In my opinion this is one of the best AWS releases of October. This is good blocking and tackling: smoothing out the ergonomics of working with one of the most fundamental AWS services that nearly everyone uses. Great job to the S3 team. #aws #cloud https://lnkd.in/gJ-3-SZb

With AWS Machine Learning capabilities now easily accessible, individuals can build cutting-edge models that deliver real value with minimal effort. However, once you’ve proven a small use case, how do you scale and operationalize your models for enterprise use? To take a project from concept to production-ready, organizations need to incorporate enterprise-grade functionality—like tracking code changes, enforcing security standards, and ensuring policy and governance compliance. Using Terraform to build and manage the lifecycle of an ML/AI platform on AWS provides a scalable approach to address these requirements. Terraform can help orchestrate your infrastructure, ensuring your ML models are production-ready and enterprise-compliant. #MachineLearning #AWS #Terraform #AIOps #DevOps #CloudInnovation

My rumor-mongering is officially something that's happening. This will be a great option for folks either currently looking at Aqueon or using (or OEM Cisco Campaign Management), migrating from premise to Webex Contact Center or just looking for a simpler, more user-friendly integration than Aqueon provided. We are focusing on telephony today, but if omni-channel is needed we can build those on top of Webex CPaaS Solutions or WxCC Digital Channels

The speed at which these models improve is staggering, so is the cost to build them. Only way to keep up is to leverage principles such as AWS Bedrock so you have the flexibility you need to quickly select the model that works best for your task. https://lnkd.in/gNAR63YC https://lnkd.in/g_FtP6e9

Happy Wednesday to all my #cloudcomputing gurus. What a great day at #kubecon2024. It’s been so nice seeing old friends, meeting new customers, & partners, our customers and partners 😅🥂 I hope everyone had as great of a day 🫶🏽🥂 With the first day concluded I wanted to say how proud and happy I am to be on this journey with CAST AI from the beginning. That being said here’s some big news !! Our customers have been asking for a way to harness the power of LLMs without the prohibitive costs of the most popular models,” said co-founder and Chief Product Officer Laurent Gil . “ With #automated model selection and the ability to launch models locally on #spot #GPUs, we’ve made large-scale LLM deployment feasible for companies who need real-time insights without the high price tag. CAST AI, the leading #Kubernetes #automation platform, today announced the launch of #AI Enabler, an innovative #optimization tool that streamlines the deployment of #LLMs and drastically reduces operational expenses. AI Enabler leverages CAST AI’s industry-leading Kubernetes #infrastructure #optimization capabilities to intelligently route queries to the most optimal and cost-effective LLMs, whether they’re #opensource or #commercial, ensuring that the more reliable and cost-effective models are used, without impact on quality or performance. The universe of available LLMs is rapidly expanding. Up until now, infrastructure teams (including #AIOps, #MLOps, and #DevOps) have used time-intensive, manual approaches to identifying the most optimal and cost-effective #LLM for their queries. The end result is that best-fit model assumptions are often made without the needed rigor and diligence. Teams typically default to the latest and greatest LLM, which is costly and has created a substantial barrier to AI adoption. The second release today sees the introduction of the Commercially Supported #Container Live #Migration feature to Cast AI’s platform, a feature designed to ensure zero-downtime migrations for stateful workloads on Kubernetes. The new solution addresses the challenges of moving critical applications like databases and artificial intelligence and machine learning jobs without disrupting operations. Through automating the migration process, organizations can undertake transitions while maintaining continuous uptime. The feature is particularly helpful for businesses running resource-intensive applications that cannot afford downtime. Traditionally, migrating such workloads required shutting down services, which led to costly interruptions. Now, with Cast AI’s solution, businesses can undertake uninterrupted migration and optimize infrastructure usage by consolidating workloads into fewer, cost-efficient nodes.
