AI on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
Trust and Stability: RHEL provides the mission-critical foundation needed for workloads where security and reliability cannot be compromised.
Predictive vs. Generative: Acknowledging the hype of GenAI while maintaining support for traditional machine learning algorithms.
Determinism: The challenge of bringing consistency and security to emerging AI technologies in production environments.
Rama-Llama & Containerization
Developer Simplicity: Rama-Llama helps developers run local LLMs easily without being "locked in" to specific engines; it supports Podman, Docker, and various inference engines like Llama.cpp and Whisper.cpp.
Production Path: The tool is designed to "fade away" after helping package the model and stack into a container that can be deployed directly to Kubernetes.
Behind the Firewall: Addressing the needs of industries (like aircraft maintenance) that require AI to stay strictly on-premises.
Enterprise AI Infrastructure
Red Hat AI: A commercial product offering tools for model customization, including pre-training, fine-tuning, and RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation).
Inference Engines: James highlights the difference between Llama.cpp (for smaller/edge hardware) and vLLM, which has become the enterprise standard for multi-GPU data center inferencing.

627: Event Modeling Pt2

Mike lays it all out for 2017 and makes the case that the small independent development model is fundamentally doomed. We spend the last Coder of the year being very honest about what hasn't worked in our businesses, about the limitations that life and circumstances put on us all & how we try to make the very best of the hand we’re dealt.

It’s not a typical end of year episode, but it might be the most important.
