Mixture-of-Experts explained: why the biggest models are mostly idle
Imagine an AI model with one trillion parameters , but only 32 billion of them participate in processing any particular token. The remaining 968 billion parameters are effectively sitting out that com

Best practices: scalable architectures for data systems
Scalable data architectures in 2025 demand more than adding servers—they require modularity, elasticity, and deep observability. This guide breaks down modern best practices, from event-driven designs and data mesh to storage-compute decoupling and AI-native architectures, with real-world case studies from Netflix, Uber, and Spotify.

Empirical: throughput comparison of streaming architectures
This empirical analysis benchmarks the throughput of modern streaming architectures, comparing Apache Kafka, Apache Pulsar, Redpanda, and Flink-based pipelines. Using standardized workloads and realistic latency constraints, we dissect their design trade-offs, operational costs, and observed performance under varied load conditions.
