As software tools capable of simulating human-like interactions, AI agents can understand, execute, and adapt to user requests. They are not merely passive systems responding to pre-defined commands but actively work to understand broader goals, learn from interactions, and dynamically refine responses. A recent Capgemini survey of large enterprises reveals that one in ten organizations is already deploying AI agents, with over half planning to explore these technologies within the coming year. **Forrester Research** also highlights AI web agents as one of the top 10 emerging technologies for 2024, with VP [Brian Hopkins](https://www.forrester.com/blogs/author/brian_hopkins/?utm_source=pr&utm_medium=pr_pitch&utm_campaign=tech) calling them perhaps the most exciting development on this year's [list](https://www.forrester.com/blogs/top-10-emerging-technologies-for-2024/?utm_source=pr&utm_medium=pr_pitch&utm_campaign=tech). The concept of [Large Action Models](https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/rabbit-ai-large-action-models-lams/) (LAMs) has become a focal point in discussions about AI agents. Rabbit AI, a pioneering player in this space, has introduced a product—a custom OS-equipped device supporting a trainable AI assistant capable of handling a wide range of actions. This assistant leverages LAMs to manage tasks such as making reservations, giving directions, ordering services, and adapting to user-specific prompts. Imagine a team of robotic coworkers, each able to support various business operations, be it customer service, data analysis, or scheduling tasks. These agents act as powerful extensions of human teams, handling operational tasks so human team members can focus on higher-level strategic work. ### Large Action Models: A Step Toward the Future As AI technology advances, an exciting new category emerges: Large Action Models (LAMs). Large action models have a more expansive role than traditional language models, which primarily generate text. They're built to "generate" or perform actions, executing complex tasks based on clear instructions. This progression brings us closer to [artificial general intelligence](https://www.cloudraft.io/what-is/artificial-general-intelligence) (AGI), the idea of AI capable of performing various tasks. Although AGI remains a distant vision, the development of LAMs brings us a step nearer to it in practical, impactful ways. ### What are Large Action Models? Large action models combine multiple components, creating a system capable of interpreting instructions, understanding context, and performing diverse tasks. Think of them as supercharged LLMs that operate with [multimodal](https://www.cloudraft.io/what-is/multimodal-ai) capabilities, meaning they can handle not just text but also images, videos, and more. Additionally, they're designed to interact with external tools and environments, empowering them to execute actions within complex workflows seamlessly. #### Capabilities and Real-World Applications Large action models are reshaping how we think about automation. They go beyond handling complex queries; they adapt to a range of situations and user requirements. For example, MultiOn agents use websites and online services to perform a variety of tasks, all based on a simple prompt. With applications in areas like personalized marketing, these agents are positioned to change how people interact with digital services by simplifying workflows, automating repetitive tasks, and handling entire workflows. - **Zero-shot Learning**: LAMs are designed to perform new tasks without explicit training, relying on the vast data they're trained on. This enables them to take on unfamiliar tasks with minimal guidance, broadening their application scope. - **Few-shot Learning**: LAMs can also handle custom tasks by learning from a few examples provided in the input. This lets us adapt them to specific needs or contexts, adding a level of flexibility that traditional automation tools often lack. #### Potential Limitations Despite their promise, LAMs face some hurdles: 1. **Latency Issues**: Efficiency is a core design goal for LAMs, yet complex, multi-step tasks can introduce delays. This can impact user experience, particularly in environments where real-time responses are crucial. 2. **Experimental Phase**: Many LAMs are still in development, and while their capabilities are impressive, they may not be fully reliable in all real-world applications. Continued refinement and testing will be key to achieving consistency. 3. **Data Dependency**: Like any advanced AI, LAMs require extensive datasets to make accurate, informed decisions. In domains where data is scarce, their performance may be limited. 4. **Complexity of Integration**: Integrating LAMs into existing systems requires sophisticated infrastructure and support for multimodal processing, which can be challenging and costly. ## Understanding AI Web Agents AI web agents are revolutionizing how we approach automation. These agents gather information from their surroundings, process that data, and take actions to transform the environment—whether physical, digital, or a blend of both. As technology continues to advance, many AI agents are becoming increasingly capable of learning and adapting their behavior over time. They explore new solutions to challenges, continuously refining their approach until they achieve the desired outcome. ![Pipeline of how AI Web Agent functions](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/large-action-models/pipeline_hbp7lo.webp) Pipeline of how AI Web Agent functions ### AI Web Agents vs. Traditional Automation Tools For many years, businesses have relied on traditional automation tools to handle repetitive, rule-based tasks—things like data entry, email marketing, and scheduling. These tools were highly effective for straightforward, repetitive processes but often lacked flexibility and intelligence when faced with more complex scenarios. That's where AI-powered web agents come in, offering a much more sophisticated approach to automation. Unlike traditional automation tools, which rely on fixed rules and processes, AI agents leverage advanced technologies such as machine learning, [natural language processing](https://www.ibm.com/think/topics/natural-language-processing) (NLP), and [cognitive computing](https://cloud.google.com/discover/what-is-cognitive-computing). This allows them to perform tasks in a much more flexible manner, adapting to new information and evolving conditions in real time. With these capabilities, AI agents can learn from past experiences and make smarter decisions without being explicitly programmed for every possible scenario. In the past, web automation often required businesses to write custom scripts for each website, using techniques like DOM parsing and XPath-based interactions. However, these scripts could easily break if a website's layout or structure changed. AI agents, on the other hand, have evolved beyond such limitations, offering a more resilient and dynamic approach. ### Key Technologies Behind AI Web Agents AI web agents harness a suite of advanced technologies to bring a new level of automation and intelligence to digital workflows. At the core of these agents are systems that not only understand tasks but also adapt to dynamic online environments, recognize visual elements, interpret language, and extract meaningful data. #### Large Language Models (LLM) LLMs play a central role in AI web agents. They understand the task at hand, process the language, and generate the necessary steps to complete the objective. Whether it's interacting with a website or gathering information, the LLM drives the decision-making process. #### Natural Language Processing (NLP) NLP allows AI agents to interpret and understand human language. It helps the agent communicate with websites, forms, and other digital environments, enabling tasks like reading text, answering questions, or extracting key information. #### Computer Vision [Computer vision](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_vision) enables AI agents to "see" and interact with visual elements on a webpage. By scanning for images, buttons, or other interactive items, AI agents can make informed decisions about how to engage with the environment. #### Understanding Context Context is crucial for accurate decision-making. AI agents use context to adapt their behavior based on real-time data, past experiences, or user input. This ensures tasks are completed intelligently, even when conditions change. #### Entity Recognition and Extraction [Entity recognition](https://www.ibm.com/think/topics/named-entity-recognition) helps AI agents identify important pieces of information, like product names, dates, or locations, within text or data. This capability allows agents to make smarter decisions based on extracted entities. ### Standard Pipeline for Web AI Agents 1. **Understanding the Task**: The LLM interprets the task and identifies the objective. 2. **Website Interaction**: The agent accesses the target website and uses computer vision to scan the content. 3. **Action Generation**: The agent generates action plans, such as Selenium or Playwright code, to interact with the website. 4. **Execution**: The generated code is executed to perform the required actions. 5. **Repeat**: The agent repeats the process until the task is completed. ![Recursive approach AI Web Agents](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/large-action-models/webai-task-execution-flow_llqfc1.webp) Recursive approach AI Web Agents ## Leading AI Web Agents As we dive into AI-driven web agents - many of them open-source, are paving the way for developers to build powerful, customized [AI solutions](https://www.cloudraft.io/ai-solutions).

The process is broken down into a few simple steps: - **Install the Required Libraries:** To get started, you'll first need to install Lavague and its dependencies: ```bash pip install lavague llama_index bash ``` - **Set Up the WebAI Agent:** The agent uses the Selenium web driver to interact with the Yahoo Finance website. Here's the Python code that sets up the agent and directs it to the Yahoo Finance homepage: ```python from lavague.drivers.selenium import SeleniumDriver from lavague.core import ActionEngine, WorldModel from lavague.core.agents import WebAgent from lavague.core.navigation import NavigationEngine from lavague.core.retrievers import OpsmSplitRetriever from lavague.contexts.openai import OpenaiContext from llama_index.llms.groq import Groq import os os.environ['OPENAI_API_KEY'] = "" selenium_driver = SeleniumDriver() action_engine = ActionEngine(selenium_driver) world_model = WorldModel() agent = WebAgent(world_model, action_engine) agent.get("https://finance.yahoo.com/") instruction = """ Objective: Go to the World Indices Page 1. Click on "Markets" 2. Click on the "World Indices" link in the "Markets" dropdown menu """ agent.run(objective=instruction, display = True) python ``` When the agent successfully completes the task, it automatically takes a screenshot of the current web page. Lavague stores these screenshots, which can later be used in a Visual Language Model (VLM) to extract important information and create a workflow for further interactions. ## Integrating AI Web Agents into Workflows Integrating AI web agents into workflows has become a transformative approach for businesses looking to enhance efficiency, automate repetitive tasks, and improve overall productivity. Here's how organizations can practically implement AI agents into their operational frameworks 1. **Define Use Cases**: Identify specific tasks or processes that can benefit from automation. Common use cases include customer service, order management, HR processes, and project management. For example, AI agents can automate customer inquiries, manage recruitment workflows, or optimize project task allocations. 2. **Select the Right Platform**: Choose an AI platform that supports the creation and management of AI agents. Platforms like Automation Anywhere's AI Agent Studio allow businesses to build custom agents tailored to their unique needs. These platforms often provide tools for integrating generative AI into existing workflows seamlessly. 3. **Design Agentic Workflows**: Implement agentic workflows that enable AI agents to operate independently while pursuing specific goals. Unlike traditional systems that react to commands, these workflows allow agents to analyze their environment and make proactive decisions based on real-time data. ## Conclusion These tools are not just simplifying automation—they are evolving it, bringing unprecedented adaptability, intelligence, and efficiency to workflows across industries.

