If you’ve been writing C# for more than a decade, you’ve witnessed something remarkable: the language you learned in the early 2000s bears only a superficial resemblance to what we write today. Modern C# development feels like a different language entirely. C# Syntax Evolution: 2002 vs 2025 The Transformation Journey When .NET Framework first appeared, […]

LLM Monitoring and Observability: Metrics, Traces, and Alerts
Introduction: LLM applications are notoriously difficult to debug. Unlike traditional software where errors are obvious, LLM issues manifest as subtle quality degradation, unexpected costs, or slow responses. Proper observability is essential for production LLM systems. This guide covers monitoring strategies: tracking latency, tokens, and costs; implementing distributed tracing for complex chains; structured logging for debugging; […]
Read more →LLM Security Best Practices: Protecting AI Applications from Attacks
Introduction: LLM applications face unique security challenges. Prompt injection attacks can hijack model behavior, sensitive data can leak through responses, and malicious outputs can harm users. Traditional security measures don’t fully address these risks—you need LLM-specific defenses. This guide covers practical security strategies: validating and sanitizing inputs, detecting prompt injection attempts, filtering sensitive information from […]

The data engineering landscape has undergone a fundamental transformation over the past decade. What once required massive Hadoop clusters has evolved into a sophisticated ecosystem of specialized tools: Kafka for ingestion, Spark for processing, and dbt for transformation. Modern Data Stack Architecture The Paradigm Shift: Monolithic → Modular The old approach centered around monolithic platforms […]

Read more →Streaming Responses for LLMs: Implementing Server-Sent Events
Streaming LLM responses dramatically improves user experience. After implementing streaming for 20+ LLM applications, I’ve learned what works. Here’s the complete guide to implementing Server-Sent Events for LLM streaming. Figure 1: Streaming Architecture Why Streaming Matters Streaming LLM responses provides significant benefits: Perceived performance: Users see results immediately, not after 10+ seconds Better UX: Progressive […]
