🎓 AUTHORITY NOTE Drawing from 20+ years of enterprise architecture experience and having migrated dozens of production systems to serverless, representing millions of Lambda invocations monthly. This is battle-tested, production-proven knowledge. Executive Summary There’s a moment in every architect’s career when a technology fundamentally rewrites your mental model of how systems should work. For me, […]

Read more →Serverless AI Architecture: Building Scalable LLM Applications
Three years ago, I built my first serverless LLM application. It failed spectacularly. Cold starts made responses take 15 seconds. Timeouts killed long-running requests. Costs spiraled out of control. After architecting 30+ serverless AI systems, I’ve learned what works. Here’s the complete guide to building scalable serverless LLM applications. Figure 1: Serverless AI Architecture Overview […]
