Reducing False Positives in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Semantic Caching: a Banking Case Study
In this article, author Elakkiya Daivam discusses why Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and semantic caching techniques are powerful levers for reducing false positives in AI powered applications. She shares the insights from a production-grade evaluation with 1,000 query variations tested across seven bi-encoder models.

A Plan-Do-Check-Act Framework for AI Code Generation
AI code generation tools promise faster development but often create quality issues, integration problems, and delivery delays. A structured Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle can maintain code quality while leveraging AI capabilities. Through working agreements, structured prompts, and continuous retrospection, it asserts accountability over code while guiding AI to produce tested, maintainable software.

Bringing AI Inference to Java with ONNX: a Practical Guide for Enterprise Architects
Java applications can now run transformer-based AI models directly within the JVM—without Python, REST wrappers, or microservices. This guide shows how to integrate ONNX-powered inference with tokenizer support, GPU acceleration, modular deployment, and observability, enabling architects in regulated domains to adopt AI without disrupting compliance or CI/CD workflows.

A Pipeline Approach to Language Migrations
Automated language migrations can be made reliable and maintainable by structuring them as pipelines with clear, testable stages. This avoids the pitfalls of big-bang rewrites while providing transparency and modularity. The pipeline approach ensures idiomatic code, preserves legacy business logic, and supports large-scale transformations from outdated systems.

Disaggregation in Large Language Models: the Next Evolution in AI Infrastructure
Large Language Model (LLM) inference faces a fundamental challenge: the same hardware that excels at processing input prompts struggles with generating responses, and vice versa. Disaggregated serving architectures solve this by separating these distinct computational phases, delivering throughput improvements and better resource utilization while reducing costs.