The global AI market is expected to be valued at approximately $621.19 billion in 2024, with projections indicating it could reach around $1.89 trillion by 2030, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.4% during this period. Imagine running an AI-powered SaaS product where your users consume millions of API calls and tokens daily. You’re paying for GPU usage and API requests, but your billing system isn’t keeping up. Revenue leakage and unpredictable costs become a nightmare. Therefore, the right strategies, tools, and implementations are essential. Creating a metering and billing solution in-house can be challenging due to factors such as internal expertise, time-to-market constraints, and the fact that available products are not simply plug-and-play solutions. You must integrate effectively with your business context and tailor your metering strategy accordingly. Various solutions exist to tackle this problem, ranging from custom-built metering systems to open-source and commercial billing platforms. These tools help businesses measure, track, and charge for AI services dynamically, ensuring that costs are aligned with actual usage. By the end of this article, you'll know how to implement a scalable, real-time usage-based billing system for [AI workloads](https://www.cloudraft.io/ai-solutions), ensuring no revenue leakage and accurate cost tracking. ## What is usage-based billing? Usage-based billing (also known as metered billing or consumption-based pricing) is a pricing model where customers are charged based on their actual consumption of a product or service. Unlike traditional subscription-based models, where users pay a fixed fee regardless of usage, usage-based billing ensures that customers pay for what they use—whether it's API requests, data processing, storage, compute time, or AI tokens consumed. This approach is particularly useful for cloud services, SaaS platforms, AI applications, and infrastructure providers, where demand fluctuates, and a one-size-fits-all pricing model doesn’t work. ## Why is usage-based billing Important? - **Fair and Transparent Pricing** : Your customers only pay for what they use, eliminating disputes over unfair pricing. This fosters trust and improves retention. - **Scalability** : Businesses can attract a wider range of users, from startups to enterprises, by offering flexible pricing. - **Revenue Optimization** : Providers can capture more revenue from heavy users while still accommodating smaller customers. - **Encourages Adoption** : Freemium and pay-as-you-go (PAYG) models lower the barrier to entry, allowing users to try services before committing to larger usage. - **Aligns with Modern Technologies** : Cloud computing, AI, and APIs generate dynamic workloads that require metered billing for cost efficiency. ## Top players in usage-based billing A variety of platforms specialize in metering, tracking, and billing for usage-based services. Here are some of the key players (not listed in any specific order): - **Metronome** : A robust metering and billing platform designed for SaaS and API-driven businesses. It provides detailed analytics and revenue tracking. - **OpenMeter** : An open-source metering system that enables real-time tracking of resource consumption. Ideal for companies that want full control over their billing infrastructure. - **Zenskar** : Focuses on automated billing workflows with advanced pricing models and integrations for SaaS businesses. - **MeterStack** : Provides a streamlined way to implement usage-based billing for cloud services and AI applications. - **Amberflo** : A comprehensive metering and billing platform that helps businesses implement pay-as-you-go pricing with real-time analytics. - **Lago** : An open-source alternative to proprietary billing systems, designed to give companies flexibility in tracking and billing for API consumption, AI workloads, and SaaS. - **Togai** : A powerful metering and pricing platform with deep customization options, making it ideal for complex billing scenarios. - **Chargebee** : A well-known subscription management and billing platform that also supports usage-based pricing. - **Zuora** : A leader in subscription billing, Zuora also provides usage-based monetization capabilities for enterprises. - **Orb** : Specializes in usage-based pricing models with advanced metering, analytics, and invoicing capabilities. - **M3ter** : A platform focused on metering and pricing flexibility for B2B SaaS, helping businesses scale their pricing based on usage. - **Stripe** : a very popular platform for invoicing and billing introduced usage-based billing some time ago. ## Challenges in Usage-Based Billing ### Granular Usage Tracking - While metering tokens is straightforward, accurately tracking compute usage, bandwidth, and other system-level metrics presents a more complex challenge. ### Real-Time Monitoring - Real-time processing of usage data is essential for billing systems to prevent overcharging or undercharging. Timely calculations enhance customer experience and facilitate valuable feedback. ### Custom Pricing Models - AI applications require pay-as-you-go, tiered pricing, and overage billing models instead of fixed subscriptions. ### Scalability - High-volume AI workloads demand an event-driven architecture to track and process billing data efficiently. ## Demo of usage-based billing for AI product ![Architecture Diagram](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/metering/architecture-metering-lago_nunnv3.webp) Architecture diagram For our demo, we’ll be using Lago, an open-source metering and billing system, to showcase how usage-based billing can be implemented effectively. However, the concepts covered here can be applied to various billing platforms, allowing you to choose the best approach based on your specific needs. During this demonstration, we charge according to tokens spent, but a user can also be billed by the API call, bandwidth used, time taken to process, or even on a subscription basis. This system’s versatility allows for many different metering methods based on the business requirement. The architecture is composed of a few central building blocks that work in tandem to audit and manage consumption. The users access the Ollama (Llama 3 for this demo) Platform, which performs their queries. There is also a feature called API that tracks how many tokens each person spends and exposes APIs to get token activity and report queries. An Event Listener Service listens for token-related activities and chronicles them. These are then sent to NATS, a message broker that lets applications communicate with each other through shared channels in real time. Metering Service listens for these events, consumes the information, and sends tokenized data to Lago, which is in charge of billing and charging users. This configuration provides users with efficient tracking of resource spending and allows billing to be more flexible beyond tokens, to also include API calls, bandwidth, and even time spent processing in a single system. ### Define Token Usage as a Metered Metric ![Define token usage as metric](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/metering/token-usage-metric_wwag4i.webp) Define token usage as metric We will create a metered metric in Lago’s UI specifically for tracking token consumption as users interact with the AI model. ### Configure Pricing Plans ![configure pricing plan](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/metering/lago-plan-settings_r1zbxg.webp) Configure pricing plan We will define different pricing strategies based on token usage, such as pay-as-you-go models (e.g., $0.01 per 1,000 tokens) or tiered pricing to offer discounts for higher usage. ### Associate Customers with Billing Plans ![Manage customers in Lago](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/metering/lago-manage-customer_kb9dh9.webp) Manage Customers - Customers will be onboarded into Lago and associated with the appropriate billing plans. - Lago will track real-time token consumption and assign it to the correct customer. - Based on the usage data, invoices will be automatically generated to reflect the actual token consumption ### Background: how this sample app works Regarding technical implementation, the API is built in Python using LangChain to enhance token calculation accuracy. The Event Listener Service and Metering Service are developed in Golang for efficient event handling and processing. The system uses NATS as a message broker to facilitate real-time communication between services. The Metering Service processes token usage data and sends it to Lago for billing. This architecture ensures accurate tracking, scalable event processing, and flexible billing options beyond tokens, such as API calls or bandwidth usage. #### API - Send the token at `:8080/token` ```py class TokenTrackingHandler(BaseCallbackHandler): def __init__(self): self.tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("hf-internal-testing/llama-tokenizer") self.query_history = [] # Store token usage history def on_llm_start(self, serialized, prompts, **kwargs): self.input_tokens = sum(len(self.tokenizer.encode(p)) for p in prompts) self.current_query = {"query": prompts[0], "input_tokens": self.input_tokens, "output_tokens": 0} def on_llm_end(self, response, **kwargs): if response.generations: self.output_tokens = sum(len(self.tokenizer.encode(g[0].text)) for g in response.generations) self.current_query.update({"output_tokens": self.output_tokens, "total_tokens": self.input_tokens + self.output_tokens}) self.query_history.append(self.current_query) # Send token usage to Go service requests.post("http://localhost:8080/token", json={"total_tokens": self.input_tokens + self.output_tokens}) py ``` #### Real-Time Event Processing with Go and NATS - A Go service continuously polls the token tracker and publishes token usage events to NATS (a high-performance messaging system). - **NATS ensures:** - **Reliability:** Guarantees token events are processed. - **Scalability:** Handles large volumes of AI requests. - **Auditability:** Enables historical tracking of token consumption. ```go // publishTokenToNATS sends the token count to NATS func publishTokenToNATS(totalTokens string) { // Generate a unique transaction ID transactionID := generateUniqueTransactionID() // Create event data event := map[string]interface{}{ "transaction_id": transactionID, "external_subscription_id": "", "code": "", "timestamp": fmt.Sprintf("%d", time.Now().Unix()), "properties": map[string]interface{}{ "tokens": totalTokens, }, } // Convert event to JSON eventJSON, err := json.Marshal(event) if err != nil { fmt.Println("Failed to marshal event:", err) return } // Publish event to NATS err = nc.Publish("events.lago", eventJSON) if err != nil { fmt.Println("Failed to publish event:", err) return } fmt.Println("Published event:", string(eventJSON)) } go ``` #### Metering and Lago Integration - A subscriber service listens to NATS for token usage events. - It forwards the data to Lago for real-time billing calculation. - Lago applies pricing rules and updates the customer’s invoice accordingly. ```go // handleEventMessage processes the event message and sends it to Lago func handleEventMessage(data []byte) { // Parse the event from the NATS message var event map[string]interface{} if err := json.Unmarshal(data, &event); err != nil { fmt.Printf("Failed to parse event: %v\n", err) return } // Extract necessary fields from the event transactionID := event["transaction_id"].(string) externalSubscriptionID := event["external_subscription_id"].(string) code := event["code"].(string) timestamp := event["timestamp"].(string) properties := event["properties"].(map[string]interface{}) // Convert properties to the correct format (e.g., gb as string) tokens := fmt.Sprintf("%v", properties["tokens"]) // Create Lago event input eventInput := &lago.EventInput{ TransactionID: transactionID, ExternalSubscriptionID: externalSubscriptionID, Code: code, Timestamp: timestamp, Properties: map[string]interface{}{ "tokens": tokens, }, } // Send the event to Lago sendEventToLago(eventInput) } go ``` #### Automated Customer Billing - Lago maps token usage to customer profiles and applies relevant pricing plans. - Invoices are generated dynamically, reflecting real-time consumption. - Customers can access Lago’s UI or API to monitor their usage and billing. ## Why This Architecture is Scalable: - **Service Independence** \- Each service (API, Event Listener, Metering) runs independently without direct coupling, allowing horizontal scaling by adding more instances of any service when needed. - **Message Queue Architecture** \- NATS handles high volumes of events between services, acting as a buffer during traffic spikes and ensuring no data loss during peak loads. - **Distributed Processing** \- Multiple instances of services can process requests in parallel across different machines, effectively distributing the workload and preventing single point bottlenecks. ## Use cases for usage-based billing - SaaS AI Platforms: Charge users based on token usage, API calls, or processing time. - Multi-Tenant Enterprise Applications: Track usage across teams or projects, enabling fair cost allocation. - AI-Powered APIs: Monetize API requests with transparent metering, considering factors like response size or execution time. - Hybrid Pricing Models: Combine subscriptions with pay-as-you-go billing, including bandwidth, storage, or compute usage. - [Cloud Services](https://www.cloudraft.io/cloud-services) & Infrastructure: Bill based on actual resource consumption, such as storage, network traffic, or CPU cycles. ## Next steps Everyone likes free beer but as a for-profit business, you should be aiming for zero leakage in revenues as much as possible and also provide transparent pricing, chargeback, and great user experience to your customers. Your AI workloads are scaling your billing should too. Don’t let revenue slip through the cracks.

