Hello everyone, So today we’re going to see the possible reasons and solutions for the error “ ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10 ” in Python. The main reason for this error is that in our program, we’re passing a non-integer value to a place where the interpreter expects an integer value. To understand the above lines, let’s take an example. age = int(input("Enter your age: ")) When you run the above line, the interpreter will ask you to enter your age, when you will enter the a

When we are using Leader and Followers, we need to ensure that messages between the leader and each follower are kept in order, with a retry mechanism for any lost messages. We need to do this while keeping the cost of new connections low, so that opening new connections doesn't increase the system's latency. A Single Socket Channel maintains the order of the requests sent to a server by using a single TCP connection.

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.

When the state needs to be updated by multiple concurrent clients, we need it to be safely updated with one at a time changes. Generally locks are used to protect against concurrent modifications. But if the tasks being performed are time consuming, like writing to a file, blocking all the other calling threads until the task is completed can have severe impact on overall system throughput and latency.

Multi-tenant architecture allows software vendors to realize tremendous efficiencies by maintaining a single application stack instead of separate database instances while meeting data privacy needs. When you use a data warehouse to power your multi-tenant analytics, the proper approach is vital. Multi-tenant analytics is NOT the primary use case with traditional data warehouses, causing data security challenges.

While MTTA and MTTR are good starting points, they're no longer enough. With the rise in complexity, it can be difficult to gain insights into your services’ operational health.
