Today, there is little dispute that software is indeed eating the world. Every part of our life includes software, from the way we watch movies, to the way we rideshare, reserve hotels, communicate, shop, etc. Marc Andreessen’s article, “Why Software Is Eating the World”, tells the story and uncovers why all companies are now software companies.

Cloud computing and DevOps are two aspects of the technological shift which are completely inseparable. The aim of DevOps is to streamline development so that the requirements of the users can make it into application production while the cloud offers automation to the process of provisioning and scaling so that application changes can be done.

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.