One of the most significant developments in this domain has been the emergence of large language models (LLMs), which have demonstrated impressive capabilities in natural language processing tasks such as text generation, summarization, and question-answering. As LLMs and other AI models continue to grow in size and complexity, the demand for powerful hardware accelerators, such as B200, NVIDIA's H100, and GH200 GPUs, as well as solutions from companies like Cerebras (WSE-3) and Groq, has skyrocketed. This growth in AI capabilities has been accompanied by a surge in investments from governments, venture capitalists, and individual investors, driven by the promise of better returns on investment (ROI) in this burgeoning field and taking humanity to the next level with [AGI](https://openai.com/blog/planning-for-agi-and-beyond). The democratization of AI, which aims to make these advanced technologies accessible to a broader range of users and organizations, has also gained significant traction. Recent news of substantial investments in AI and GPU cloud services underscores the growing recognition of the importance of these technologies. For example, the Indian government [announced](https://pib.gov.in/PressReleaseIframePage.aspx?PRID=2012357) the investment of 10,000 GPUs to build the sovereign AI cloud supercomputer. Similarly, investors like Nat & Friedman running their own AI clusters such as [Andromeda](https://andromeda.ai/) and [so on](https://gpulist.ai/). In this article, we will explore more about AI Cloud, why we need one in more detail, and how to build AI Cloud. ## What is AI Cloud? AI Cloud refers to a cloud computing infrastructure specifically designed and optimized for the deployment, management, and scaling of AI and machine learning workloads. It combines the power of cloud computing with specialized hardware accelerators, such as GPUs and other AI-focused chips, as well as software tools and frameworks tailored for AI applications. It is different from hyper scalers such as AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure in way that it is meant for one purpose which is to best serve AI workload. They are meant to be cost-effective, particularly for large distributed training jobs, and they intend to democratize AI by simplification. Following are the functionalities of the AI cloud that one should expect: - Ability to manage data that will be used for training purposes. It includes data collection, ingestion, analysis, and curation. - Model training and evaluation - Deployment of model (inferencing) - Hypertuning - Model monitoring - Security ## What is the need for a specialized AI Cloud? The benefits and use cases of AI Cloud highlight the increasing demand for such specialized cloud services. Here are some key advantages and applications: ### Benefits 1. **Sovereign AI Cloud**: AI Cloud can offer enhanced data sovereignty and control, allowing organizations to keep their data and AI operations within their secure cloud environment, adhering to local regulations and privacy requirements. 2. **Access to cutting-edge models**: While open-source AI models are valuable, the most advanced and powerful models are often closed-source and proprietary. AI Cloud providers can offer access to these state-of-the-art models, enabling organizations to leverage their capabilities without the need for extensive in-house development. 3. **Lack of operational skills**: Managing AI infrastructure can be complex and resource-intensive, requiring specialized skills in areas such as GPU optimization, model deployment, and scalability. AI Cloud services can abstract away much of this complexity, enabling organizations to focus on their core AI initiatives without the need for extensive in-house operational expertise. 4. **Reducing costs and improving security**: By leveraging the economies of scale and shared resources of cloud providers, organizations can significantly reduce their AI infrastructure costs while benefiting from enhanced security measures and best practices implemented by cloud providers. 5. **AI + Cloud Native**: AI Cloud services are often designed with cloud-native principles in mind, enabling seamless integration with other cloud services and facilitating the development of scalable, resilient, and distributed AI applications. You can read more about how cloud native technologies accelerate AI [here](https://www.cloudraft.io/blog/intersection-of-cloud-native-and-ai). 6. **Democratization of AI**: By lowering the barriers to entry and providing accessible AI resources, AI Cloud services contribute to the democratization of AI, enabling smaller organizations and individuals to leverage these powerful technologies. 7. **Supply chain issues and GPU availability**: With the increasing demand for GPUs and other specialized hardware, AI Cloud services can help organizations overcome supply chain challenges by innovative GPU scheduling and resource-sharing techniques and ensure access to the necessary compute resources. ### Use Cases 1. **GPU Cloud for Datacenters**: AI Cloud services can help datacenters build and provide innovative solutions for their customers so that can maximize their hardware investment and also provide value to the end customers. Various traditional data centers have a plethora of computing but the software part has been lagging. Bringing cloud native technologies to build a stack that can compete with larger cloud players is possible by providing similar or certain categories, a much better user experience, and pricing. 2. **Large enterprises building internal AI Cloud Platforms**: Many large enterprises are developing their own internal AI Cloud Platforms to address specific use cases and requirements such as security, compliances, and IP protection. Another factor to consider here is the cost, with AI, the cloud cost can skyrocket. By utilizing cloud native and open source stack, combined with platform engineering, enterprises can give the best experience to developers and internal stakeholders. 3. **Air-gapped environments**: Organizations operating in highly secure or air-gapped environments can benefit from sovereign AI Cloud services by deploying private, on-premises AI clouds, ensuring data and model security while still leveraging the benefits of cloud-based AI infrastructure. This can be strengthened by implementing advanced techniques like _confidential computing_ which is supported by [NVIDIA hopper architecture](https://www.nvidia.com/en-in/data-center/solutions/confidential-computing/). 4. **Virtual machines (VMs) with GPU access for data scientists and ML engineers**: very simple use case but need of the hour for every business. Their engineers need access to larger machines and powerful GPUs. Not many companies want to do this by putting a budget in CAPEX but rather utilize AI Cloud service that offers GPU-accelerated VMs tailored for data scientists and machine learning engineers, providing them with the necessary compute resources for model development, training, and experimentation. 5. **AI Platforms**: By abstracting away the complexities of model deployment and management, AI Cloud services can enable organizations to deploy large language models (LLMs) and other AI models with a simple one-click process, streamlining the deployment workflow and reducing operational overhead. ## How to build AI Cloud As we explore the concept of building an AI Cloud, it is important to revisit the synergies between AI and cloud-native technologies. Cloud-native principles, such as containerization, microservices, and automated scaling, are highly relevant to AI workloads, enabling efficient deployment, management, and scalability of AI models and pipelines. We would like to share our experience based on the extensive research and hands-on experience building one. ### Infrastructure Layer The hardware and infrastructure layer is the most critical part of AI due to its high compute and bandwidth demand, reliance, and reliability requirements. The processing power of CPU and GPUs, network bandwidth, storage performance, and how power efficient the whole system is, play an important role in the success of AI cloud. For example, as a business, you don’t want to screw up a distributed training job that is running on hundreds of expensive GPUs at the last moment or not fully utilizing its potential, it could lead to a massive waste of compute resources involved here. **Compute & Network**: One can build the stack using bare metal servers or virtual machines (VMs) in on-prem or the cloud. Bare metal is more performance though. The compute nodes are connected with high-performance networks such as RDMA and InfiniBand for efficient data transfer and high-speed communication. **GPUs**: It is the heart of the AI and the major differentiator. Essentially, a pool of a variety of GPUs are required depending on the performance and their capabilities. Furthermore, additional GPU scheduling and optimization strategies through the use of orchestration layers and drivers are required. Please note that some of the features may require additional licenses from the vendor such as enabling fractional GPUs. **Storage**: High-speed storage solutions for handling large datasets and model artifacts. Both types of storage are essential – block storage and object storage backed by technologies such as Ceph and Minio. ### Orchestration Layer [Kubernetes](https://www.cloudraft.io/kubernetes-consulting) is the de facto standard for orchestration purposes. The ecosystem is broad and extensible, it is the most flexible option we suggest. In some cases, Slurm is preferred in HPC, which is a fault-tolerant and scalable cluster management and job scheduling system. **Control Plane:** - Custom control plane for managing and orchestrating cloud workloads and requests. - Responsible for resource allocation, scheduling, and automation. ### Building Blocks There are various building blocks that forms the overall cloud.

