OpenCost: Solving Kubernetes Cost Visibility Problems

Managing costs in a Kubernetes environment is a significant challenge. As Kubernetes workloads scale, the cost distribution becomes more complex, especially for teams managing multi-cloud clusters. Kubernetes cost visibility or the ability to track where and how resources are consumed  is crucial for effective budgeting and resource optimization. Unfortunately, many Kubernetes cost monitoring tools fall short when it comes to offering real-time, granular visibility. This is where OpenCost shines, solving the cost visibility problem where other tools, like Kubecost, struggle.  Continue reading “OpenCost: Solving Kubernetes Cost Visibility Problems”

End-to-End RAG Solution with AWS Bedrock and LangChain

Introduction

In this blog, we’ll explore the powerful concept of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and how it enhances the capabilities of large language models by integrating real-time, external knowledge sources. You’ll also learn how to build an end-to-end application that leverages this approach for practical use. 

We’ll begin by understanding what RAG is, how it works, and why it’s gaining popularity for building more accurate and context-aware AI solutions. RAG combines the strengths of information retrieval and text generation, enabling language models to reference external, up-to-date knowledge bases beyond their original training data, making outputs more reliable and factually accurate. 

As a practical demonstration, we’ll walk through building a custom RAG application that can intelligently query information from your own PDF documents. To achieve this, we’ll use the AWS Bedrock Llama 3 8B Instruct model, along with the LangChain framework and Streamlit for a user-friendly interface. 

Key Technologies For End-to-End RAG Solution

1. Streamlit:
a.
Interactive frontend for the application.
b.
Simple yet powerful framework for building Python web
apps.

2.
LangChain:
