A Kubernetes Operator is a method of packaging, deploying, and managing a Kubernetes application. Conceptually, an Operator takes human operational knowledge and encodes it into software that is packaged with the application. This could include how to deploy a complex application, how to handle failing nodes or persistent storage, and how to upgrade an application […]

Foundational models (FMs) are trained on large volumes of data and use billions of parameters. However, in order to answer customers’ questions related to domain-specific private data, they need to reference an authoritative knowledge base outside of the model’s training data sources. This is commonly achieved using a technique known as Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG). […]