We all know observability is essential. When you’re running any kind of modern application or infrastructure, having good visibility through logs, metrics, and traces is not just helpful, it’s how you keep systems stable, catch issues early, and move with confidence. But while we’ve gotten better at collecting and analyzing the data, we haven’t always paid enough attention to what that data contains or where it ends up. These logs and data can easily include sensitive information. Things like user details, access tokens, or internal system behavior often get logged without much thought. And if that data is exposed or mishandled, it turns into a serious risk both legally and operationally. In this blog post, I’ll walk you through how to build observability pipelines that are not only functional but also secure, compliant, and built with intention. We’ll look at how OpenTelemetry can help with that, and why its processors are one of the most effective ways to protect and control the flow of telemetry data. ![](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/opentelemetry/Meme_kbxyzc.webp) ## What It Costs When Compliance Fails We often think of compliance as just legal formalities or contracts. But when compliance fails, the consequences are real and can impact a business way more. Even a small oversight, like an email address showing up in a debug log or a trace, containing sensitive user data being sent to an external service without proper filtering, can become a much larger issue. These incidents do not just violate policies, they also break customer's trust, trigger audits, and can lead to financial and legal damage. According to the [IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report](https://www.ibm.com/reports/data-breach), the global average cost of a breach in 2024 was over 4.9 million dollars. In regulated industries such as healthcare, finance, and insurance, that number tends to be even higher. And the cost isn’t just about regulatory fines. A significant portion comes from the loss of business, system downtime, incident response, and long-term brand reputation issues. Even if your organization is not governed by strict regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, or PCI-DSS, your users still expect their data to be treated with care. Once trust is lost, it’s incredibly difficult to win back. That is why compliance can’t be treated as something you can add later. It has to be built into the foundation, and that includes how we handle observability data. When telemetry pipelines are left unguarded, they can quietly become one of the biggest liabilities in your stack. ## OpenTelemetry and Its Role in Data Protection OpenTelemetry has quickly become the standard framework for collecting telemetry data across modern, distributed systems. It provides a consolidated approach to gathering logs, metrics, and traces and offers the flexibility to send that data to a variety of destinations, from observability platforms to self-hosted backends or data lakes. While OpenTelemetry is excellent at solving how data is collected and transported, it places the responsibility for what data is captured and how securely it is handled entirely on the user. Its flexibility is a strength, but also a risk. OpenTelemetry will not automatically prevent sensitive data from flowing through your pipelines. ### **What Kind of Telemetry Data Needs Protection?** Before going into the protection strategies, let’s first identify the types of data that could pose compliance risks. Common examples include: - **Personally Identifiable Information (PII):** emails, phone numbers, user IDs - **Sensitive system metadata:** IP addresses, internal hostnames - **Confidential business context:** debug logs, internal environment tags - **Regulatory-bound attributes:** region identifiers (e.g., for GDPR) If this data makes its way into your telemetry stream, it will continue through your system unless you explicitly configure rules to stop or modify it. This is where the [OpenTelemetry Collector](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/collector/) becomes critical. Acting as the central hub between data sources and their destinations, the Collector offers a place where telemetry data can be inspected, filtered, transformed, or enriched before it moves any further. It is here that organizations gain control over what data stays, what data is modified, and what data never leaves the boundary at all. With the right configurations, the Collector becomes more than just a routing tool. It becomes a guardrail for enforcing data protection standards, filtering out sensitive information, and helping ensure compliance with security and privacy requirements. OpenTelemetry, when used thoughtfully, is not just an observability solution. It is a foundational piece of your data protection strategy. ![](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/opentelemetry/Otel_Collector_bhum3d.webp) Opentelemetry Collector ## Solving Real Compliance Challenges with OpenTelemetry Processors Processors are one of the most important functions within the OpenTelemetry Collector when it comes to enforcing data protection and compliance. Positioned between data collection and export, they serve as the transformation and control layer where critical compliance logic can be applied before telemetry leaves your environment. Learn how to design observability pipelines that enforce data protection, support compliance regulations, and ensure secure telemetry using OpenTelemetryThe strength of processors lies in their flexibility. They allow you to redact, suppress, enrich, or reshape telemetry based on your organization's security and privacy requirements. This feature is essential when dealing with sensitive or regulated data flowing through your observability systems. Here are some of the practical ways processors help us address real-world compliance concerns: **Redacting Sensitive Information** Logs and traces often contain personal or confidential data such as email addresses, user IDs, or access tokens. Processors like attributesprocessor or transformprocessor can be configured to remove or make these values anonymous automatically, helping prevent unintentional exposure. **Filtering Non-Compliant Data** Telemetry that includes content that violates policies can be filtered out entirely before reaching any downstream systems. This helps reduce risk and ensures that observability does not become a liability. **Enforcing Data Residency and Routing Rules** For organizations subject to regional data protection laws, processors can route or drop telemetry based on attributes such as geography or service type. This ensures that data remains within defined boundaries and complies with jurisdictional requirements. **Normalizing and Structuring Telemetry for Audits** Compliance often requires structured, consistent data. Processors can standardize field names, values, and formats so that logs, metrics, and traces align with internal audit and reporting standards. **Reducing Noise to Highlight What Matters** Not all telemetry is useful, and excessive data can obscure important signals. Processors help reduce noise by removing redundant spans or unnecessary attributes, making it easier to focus on meaningful insights while keeping compliance in check. By configuring processors with intent to be compliant, organizations can ensure that observability pipelines are secure, responsible, and aligned with compliance goals. This control layer not only supports regulatory requirements but also promotes better data and operational clarity. When designed properly, processors become more than just a technical feature, they can represent a proactive step toward secure and compliant observability. ## Practical Examples of Compliance-first Telemetry Pipelines After exploring the role of processors in enforcing compliance, let’s look at how to bring it all together in real-world telemetry pipelines. Building compliance-first observability is not just about theory; it is about designing workflows that consistently protect data across environments. ### **List of Processors in OpenTelemetry Collector** The [OpenTelemetry Collector provides several processors](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/tree/main/processor) out of the box. The most commonly used ones for compliance are: - **attributesprocessor** – Add, remove, update, or redact specific attributes - **filterprocessor** – Filter spans or logs based on matching criteria - **routingprocessor** – Route telemetry conditionally based on resource or attribute values - **transformprocessor** – Use expressions to rename, update, or drop fields **How to Choose the Right Processor** We can use the specific processors for doing the job based on various use cases, like: | Use Case | Processor | | --- | --- | | **Remove or redact sensitive fields** | attributesprocessor | | **Drop unnecessary or risky logs/spans** | filterprocessor | | **Route telemetry based on geography or team** | routingprocessor | | **Normalize field names for audit compliance** | transformprocessor | **Example 1: Redacting PII in application traces** In many applications, traces can unintentionally carry personally identifiable information like user email addresses or phone numbers. To address this, you can build a pipeline that begins with the **otlp** receiver, processes the trace data through an **attributesprocessor** configured to detect and redact sensitive fields such as **user.email** or **user.phone**, and finally exports it to a tracing backend like Jaeger or another OTLP-compatible service. **Example Config:** ```yaml receivers: otlp: protocols: grpc: http: processors: attributes/pii_redaction: actions: - key: user.email action: delete - key: user.phone action: delete exporters: jaeger: endpoint: 'http://jaeger-collector:14250' tls: insecure: true service: pipelines: traces: receivers: [otlp] processors: [attributes/pii_redaction] exporters: [jaeger] yaml ``` **Outcome:** This pipeline deletes any attribute named `user.email` or `user.phone` before data is exported to Jaeger, ensuring no PII leaves the pipeline. With this setup, you preserve the diagnostic value of the trace without risking exposure of personal data. This approach helps maintain user privacy and stay aligned with data protection policies. **Example 2: Filtering internal debug logs in production** Developers often include verbose debug logs during development, but these logs are rarely suitable for production. In a compliance-first pipeline, you can start with a **filelog** or **fluentforward** receiver