Topic hub

AI infrastructure engineering.

AI infrastructure is the production platform layer around model-powered systems. It connects model routing, RAG, Kubernetes runtime, observability, cost control, and policy into something teams can operate safely.

01

Coverage

What this hub covers.

A practical hub covering AI gateways, RAG platforms, Kubernetes/EKS runtime, observability, token cost controls, policy, and production operations.

AI gateway routing, rate limits, provider failover, and prompt policy.

RAG knowledge platforms with citations, source freshness, and clear answer boundaries.

Kubernetes/EKS runtime patterns for AI services and platform workloads.

Token, cost, latency, and provider-health observability.

Policy-as-code and data-handling controls around AI requests.

Case 24 · Flagship

Architecture Rehearsal

  • Go
  • Kubernetes
  • Helm

Teams discover architectural blast radius only after a change lands in production

Pre-deploy break risk → verified after change

Case 25 · Flagship

TwinOps Control Plane

  • OpenUSD
  • Go
  • Kubernetes

Industrial digital twins are often demos, not operable infrastructure with drift, reconciliation, and incident replay

Compose → detect drift → reconcile

Case 19 · Flagship

AI Runtime Platform

  • Python
  • vLLM
  • KServe

AI workloads often start as API calls but become production systems that need identity, policy, scaling, telemetry, and clear ownership

Every model call: policy + trace + budget

Case 26 · Flagship

AI Infra Control Plane

  • Python
  • Kubernetes
  • Terraform

Private AI platforms need shared governance across identity, policy, audit, cost, and SLO signals — not scattered service configs

Private AI with explicit platform contracts

Case 02 · Flagship

Cloud-Native AI Gateway

  • Gateway
  • Providers
  • OpenTelemetry

AI usage needs routing, policy, budget awareness, and provider resilience

One boundary: rate, budget, fallback, OTel

Case 08 · Flagship

RAG Knowledge Platform

  • Export
  • Index
  • Retrieve

Engineering knowledge is spread across repositories, runbooks, tickets, architecture notes, and project history

Cited answers from project evidence

Case 07

LLM Infrastructure Runtime

  • Queue
  • vLLM
  • KServe

LLM workloads move faster than traditional platform controls and can quickly become expensive, opaque, and hard to operate

LLM serving with operability signals

Case 21

Cost and Token Observability

  • Meter
  • Owner
  • Budget

AI and cloud costs can grow quietly when usage is disconnected from teams, services, and deployment changes

Token spend visible before finance week
