LLM

I keep coming back to llama.cpp for local inference—it gives you control that Ollama and others abstract away, and it just works. Easy to run GGUF models interactively with llama-cli or expose an OpenAI-compatible HTTP API with llama-server.

OpenCode is an open source AI coding agent you can run in the terminal (TUI + CLI) with optional desktop and IDE surfaces. This is the OpenCode Quickstart: install, verify, connect a model/provider, and run real workflows (CLI + API).

LLM inference looks like “just another API” — until latency spikes, queues back up, and your GPUs sit at 95% memory with no obvious explanation.

OpenClaw is a self-hosted AI assistant designed to run with local LLM runtimes like Ollama or with cloud-based models such as Claude Sonnet.

Most local AI setups start the same way: a model, a runtime, and a chat interface.

Temporal is an open-source, enterprise-grade workflow engine that enables developers to build durable, scalable, and fault-tolerant workflow applications using familiar programming languages like Go.

LLM systems fail in ways that traditional API monitoring cannot surface — queues fill silently, GPU memory saturates long before CPU looks busy, and latency blows up at the batching layer rather than the application layer. This guide covers an end-to-end observability strategy for LLM inference and LLM applications: what to measure, how to instrument it with Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, and Grafana, and how to deploy the telemetry pipeline at scale.

Chunking is the most under-estimated hyperparameter in Retrieval ‑ Augmented Generation (RAG): it silently determines what your LLM “sees”, how expensive ingestion becomes, and how much of the LLM’s context window you burn per answer.

Observability is the foundation of reliable production systems.

Without metrics, dashboards, and alerting, Kubernetes clusters drift, AI workloads fail silently, and latency regressions go unnoticed until users complain.

Production-focused guide to building RAG systems: chunking, vector stores, hybrid retrieval, reranking, evaluation, and when to choose RAG over fine-tuning.

Strategic guide to hosting large language models locally with Ollama, llama.cpp, vLLM, or in the cloud. Compare tools, performance trade-offs, and cost considerations.

A performance engineering hub for running LLMs efficiently: runtime behavior, bottlenecks, benchmarks, and the real constraints that shape throughput and latency.

Self-hosting LLMs keeps data, models, and inference under your control-a practical path to AI sovereignty for teams, enterprises, nations.

Running large language models locally gives you privacy, offline capability, and zero API costs. This benchmark reveals exactly what one can expect from 14 popular LLMs on Ollama on an RTX 4080.
