Perplexity Bets on AI Multi-Model Orchestration That Routes Itself

Perplexity's new hybrid inference orchestrator decides mid-task what runs on your laptop and what goes to a frontier model. Here's what's real, what's a keynote trick, and why the routing decision is the hard part.

Kubernetes Was Built for Stateless Requests — AI Cloud Infrastructure Companies in India Are Building What Agents Actually Need

Kubernetes optimized the world for stateless HTTP requests. AI agents are long-running, stateful processes that break every assumption the platform was built on — from scheduling heuristics to security models. Here's what the infrastructure mismatch looks like in production, and why a new abstraction layer is finally arriving.

The Agentic Shift: Architecting Memory for Persistent AI Systems

As AI workloads shift from transient exchanges to persistent agentic systems, GPU memory bottlenecks become the primary architectural challenge requiring new context tiers.