and pass the logs through a **filterprocessor** that drops entries where severity is set to **"DEBUG"** or the environment tag indicates it's development-only. The cleaned logs are then sent to a system like Google Cloud Logging or Datadog. **Example Config:** ```yaml receivers: filelog: include: ['/var/log/app/*.log'] processors: filter/drop_debug_logs: logs: log_record: - severity_text: 'DEBUG' exporters: googlecloud: project: my-production-project service: pipelines: logs: receivers: [filelog] processors: [filter/drop_debug_logs] exporters: [googlecloud] yaml ``` **Outcome:** This ensures that only production-relevant and compliant log data is exported, reducing both operational risk and unnecessary storage or processing costs. **Example 3: Ensuring data residency compliance** Let’s say your organization collects telemetry from EU-based services and must comply with regional data residency laws. The pipeline begins with the **otlp** receiver and uses a **routingprocessor** to inspect attributes like **region = eu-west1**. Based on this, telemetry is selectively routed to an EU-based backend only. **Example Config:** ```yaml receivers: otlp: protocols: grpc: http: processors: routing/data_residency: table: - value: eu-west1 exporters: [eu_backend] statement: match(resource.attributes["region"], "eu-west1") - value: default exporters: [non_eu_backend] exporters: eu_backend: endpoint: 'eu-collector.mycompany.com' non_eu_backend: endpoint: 'us-collector.mycompany.com' service: pipelines: traces: receivers: [otlp] processors: [routing/data_residency] exporters: [] yaml ``` **Outcome:** EU data is routed exclusively to EU-compliant systems, supporting regional legal obligations. This architecture ensures that regulated data never leaves its permitted geographic boundary, keeping your observability setup aligned with legal and contractual obligations. **Example 4: Standardizing attributes for compliance audits** In regulated industries, audit requirements often demand consistent telemetry formats. A compliance-aligned pipeline might start with receivers like **prometheus**, **otlp**, or **filelog**, and pass the data through a **transformprocessor** that renames fields. For instance, **user\_id** becomes **user.id**, and **txn\_amount** becomes **transaction.amount**. The processed data is then exported to a SIEM system or centralized log storage for long-term analysis. This kind of field normalization supports auditability and ensures that all downstream systems operate with uniform telemetry schemas, improving clarity and compliance readiness. **Example Config:** ```yaml receivers: otlp: protocols: grpc: http: processors: transform/standardize_fields: trace_statements: - context: span statements: - rename(attributes["user_id"], "user.id") - rename(attributes["txn_amount"], "transaction.amount") exporters: logging: loglevel: debug service: pipelines: traces: receivers: [otlp] processors: [transform/standardize_fields] exporters: [logging] yaml ``` **Outcome:** With consistent attribute names, you improve audit readiness and make logs easier to correlate. These examples show how easy it is to tailor your observability pipeline for compliance without sacrificing performance or visibility. By using the Collector as a policy engine, you ensure that compliance checks are built into your telemetry flow. ## Designing a Secure and Compliant Observability Architecture By now, it’s clear that securing telemetry data is not just about selecting the right tools. It involves designing the entire observability architecture with compliance in mind from the very beginning. To do this effectively, observability should be treated as a data supply chain. Each stage, starting from ingestion to processing to export, must actively enforce protections, not just transfer data passively. **Centralize Control** The OpenTelemetry Collector sits at the center of a secure observability setup. It serves as the control point for managing ingestion, sanitation, transformation, routing, and export. This enables consistent enforcement of policies, regardless of where the data originates. If you need to redact PII before logs leave a Kubernetes cluster, route metrics from the EU to region-specific storage, or standardize trace data for audit readiness, the Collector is where those rules are applied. As observability grows, managing multiple Collector instances across environments can become complex. To help us manage this situation we can implement the [Open Agent Management Protocol (OpAMP)](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/opamp/). OpAMP provides a standardized way to remotely manage OpenTelemetry Collectors at scale. It enables you to push configuration updates, monitor agent health, and enforce policy changes without logging into each node manually. It’s an essential addition for teams aiming to maintain observability governance while reducing operational overhead. **Keep Processing and Export Logic Outside Application Code** A frequent mistake is embedding telemetry logic directly within application code. This introduces risk, increases complexity, and makes enforcement inconsistent across services. A more secure approach moves that logic into centrally managed Collector configurations. This allows teams to update rules without deploying new code and gives compliance teams the ability to audit pipelines independently. **Encrypt Telemetry in Transit and at Rest** All telemetry data, including logs, metrics, and traces, should be encrypted while in transit and when stored. Use TLS to secure communication between agents and Collectors, and ensure encryption at rest is enabled in your observability backends such as OpenSearch, Datadog, or GCP. **Avoid Overcollection and Excessive Retention** Collecting or retaining more data than necessary increases your risk exposure. Implement filtering at the source and within the Collector to discard irrelevant data. Align retention policies with legal and compliance requirements to ensure that sensitive data is not kept longer than necessary. **Enforce Separation of Duties** Not every team member needs access to all telemetry. Design the system to enforce access controls, both through infrastructure-level mechanisms like IAM or RBAC and within observability platforms using scoped dashboards or tenant-aware indexing. This limits access, reduces internal risk, and simplifies compliance audits. ## Additional Layers of Data Protection Beyond Processors While OpenTelemetry processors play a critical role in securing and shaping telemetry data, they should be part of a broader data protection strategy. Ensuring compliance requires a layered approach that includes infrastructure-level security, backend configurations, and organizational access controls. Below are key layers that complement the processor-level protections: ### **1\. End-to-End Encryption** Encryption must be enforced at every stage of telemetry flow. Use TLS for all communication between agents, collectors, and backend systems. Whether data is being transmitted over gRPC or HTTP, encrypted channels prevent interception and unauthorized access during transit. ### **2\. Secure and Compliant Backends** After data is processed, it is stored or analyzed in backends such as OpenSearch, Google Cloud Logging, or Datadog. These systems must be configured to encrypt data at rest and enforce strict access controls. Ensure that backend permissions align with your organization's compliance policies. ### **3\. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and Principle of Least Privilege** Limit access to telemetry data and configuration files using IAM or RBAC mechanisms. Each user or team should have access only to the data necessary for their responsibilities. This reduces the risk of accidental exposure and simplifies audit processes. ### **4\. Protected Configuration Management** Treat OpenTelemetry configuration files as sensitive assets. Store them in secure, version-controlled repositories with restricted access. Use secrets management tools like HashiCorp Vault or GCP Secret Manager to inject credentials and tokens securely, instead of embedding them in plaintext within configuration files. ### **5\. Routine Compliance Reviews and Audits** Security and compliance are ongoing responsibilities. Schedule periodic reviews of telemetry pipelines, access controls, and retention policies. Auditing configurations and data flows regularly helps identify outdated settings, over-permissive access, or unintentional data leakage. ### **6\. Data Minimization Principles** Collect only what is necessary. Overcollection not only adds noise but also increases the surface area for compliance risk. Apply filters early in the pipeline, remove legacy or redundant telemetry sources, and periodically reassess what is being collected across environments. ## Build Trust Into Your Observability Stack Observability has come a long way, and today, building trust into it begins with intentional design. From deciding what to collect to how data is handled, OpenTelemetry offers the flexibility and control needed to embed security and compliance into every stage of the pipeline. By shaping telemetry as it flows, you enable teams to maintain visibility while reducing risk. I hope this article provides you with practical guidance to create observability pipelines that are not just effective, but also secure and compliant by design. Looking for Observability Experts?

DevSecOps integrates security practices within the DevOps process, ensuring security is built into applications from the start rather than added later. This approach is critical for identifying vulnerabilities early, reducing remediation costs, and maintaining continuous delivery while ensuring security compliance. ### How does Kubernetes security differ from traditional security? Kubernetes security requires specialized knowledge of container isolation, cluster network policies, and cloud-native threat vectors. Unlike traditional security models, Kubernetes environments have dynamic workloads, ephemeral containers, and service mesh complexities that demand purpose-built security controls and monitoring solutions. ### What are the benefits of implementing Zero Trust in cloud-native environments? Zero Trust architecture in cloud-native environments provides granular access controls, minimizes the attack surface, and prevents lateral movement of threats. By validating every access request regardless of source, Zero Trust significantly reduces the risk of data breaches and ensures secure container-to-container communication in Kubernetes clusters.

