG with locally running LLM

    Sample code to enable running the LLM locally. This will involve using a local LLM instead of OpenAI. Key Changes: To run this code with a local LLM: Important Considerations: Read more

  • Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) with LLMs

    Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) is a technique that enhances the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) by enabling them to access and incorporate information from external sources during the response generation process. This approach addresses some of the inherent limitations of LLMs, such as their inability to access up-to-date information or domain-specific knowledge. How RAG… Read more

  • Kafka Disk I/O Tuning Guide

    Disk I/O is a critical bottleneck for Kafka performance. Kafka relies heavily on the file system for storing and retrieving messages, and inefficient disk I/O can lead to increased latency, reduced throughput, and overall system degradation. Here’s a guide to help you tune Kafka for optimal disk I/O performance: 1. Understanding Kafka’s Disk I/O Patterns… Read more

  • Kafka Network Latency Tuning

    Network latency is a critical factor in Kafka performance, especially for applications requiring near-real-time data processing. High network latency can significantly increase the time it takes for messages to travel between producers, brokers, and consumers, impacting overall system performance. Here’s a guide to help you effectively tune Kafka for low network latency: 1. Understanding Network… Read more

  • Kafka CPU Tuning Guide

    Optimizing CPU usage in your Kafka cluster is essential for achieving high throughput, low latency, and overall stability. Here’s a comprehensive guide to help you effectively tune Kafka for CPU efficiency: 1. Understanding Kafka’s CPU Consumption 2. Monitoring CPU Usage 3. Tuning Strategies 4. Best Practices By following these guidelines, you can effectively tune your… Read more

  • gRPC vs HTTP

    gRPC (gRPC Remote Procedure Calls) and HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) are both fundamental protocols used for communication between applications, but they differ significantly in their design, features, and typical use cases. Here’s a comprehensive comparison: gRPC HTTP Key Differences Summarized: Feature gRPC HTTP Protocol RPC framework over HTTP/2 Application protocol (various versions) Data Format Primarily… Read more
