.NET AI Performance Optimization: Reducing Latency and Costs
Last year, I inherited a .NET AI application that was struggling. Response times averaged 2.3 seconds, costs were spiraling, and users were complaining. After three months of optimization, we cut latency by 87% and reduced costs by 72%. Here’s what I learned about optimizing .NET AI applications for production. Figure 1: .NET AI Performance Optimization […]
Read more →Streaming LLM Responses: SSE, WebSockets, and Real-Time Token Delivery
Introduction: Streaming responses dramatically improve perceived latency in LLM applications. Instead of waiting seconds for a complete response, users see tokens appear in real-time, creating a more engaging experience. Implementing streaming correctly requires understanding Server-Sent Events (SSE), handling partial tokens, managing connection lifecycle, and gracefully handling errors mid-stream. This guide covers practical streaming patterns: basic […]
Read more →Architecting the Moment: Real-Time Data Processing in Modern Cloud Systems
After two decades of architecting data systems across financial services, healthcare, and e-commerce, I’ve witnessed the evolution from batch-only processing to today’s sophisticated real-time architectures. The shift isn’t just about speed—it’s about fundamentally changing how organizations make decisions and respond to events. This article shares battle-tested insights on building production-grade real-time data processing systems in […]
Read more →Rate Limiting for LLM APIs: Token Buckets, Queues, and Adaptive Throttling
Introduction: LLM APIs have strict rate limits—requests per minute, tokens per minute, and concurrent request limits. Exceeding these limits results in 429 errors that can cascade through your application. Effective rate limiting on your side prevents hitting API limits, provides fair access across users, and enables graceful degradation under load. This guide covers practical rate […]
Read more →LLM Fine-Tuning: From Data Preparation to Production Deployment
Introduction: Fine-tuning adapts pre-trained language models to specific tasks, domains, or behaviors. While prompting works for many use cases, fine-tuning delivers better performance, lower latency, and reduced costs for specialized applications. This guide covers modern fine-tuning approaches: full fine-tuning for maximum customization, LoRA and QLoRA for efficient parameter updates, preparing high-quality training data, using OpenAI […]