However, scaling LLMs in production introduces new monitoring and compliance complexities. Effective observability bridges the gap between research and real-world reliability, ensuring models remain performant, cost-efficient, and secure in dynamic environments. The world of AI operations is rapidly evolving beyond traditional monitoring approaches. As organizations deploy LLMs at scale, they face unique challenges: unpredictable inference costs, model drift detection, security compliance, and the need for real-time performance insights. This comprehensive guide explores the essential observability strategies and tools needed to successfully monitor LLMs in production. ## Why Does Observability Matter for LLMs? LLMs operate on massive datasets, require high-performance compute/storage, and serve unpredictable user loads. Traditional monitoring tools fall short—comprehensive observability is essential for: - **Preventing unexpected downtime and performance bottlenecks** - **Tracking model drift, accuracy, and prompt performance** - **Enforcing security, privacy, and compliance for sensitive data** - **Controlling costs and scaling efficiently** Unlike traditional applications, LLMs present unique observability challenges including token-based pricing models, variable inference times, and the need to monitor both technical metrics and model quality metrics. ## Key Observability Pillars ### Metrics Collection & Telemetry Capture request latency, throughput, prompt complexity, GPU/memory utilization, token counts, and user feedback. Use Prometheus and OpenTelemetry for collection, with Grafana for dashboards. ### Distributed Tracing LLMs typically run as microservices (often gRPC/REST APIs). Distributed traces pinpoint bottlenecks and enable root cause analysis. OpenTelemetry Auto Instrumentation streamlines tracing integration. ### Health Checks & Canary Deployments Use proactive, Kubernetes-native health checks (Canary Checker) to validate output quality for every new LLM build. Automate rollback and staged rollouts based on observability signals. ### Security & Compliance Monitoring LLM pipelines should support encryption, secure logging, and integrate policy-as-code tools (Kyverno). Runtime monitoring (with Tetragon, Cilium Hubble) addresses in-memory threats and zero trust. ### Usage, Drift, and Cost Tracking Monitor resource/hardware usage and track model drift with vector databases and open-source logging tools (Loki, ELK). Implement usage-based billing for accurate cost attribution. ## LLM Observability Tools & Platforms The ecosystem for LLM observability continues to grow, with several powerful commercial and open source solutions: | Tool | Type | Key Features | Pricing/Freemium | Pros | Cons | Self-host Option | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **LangSmith** | Paid | LLM tracing, cost analytics, feedback, works natively with Langchain | Free tier up to 5,000 traces/month; paid SaaS tiers available; self-hosting only in enterprise | Robust integration with Langchain, manual/auto evals, SaaS simplicity | No open source backend, self-host for enterprise only, vendor lock-in risk | Limited (Enterprise) | | **Lunary** | Free/Open Src | Model tracking, categorization (Radar), prompt analytics | Free up to 1,000 events/day; open source under Apache 2.0 | Completely open source, can self-host for privacy, easy integration | Event limit on free cloud, limited advanced analytics compared to commercial | Yes | | **Phoenix (Arize)** | Free/Open Src | Tracing, evaluation, hallucination detection | Free (ELv2 license), no full hosted SaaS; paid AX Pro starts at $50/m | Works out-of-box with LlamaIndex/LangChain/OpenAI, OTel compatible, built-in evals | Paid plan for hosted, may require infra management for self-host | Yes | | **Langfuse** | Free/Open Src | Session tracking, tracing, evaluation, OpenTelemetry backend | Free self-host up to 50k events/mo; $59/m for 100k events (managed), $199/mo Pro | Most complete OSS feature set, SOC2 compliant, wide integrations | Hosted plans have data limits, advanced features priced | Yes | | **Helicone** | Paid & OSS | LLM monitoring, prompt management, caching, cost tracker | Free up to 10,000 requests; $20/m Pro, $200/m Team | Caching reduces API costs, SDK and proxy integration, security features | Limited requests in free; higher tiers unlock retention/features | Yes | | **Grafana Cloud** | Paid/Open Src | Visualization, dashboards, multi-source metrics/logs/traces | Free up to 100GB data (3 active users); Pro $19/user/mo; Enterprise $8/user/mo | Flexible, massive plugin ecosystem, custom dashboards, active community | Usage tiers can get expensive, learning curve for advanced use | Yes | | **Traceloop OpenLLMetry** | Free/Open Src | OTel style tracing, multi-tool compatibility | Free, open source (Apache 2.0), backend also free | Universal OTel-compatible, integrates with Langchain, LlamaIndex | Infra setup required, less advanced analytics | Yes | Recent surveys highlight these platforms' support for token counting, semantic traceability, drift detection, and GPU observation. ## Hands-On Demo: Langfuse in Action To demonstrate LLM observability in practice, let's walk through a complete setup using Langfuse—one of the most comprehensive open-source solutions. This demo showcases real-world tracing, session management, and analytics for LLM applications. ### Setting Up Langfuse Cloud Langfuse offers both self-hosted and cloud options. For this demo, we'll use the cloud version for rapid setup: 1. **Create Account**: Visit [cloud.langfuse.com](https://cloud.langfuse.com/) and sign up for a free account 2. **Get API Keys**: Navigate to Settings → API Keys and copy your Public Key and Secret Key 3. **Configure Environment**: Set up your environment variables: ```bash LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY=pk-lf-your-key-here LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY=sk-lf-your-key-here LANGFUSE_HOST=https://cloud.langfuse.com OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-api-key-here bash ``` ### Demo Applications We've created three comprehensive demo scenarios that showcase different aspects of LLM observability: #### 1\. Simple Chat Interface A basic conversational AI that demonstrates fundamental tracing concepts: ```python from langfuse import Langfuse import openai langfuse = Langfuse( public_key="your-public-key", secret_key="your-secret-key", host="https://cloud.langfuse.com" ) def chat_with_llm(user_message: str, model: str = "gpt-3.5-turbo") -> str: # Start a span for this chat completion span = langfuse.start_span(name="chat_completion", input=user_message) try: # Start a generation observation generation = langfuse.start_observation( name="llm_call", model=model, input=user_message, as_type="generation" ) response = openai.chat.completions.create( model=model, messages=[\ {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful AI assistant."},\ {"role": "user", "content": user_message}\ ], temperature=0.7, max_tokens=500 ) result = response.choices[0].message.content generation.update(output=result) generation.end() span.update(output=result) span.end() return result except Exception as e: error_msg = f"Sorry, I encountered an error: {str(e)}" generation.update(output=error_msg, level="ERROR") generation.end() span.update(output=error_msg, level="ERROR") span.end() return error_msg python ``` #### 2\. RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) Pipeline A more complex workflow showing document retrieval, context assembly, and generation: ```python def rag_pipeline(query: str) -> Dict[str, any]: # Start main span for RAG pipeline trace = langfuse.start_span(name="rag_pipeline", input=query) try: # Step 1: Retrieve relevant documents documents = retrieve_relevant_documents(query, trace=trace) # Step 2: Assemble context context = assemble_context(documents, query, trace=trace) # Step 3: Generate answer answer = generate_answer(context, trace=trace) result = { "query": query, "retrieved_documents": documents, "context": context, "answer": answer } trace.update(name="rag_pipeline", output=result, metadata={"doc_count": len(documents)}) return result finally: trace.end() python ``` #### 3\. Multi-Step Workflow Demonstrates complex conversation chains and problem-solving workflows with nested spans and observations. ### Langfuse Dashboard Overview Once you run the demo applications, the Langfuse dashboard provides comprehensive insights into your LLM operations: ![Langfuse Latency Dashboard](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/v1761306007/blogs/llm-observability/505232688-29705943-1671-4793-8a51-7ecfff4aeb82_e3hg4r.webp)_Langfuse dashboard showing latency metrics and performance insights from our demo applications_ ### Trace Detail View Individual traces reveal the complete request flow with nested spans, timing breakdown, and token usage: ![Langfuse Trace Details](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/v1761306007/blogs/llm-observability/505232696-7be0c243-bf39-4576-a86f-6080adf03377_zwk0lx.webp)_Detailed trace view showing nested spans for RAG pipeline: document retrieval → context assembly → LLM generation_ ### Analytics and Cost Tracking Built-in analytics track token usage, costs, and performance over time: ![Langfuse Cost Dashboard](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/v1761306007/blogs/llm-observability/505232672-808b17dc-3add-4be1-aee1-11747afde9ce_lqeszt.webp)_Analytics dashboard displaying token usage, cost analysis, and performance metrics across different models_ ### Key Benefits Demonstrated This hands-on demo showcases several critical LLM observability capabilities: - **Distributed Tracing**: Complete visibility into multi-step LLM workflows - **Performance Monitoring**: Real-time latency, throughput, and error tracking - **Cost Management**: Token usage and cost attribution across different models - **Error Handling**: Comprehensive error tracking and debugging information ### Running the Demo To try this demo yourself: ```bash # Clone the demo repository git clone https://github.com/cloudraftio/langfuse-demo.git cd langfuse-demo # Install dependencies pip install -r requirements.txt # Configure environment cp env.example .env # Edit .env with your API keys # Run all demos python run_all_demos.py bash ``` The demo generates realistic traces across different scenarios, providing a comprehensive view of LLM observability in action. ## Implementation Guide: LLM Monitoring on Kubernetes Deploying and observing LLMs in Kubernetes requires integrating metrics collection, tracing, logging, alerting, security, and visualization. Below is a detailed how-to guide with working code snippets and configurations: ### 1\. Exporting LLM Metrics with Prometheus Expose inference request counts and latency metrics from your LLM service. Here's a minimal FastAPI example with Prometheus integration: ```python from fastapi import FastAPI, Request from prometheus_client import Counter, Histogram, make_asgi_app import time app = FastAPI() REQUEST_COUNT = Counter("llm_requests", "Number of LLM requests") REQUEST_LATENCY = Histogram("llm_request_latency_seconds", "Request latency in seconds") @app.post("/generate") async def generate(req: Request): start = time.time() data = await req.json() # Simulate call to LLM model response = {"output": "Example LLM output"} REQUEST_COUNT.inc() REQUEST_LATENCY.observe(time.time() - start) return response # Serve metrics at /metrics for Prometheus scraping app.mount("/metrics", make_asgi_app()) python ``` **Key takeaways:** - Metrics include request count and request latency - Prometheus scrapes /metrics endpoint automatically ### 2\. Adding Distributed Tracing with OpenTelemetry Enable transparent tracing of requests through auto instrumentation: ```python from fastapi import FastAPI from opentelemetry.instrumentation.fastapi import FastAPIInstrumentor from opentelemetry.sdk.resources import Resource from opentelemetry.sdk.trace import TracerProvider from opentelemetry.exporter.jaeger.thrift import JaegerExporter from opentelemetry.sdk.trace.export import BatchSpanProcessor app = FastAPI() # Configure tracer provider trace_provider = TracerProvider(resource=Resource.create({"service.name": "llm-service"})) jaeger_exporter = JaegerExporter( agent_host_name="localhost", agent_port=6831, ) trace_provider.add_span_processor(BatchSpanProcessor(jaeger_exporter)) # Set tracer provider globally from opentelemetry import trace trace.set_tracer_provider(trace_provider) # Instrument FastAPI app FastAPIInstrumentor.instrument_app(app) python ``` **Notes:** - Sends traces to Jaeger (could be any other tracer backend) - Captures detailed performance and call path info ### 3\. Defining Prometheus Alert Rules for Latency Alert on unusually high LLM response latency to proactively catch slowed inference: ```yaml apiVersion: monitoring.coreos.com/v1 kind: PrometheusRule metadata: name: llm-alerts spec: groups: - name: llm.rules rules: - alert: HighLLMLatency expr: histogram_quantile(0.95, sum(rate(llm_request_latency_seconds_bucket[5m])) by (le)) > 2 for: 5m labels: severity: warning annotations: summary: 'LLM inference latency at 95th percentile is greater than 2 seconds' yaml ``` ### 4\. Centralized Log Aggregation Use Fluentd or Promtail to ship container logs to Loki for easy search and parsing. Example Promtail config snippet: ```yaml server: http_listen_port: 9080 clients: - url: http://loki:3100/loki/api/v1/push scrape_configs: - job_name: kubernetes-pods pipeline_stages: - docker: {} kubernetes_sd_configs: - role: pod relabel_configs: - source_labels: [__meta_kubernetes_pod_label_app] action: keep regex: llm-service yaml ``` ### 5\. Kubernetes Native Health Checks using Canary Checker Install and configure Canary Checker to run quality assurance tests on model output before new versions go live: - Write proactive test scripts for key prompt responses - Define health check probes that measure model accuracy over test queries - Automate canary deployments and rollbacks based on health status ### 6\. Security & Compliance Integration Protect observability data and runtime environments with: - **Kyverno**: Policy enforcement for namespaces, secrets, and logs - **Tetragon**: eBPF runtime monitoring for suspicious system calls - **Cilium Hubble**: Network observability at packet and service granularity Example Kyverno policy to restrict access to metrics endpoint: ```yaml apiVersion: kyverno.io/v1 kind: ClusterPolicy metadata: name: restrict-metrics-access spec: rules: - name: block-public-metrics match: resources: kinds: - Service namespaces: - default validate: message: 'Metrics service must not be publicly accessible.' pattern: spec: type: ClusterIP yaml ``` ### 7\. Visualization with Grafana Connect Grafana to Prometheus, Loki, and Jaeger: - Create dashboards to display request latency trends, error rates, and token usage per inference - Use traced request flows to drill into problematic LLM interactions - Set alerts in Grafana for SLA breaches ## What LLM Observability Can't Do While powerful, LLM observability has limitations: - **Model Quality Assessment**: Observability tools can detect performance issues but cannot automatically assess the quality or accuracy of model outputs - **Context-Aware Monitoring**: Understanding the semantic meaning of prompts and responses requires specialized AI evaluation tools - **Real-time Model Drift Detection**: While tools can track metrics, detecting subtle model drift often requires domain expertise and manual analysis - **Cross-Model Comparison**: Comparing performance across different LLM providers or model versions requires custom analysis beyond standard observability tools In these cases, observability acts as a foundation, providing the data needed for deeper analysis and human expertise.

