A heart attack three years ago was a wake-up call for Bernard David, founder and CEO of the ISH Company. After being told that he would only eat plants for the rest of his life, he found that this diet eventually made him “long for those old animals that I used to eat.” Instead of caving in to those urges, David went looking for a plant-based company to invest in.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

Kubernetes continues to grow as the leading container orchestrator for high-performance, cloud-native DevOps, DevSecOps and site reliability engineering (SRE) use cases. While Kubernetes offers excellent orchestration capabilities, it does not, by itself, assure cloud computing costs are optimized. The current state of cloud expenditures for many organizations indicates a lot of waste.
