Many organizations are building artificial intelligence (AI) applications using Large Language Models (LLMs) to deliver new experiences to their customers, from content creation to customer service and data analysis. However, the substantial size and intensive computational requirements of these models may have challenges in configuring, deploying, and scaling them effectively on graphic processing units (GPUs). […]

Cloud native technologies empower organizations to build and run scalable applications in modern, dynamic environments. Among Cloud Native patterns, Containers, and Kubernetes are mainstream across multiple businesses. According to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation Annual Survey of 2022, 44% of respondents are already using containers for nearly all applications and business segments, and another 35% say containers are […]

Kubernetes has become the de-facto standard for container orchestration, providing powerful capabilities for deploying and managing stateless workloads. However, users running stateful applications on Kubernetes face unique challenges, especially in VMware environments. A key issue is that the virtual disks used by stateful apps can’t be attached to pods as easily as ephemeral storage. The […]