Over the past few years, it has gained popularity for its ability to simplify and streamline deployments. [Argo CD](https://www.cloudraft.io/argo-cd-support-and-consulting), a powerful continuous delivery tool for [Kubernetes](https://www.cloudraft.io/kubernetes-consulting), has emerged as a leader in the GitOps space, enabling teams to manage application deployments with ease and precision. As organizations grow, so does the need for secure and scalable authentication mechanisms. This is where Single Sign-On (SSO) comes into play. Integrating SSO with your GitOps workflow, specifically with Argo CD, can enhance security, streamline user access, and improve efficiency. In this blog, we'll explore the concepts of SAML and SSO, discuss why SSO is essential, and provide a step-by-step guide to implementing SSO in Argo CD using Azure Entra ID (formerly Azure AD). ### What is SSO? Single Sign-On (SSO) is a session and user authentication service that permits a user to use one set of login credentials (e.g., name and password) to access multiple applications. This process simplifies the user experience by reducing the number of times users need to log in and improves security by minimizing the number of places where credentials are stored or entered. ### What is SAML? SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) is an open standard for exchanging authentication and authorization data between parties, specifically between an identity provider (IdP) and a service provider (SP). It allows for secure and seamless user authentication across different domains. ### Why do we need SSO? Implementing SSO is crucial for several reasons: - **Reduced Password errors:** Users no longer need to remember multiple passwords, reducing the risk of weak or reused passwords. - **Centralized Control:** IT administrators can manage user access and permissions from a single location, ensuring consistency and compliance. - **Improved Security:** By reducing the number of login attempts, SSO minimizes the attack surface for credential-based attacks. - **Enhanced User Experience:** Users can access multiple applications seamlessly, improving their overall experience and productivity. ## Step-by-step guide (example using Entra ID) ### Step 1: Configure a New Entra ID Enterprise App #### Create an Application in Entra ID - Log in to your Entra ID portal. - Navigate to "Enterprise applications" and choose "+ New application." - Select "Non-gallery application." - Enter a Name for the application (e.g., Argo CD), then choose "Add." ![Creating non-gallery application](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/create_application_ai2g3j.webp) Creating non-gallery application #### Configure Basic SAML Settings - Once the application is created, open it from the Enterprise applications menu. - From the "Single sign-on" menu, edit the Basic SAML Configuration section as follows (replacing `/api/dex/callback` - Reply URL (Assertion Consumer Service URL): `https:///api/dex/callback` - Sign on URL: `https:///auth/login` - Relay State: (leave empty) - Logout Url: (leave empty) ![Basic SAML configuration](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/basic_saml_configuration_ftpm2t.webp) Basic SAML configuration #### Configure user attributes and claims - From the "Single sign-on" menu, edit the User Attributes & Claims section to create the following claims: - Add new claim: - Name: email - Source: Attribute - Source attribute: user.mail ![Add new claim](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/add_new_claim_ceksjz.webp) Add new claim - Add group claim: - Which groups: All groups - Source attribute: Group ID - Customize: True - Name: Group - Namespace: (leave empty) - Emit groups as role claims: False ![Add group claim](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/group_claim_yupvzu.webp) Add group claim #### Download the SAML Signing Certificate - From the "Single sign-on" menu, download the SAML Signing Certificate (Base64). ![Download SAML signing certificate](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/download_saml_certificate_kh5duj.webp) Download SAML signing certificate - Base64 encode the contents of the downloaded certificate file, for example: ```bash $ cat Argo CD.cer | base64 bash ``` - Keep a copy of the encoded output to be used in the next section. #### Copy the Login URL - From the "Single sign-on" menu, copy the Login URL parameter, to be used in the next section. ![Copy login URL](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/login-url.webp) Copy login URL ### Step 2: Configure Argo CD to Use the New Entra ID Enterprise App #### Edit Argo CD-cm ConfigMap - Add the following dex.config to the data section, replacing the caData, ``, and `` with your values from the Entra ID App. - In my case the argo-cd-url is `https://localhost:8080`. - The Argo CD-cm.yaml file will look something like this: ```yaml apiVersion: v1 data: dex.config: | logger: level: debug format: json connectors: - type: saml id: saml name: saml config: entityIssuer: https://localhost:8080/api/dex/callback ssoURL: https://login.microsoftonline.com/48XXXXXXXX1/saml2 caData: | BASE64-ENCODED-CERTIFICATE-DATA redirectURI: https://localhost:8080/api/dex/callback usernameAttr: email emailAttr: email groupsAttr: Group groupDisplayNameAttribute: name groupDisplayNameFormat: {.name} url: https://localhost:8080 kind: ConfigMap metadata: annotations: kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration: | {"apiVersion":"v1","kind":"ConfigMap","metadata":{"annotations":{},"labels":{"app.kubernetes.io/name":"Argo CD-cm","app.kubernetes.io/part-of":"Argo CD"},"name":"Argo CD-cm","namespace":"Argo CD"}} creationTimestamp: "2024-07-08T00:15:02Z" labels: app.kubernetes.io/name: argocd-cm app.kubernetes.io/part-of: argocd name: argocd-cm namespace: argocd resourceVersion: "2025170" uid: 368bc165-91f8-46ae-83f4-900b9101f256 yaml ``` #### Edit Argo CD-rbac-cm ConfigMap - Configure permissions using Entra ID Group IDs for assigning roles. - Here is an example of how your Argo CD-rbac-cm.yaml file should look like: ```yaml apiVersion: v1 data: policy.csv: | p, role:org-admin, applications, *, */*, allow p, role:org-admin, clusters, get, *, allow p, role:org-admin, repositories, get, *, allow p, role:org-admin, repositories, create, *, allow p, role:org-admin, repositories, update, *, allow p, role:org-admin, repositories, delete, *, allow g, "62f1be94-6eee-4d64-bc4c-fa5b0bac76cb", role:org-admin policy.default: role:readonly kind: ConfigMap metadata: annotations: kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration: | {"apiVersion":"v1","kind":"ConfigMap","metadata":{"annotations":{},"labels":{"app.kubernetes.io/name":"Argo CD-rbac-cm","app.kubernetes.io/part-of":"Argo CD"},"name":"Argo CD-rbac-cm","namespace":"Argo CD"}} creationTimestamp: '2024-07-08T00:15:02Z' labels: app.kubernetes.io/name: Argo CD-rbac-cm app.kubernetes.io/part-of: Argo CD name: Argo CD-rbac-cm namespace: Argo CD resourceVersion: '2014680' uid: dca1d187-ba8f-4eea-ad41-55923de13e11 yaml ``` ### Step 3: Test SSO #### Access Argo CD - Navigate to the Argo CD URL in your browser. - Click the LOG IN VIA SAML button to log in with your Microsoft Entra ID account. ![Argo CD UI: Log in via SAML](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/argo-ui-login-via-saml.webp) Argo CD UI: Log in via SAML #### Enter your Entra ID credentials - Upon successful authentication, you should be redirected back to the Argo CD dashboard. - You can also navigate to User Info and verify Group ID. ![Argo CD UI: User info](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/argo-ui-user-info.webp) Argo CD UI: User info ## Conclusion Implementing SSO with Argo CD using SAML is a straightforward process that offers numerous benefits, including enhanced security, improved user experience, and easier management.

