What are the core components of LangChain?

LangChain is one of the most popular frameworks for building applications with large language models (LLMs). From intelligent chatbots to document summarizers and retrieval-based assistants, LangChain gives developers the building blocks they need to turn LLMs into functioning products. But to use LangChain effectively, you need to understand its structure. This blog will walk you through the core LangChain components, what they do, and how they work together to support powerful LLM workflows.

Common prompt engineering techniques all developers should master

Prompt engineering is essential for maximizing large language model (LLM) performance. This blog covers eight core techniques: zero-shot prompting for basic tasks, few-shot prompting for more nuanced outputs, chain-of-thought prompting for stepwise reasoning, instruction tuning for specificity, role prompting to control tone and expertise, output formatting for structured responses, prompt chaining to break complex workflows into stages, and prompt testing to refine results.

Service-oriented architecture vs. microservices for System Design

Selecting the right architectural pattern is crucial for building robust and scalable systems in today's fast-paced software environment. Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Microservices are two prominent approaches, each with unique advantages. SOA emphasizes centralized governance, reusability, and interoperability, making it suitable for large enterprises. In contrast, Microservices adopt a decentralized model, allowing independent services to communicate via lightweight protocols, promoting agility and rapid deployment. Understanding the distinctions between these architectures is essential for aligning system design with business goals. This blog will compare SOA and Microservices, exploring their key features, development practices, and ideal applications to guide software development decisions.

How does prompt engineering differ from traditional programming?

Compared to traditional programming, where code compiles into deterministic logic, prompt engineering is a form of controlled ambiguity. It’s an interface where human language meets machine probability. So, how does prompt engineering differ from traditional programming? The differences are technical, behavioral, and philosophical. In this blog, we’ll break them down and also cover the tools, skills, and more.
