Learn how RAG enhances LLM applications with external knowledge sources, examining implementation strategies, challenges, and best practices for building more accurate and informed AI systems.
Explore key insights and patterns from 300+ real-world LLM deployments, revealing how companies are successfully implementing AI in production. This comprehensive analysis covers agent architectures, deployment strategies, data infrastructure, and technical challenges, drawing from ZenML's LLMOps Database to highlight practical solutions in areas like RAG, fine-tuning, cost optimization, and evaluation frameworks.
As organizations rush to adopt generative AI, several major tech companies have proposed maturity models to guide this journey. While these frameworks offer useful vocabulary for discussing organizational progress, they should be viewed as descriptive rather than prescriptive guides. Rather than rigidly following these models, organizations are better served by focusing on solving real problems while maintaining strong engineering practices, building on proven DevOps and MLOps principles while adapting to the unique challenges of GenAI implementation.
