Deploying Computer Vision Models as Mircroservices
SUMMARY
Deploying a computer vision model as a microservice keeps vision logic isolated from application code, which matters because models often require specific versions of Python, CUDA, or specialized hardware that you do not want to force on the rest of your stack. The microservice pattern also handles bursty workloads

What is TensorRT?
SUMMARY
TensorRT is NVIDIA's inference optimization framework, built to run machine learning models as fast as possible on NVIDIA GPU hardware via CUDA cores. To use it, you typically train in PyTorch or TensorFlow and then convert your model to TensorRT format. This post covers the CUDA vs

What is Amazon Rekognition?
SUMMARY
Amazon Rekognition is an off-the-shelf computer vision API that detects and classifies a fixed set of common objects (furniture, plants, and similar generic categories) from images sent via HTTP. It works well for those predefined categories, but if your application needs to detect domain-specific objects not

Building vs. Buying a Computer Vision Platform
SUMMARY
Building a computer vision pipeline in-house requires stitching together image upload, annotation, dataset versioning, training, deployment, and active learning, and the result is typically fragile, hard to maintain, and difficult to debug when components break. This post examines seven recurring problems teams encounter when building their own infrastructure,
