Deploying a multimodal RAG application with Gemma 3 and CircleCI on GKE

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has transformed how applications interact with Large Language Models (LLMs). RAGs ground LLM responses in external knowledge, improves accuracy, and reduces hallucinations. But traditional RAG systems have a significant limitation: they only process text. Multimodal RAG addresses this limitation by processing and understanding multiple data types (text, images, and potentially audio).

Top 11 Java APM Tools: A Comprehensive Comparison

Are your Java applications running at their optimal performance, or is there room for improvement to make them faster and more efficient? With so many services depending on Java, keeping applications responsive and reliable is a core part of modern software engineering. This blog walks you through the leading Java Application Performance Monitoring (APM) tools, with a clear comparison to help you choose the right option for your needs.

{Unscripted} Autonomous Code Maintenance

Nothing drains developer productivity like codebase maintenance. The endless cycle of dependency upgrades, bug fixes, refactoring, and paying down technical debt is tedious, error-prone work that pulls engineers away from building new features. Harness Autonomous Code Maintenance (ACM) turns these manual chores into automated, intent-driven workflows. Developers can now state their intent in plain English, with prompts like, "Upgrade the front end from React 15.6 to 16.4". From there, the Harness AI agent drives the workflow.

{unscripted} AI for DevOps and DBDevOps

Many software engineers are experts in application code but not in the nuances of creating a production-ready delivery pipeline. Architect Mode acts as a seasoned DevOps expert, engaging the user in a conversation to design a pipeline that incorporates organizational best practices for security, quality, and compliance from the very beginning. It’s like having a personal DevOps architect as a partner.

{unscripted} IDP Knowledge Agent

We're making Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) more accessible with a natural language assistant. Developers can ask questions like, "What are the failing checks for my service's scorecard?" or "Who is the owner of a service?" to find metadata instantly. The agent also bridges the gap to action by suggesting and executing self-service workflows, like creating a new repo or onboarding a new engineer. It can even assist in generating new workflows, turning complex processes into simple conversational tasks.
