Codetown ::: a software developer's community
After reviewing architecture models from several vendors and industry organizations, I believe we are witnessing an early evolutionary period, rather than the culmination of PaaS. The lack of consensus on specific Platform as a Service architectural components and distinct architectural model demonstrates Cloud immaturity.

Ana Petkovska discusses creating platform teams, establishing the team API, engagement of early adopters, easing adoption and providing a high quality product.
By Ana PetkovskaDeepSeek open-sourced DeepSeek-V3, a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) LLM containing 671B parameters. It was pre-trained on 14.8T tokens using 2.788M GPU hours and outperforms other open-source models on a range of LLM benchmarks, including MMLU, MMLU-Pro, and GPQA.
By Anthony AlfordLLM accuracy is a challenging topic to address and is much more multi-dimensional than a simple accuracy score. Denys Linkov introduces a framework for creating micro metrics to evaluate LLM systems, focusing on goal-aligned metrics that improve performance and reliability. By adopting an iterative "crawl, walk, run" methodology, teams can incrementally develop observability.
