Introduction: Amazon Bedrock is AWS’s fully managed service for building generative AI applications with foundation models. Launched at AWS re:Invent 2023, Bedrock provides a unified API to access models from Anthropic, Meta, Mistral, Cohere, and Amazon’s own Titan family. What sets Bedrock apart is its deep integration with the AWS ecosystem, including built-in RAG with […]

Conversation History Management: Building Memory for Multi-Turn AI Applications
Introduction: Chatbots and conversational AI need memory. Without conversation history, every message exists in isolation—the model can’t reference what was said before, follow up on previous topics, or maintain coherent multi-turn dialogues. But history management is tricky: context windows are limited, old messages may be irrelevant, and naive approaches quickly hit token limits. This guide […]
Read more →Embedding Search and Similarity: Building Semantic Search Systems
Introduction: Semantic search using embeddings has transformed how we find information. Unlike keyword search, embeddings capture meaning—finding documents about “machine learning” when you search for “AI training.” This guide covers building production embedding search systems: choosing embedding models, computing and storing vectors efficiently, implementing similarity search with various distance metrics, and optimizing for speed and […]
Read more →Batch Processing for LLMs: Maximizing Throughput with Async Execution and Rate Limiting
Introduction: Processing thousands of LLM requests efficiently requires batch processing strategies that maximize throughput while respecting rate limits and managing costs. Individual API calls are inefficient for bulk operations—batch processing enables parallel execution, request queuing, and optimized resource utilization. This guide covers practical batch processing patterns: async concurrent execution, request queuing with backpressure, rate-limited batch […]

Introduction: OpenAI’s DevDay 2023 marked a pivotal moment in AI development with the announcement of GPT-4 Turbo and the Assistants API. These releases fundamentally changed how developers build AI-powered applications, offering 128K context windows, native JSON mode, improved function calling, and persistent conversation threads. After integrating these capabilities into production systems, I’ve found that the […]
Read more →Document Processing Pipelines: From Raw Files to Vector-Ready Chunks
Introduction: Document processing is the foundation of any RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) system. Before you can search and retrieve relevant information, you need to extract text from various file formats, split it into meaningful chunks, and generate embeddings for vector search. The quality of your document processing pipeline directly impacts retrieval accuracy and ultimately the quality […]