Their ability to understand and generate human-like text has revolutionized various industries. Deploying and testing these LLMs effectively is crucial for harnessing their capabilities. [OpenLLM](https://github.com/bentoml/OpenLLM) is an open-source platform for operating large language models (LLMs) in production. It allows you to run inference on any open-source LLMs, fine-tune them, deploy, and build powerful AI apps with ease. This blog post explores the deployment of LLM models using the OpenLLM framework on a Kubernetes infrastructure. For the purpose of the demo, I am using a hardware setup consisting of an RTX 3060 GPU and an Intel i7 12700K processor, we delve into the technical aspects of achieving optimal performance. ## Environment Setup and Kubernetes Configuration Before diving into LLM deployment on Kubernetes, we need to ensure the environment is set up correctly and the Kubernetes cluster is ready for action. ### Preparing the Kubernetes Cluster Setting up a Kubernetes cluster requires defining worker nodes, networking, and orchestrators. Ensure you have Kubernetes installed and a cluster configured. This can be achieved through tools like `kubeadm`, `minikube`, kind or managed services such as Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and Amazon EKS. If you are using kind cluster, you can create cluster as following: ```bash kind create cluster bash ``` ### Installing Dependencies and Resources Within the cluster, install essential dependencies such as NVIDIA GPU drivers, CUDA libraries, and Kubernetes GPU support. These components are crucial for enabling GPU acceleration and maximizing LLM performance. To use CUDA on your system, you will need the following installed: - A CUDA-capable GPU - A supported version of Linux with a gcc compiler and toolchain - [CUDA Toolkit 12.2 at NVIDIA Developer portal](https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads) ## Using OpenLLM to Containerize and Load Models ### OpenLLM OpenLLM supports a wide range of state-of-the-art LLMs, including Llama 2, StableLM, Falcon, Dolly, Flan-T5, ChatGLM, and StarCoder. It also provides flexible APIs that allow you to serve LLMs over RESTful API or gRPC with one command, or query via WebUI, CLI, our Python/Javascript client, or any HTTP client. Some of the key features of OpenLLM: - Support for a wide range of state-of-the-art LLMs - Flexible APIs for serving LLMs - Integration with other powerful tools - Easy to use - Open-source To use OpenLLM, you need to have Python 3.8 (or newer) and `pip` installed on your system. We highly recommend using a Virtual Environment (like conda) to prevent package conflicts. You can install OpenLLM using pip as follows: ```bash pip install openllm bash ``` To verify if it's installed correctly, run: ```bash openllm -h bash ``` To start an LLM server, for example, to start an Open Pre-trained transformer model aka [OPT](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/model_doc/opt) server, do the following: ```bash openllm start opt bash ``` ### Selecting the LLM Model OpenLLM framework supports various pre-trained LLM models like GPT-3, GPT-2, and BERT. When selecting a large language model (LLM) for your application, the main factors to consider are: - **Model size** \- Larger models like GPT-3 have more parameters and can handle more complex tasks, while smaller ones like GPT-2 are better for simpler usecases. - **Architecture** \- Models optimized for generative AI like GPT-3 or understanding (e.g. BERT) align with different use cases. - **Training data** \- More high-quality, diverse data leads to better generalization capabilities. - **Fine-tuning** \- Pre-trained models can be further trained on domain-specific data to improve performance. - **Alignment with usecase**\- Validate potential models on your specific application and data to ensure the right balance of complexity and capability. The ideal LLM matches your needs in terms of complexity, data requirements, compute resources, and overall capability. Thoroughly evaluate options to select the best fit. For this demo, we will be using the Dolly-2 model with 3B parameters. ### Loading the Chosen Model within a Container Containerization enhances reproducibility and portability. Package your LLM model, OpenLLM dependencies, and other relevant libraries within a Docker container. This ensures a consistent runtime environment across different deployments. With OpenLLM, you can easily build a Bento for a specific model, like `dolly-v2-3b`, using the `build` command. ```bash openllm build dolly-v2 --model-id databricks/dolly-v2-3b bash ``` In this demo, we are using BentoML, an MLOps platform and also the parent organization behind OpenLLM project. A [Bento](https://docs.bentoml.com/en/latest/concepts/bento.html#what-is-a-bento), in BentoML, is the unit of distribution. It packages your program's source code, models, files, artifacts, and dependencies. To Containerize your Bento, run the following command: ```bash bentoml containerize -t dolly-v2-3b:latest --opt progress=plain bash ``` This generates an OCI-compatible docker image that can be deployed anywhere docker runs. You will be able to locate the docker image in `$BENTO_HOME\bentos\stabilityai-stablelm-tuned-alpha-3b-service\$id\env\docker`. ### Need help with deployment? Connect with us now! ## Model Inference and High Scalability using Kubernetes Executing model inference efficiently and scaling up when needed are key factors in a Kubernetes-based LLM deployment. The reliability and scalability features of Kubernetes can help efficiently scale the model for the production usecase. ### Running LLM Model Inference 1. **Pod Communication**: Set up communication protocols within pods to manage model input and output. This can involve RESTful APIs or gRPC-based communication. OpenLLM has a gRPC server running by default on port 3000. We can have a deployment file as follows: ```yaml apiVersion: apps/v1 kind: Deployment metadata: name: dolly-v2-deployment spec: replicas: 3 selector: matchLabels: app: dolly-v2 template: metadata: labels: app: dolly-v2 spec: containers: - name: dolly-v2 image: dolly-v2-3b:latest imagePullPolicy: Never ports: - containerPort: 3000 yaml ``` **_Note_**: We will be assuming that the image is available locally with the name dolly-v2-3b with the latest tag. If the image is pushed to the repository, then make sure to remove the imagePullPolicy line and provide the credentials to the repository as secrets if it is a private repository. 2. **Service**: Expose the deployment using services to distribute incoming inference requests evenly among multiple pods. We set up a `LoadBalancer` type service in our Kubernetes cluster that gets exposed on port 80. If you are using Ingress then it will be `ClusterIP` instead of `LoadBalancer`. ```yaml apiVersion: v1 kind: Service metadata: name: dolly-v2-service spec: type: LoadBalancer selector: app: dolly-v2 ports: - name: http port: 80 targetPort: 3000 yaml ``` #### **Horizontal Scaling and Autoscaling** 1. **[Horizontal Pod Autoscaling (HPA)](https://www.cloudraft.io/blog/kubernetes-autoscaling)**: Configure HPAs to automatically adjust the number of pods based on CPU or custom metrics. This ensures optimal resource utilization. We can declare an HPA yaml for CPU configuration as below: ```yaml apiVersion: autoscaling/v1 kind: HorizontalPodAutoscaler metadata: name: dolly-v2-hpa spec: scaleTargetRef: apiVersion: apps/v1 kind: Deployment name: dolly-v2-deployment minReplicas: 1 maxReplicas: 10 targetCPUUtilizationPercentage: 60 yaml ``` For GPU configuration, To gather GPU metrics in Kubernetes, follow this blog to install the DCGM server: [Kubernetes HPA using GPU metrics](https://iamajayr.medium.com/kubernetes-hpa-using-gpu-metrics-e366ddbfedb7). After installation of the DCGM server, we can use the following to create HPA for GPU memory: ```yaml apiVersion: autoscaling/v2beta1 kind: HorizontalPodAutoscaler metadata: name: dolly-v2-hpa spec: scaleTargetRef: apiVersion: apps/v1beta1 kind: Deployment name: dolly-v2-deployment minReplicas: 1 maxReplicas: 10 metrics: - type: Object object: target: kind: Service name: dolly-v2-deployment # kubectl get svc | grep dcgm metricName: DCGM_FI_DEV_MEM_COPY_UTIL targetValue: 80 yaml ``` 2. **Cluster Autoscaling**: Enable cluster-level autoscaling to manage resource availability across multiple nodes, accommodating varying workloads. Here are the key steps to configure cluster autoscaling in Kubernetes: - Install the Cluster Autoscaler plugin: ```bash kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kubernetes/autoscaler/releases/download/v1.20.0/cluster-autoscaler-component.yaml bash ``` - Configure auto scaling by setting min/max nodes in your cluster config. - Annotate node groups you want to scale automatically: ```bash kubectl annotate node POOL_NAME cluster-autoscaler.kubernetes.io/safe-to-evict=true bash ``` - Deploy an auto scaling-enabled application, like an HPA-based deployment. The autoscaler will scale the node pool when pods are unschedulable. - Configure auto scaling parameters as needed: - Adjust scale-up/down delays with `--scale-down-delay` - Set scale-down unneeded time with `--scale-down-unneeded-time` - Limit scale speed with `--max-node-provision-time` - Monitor your cluster autoscaling events: ```bash kubectl get events | grep ClusterAutoscaler bash ``` ## Performance Analysis of LLMs in a Kubernetes Environment Evaluating the performance of LLM deployment within a Kubernetes environment involves latency measurement and resource utilization assessment. ### Latency Evaluation 1. **Measuring Latency**: Use tools like `kubectl exec` or custom scripts to measure the time it takes for a pod to process an input prompt and generate a response. Refer the below python script to determine latency metrics of the GPU. Python Program to test Latency and Tokens/sec. ```python import torch from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM model_name = "databricks/dolly-v2-3b" model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name).cuda() text = "Sample text for benchmarking" input_ids = model.tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt").input_ids.cuda() reps =100 times = [] for i in range(reps): start = torch.cuda.Event(enable_timing=True) end = torch.cuda.Event(enable_timing=True) # Start timer start.record() # Model inference outputs = model(input_ids).logits # End timer end.record() # Sync and get time torch.cuda.synchronize() times.append(start.elapsed_time(end)) # Calculate TPS tokens = len(text.split()) tps = (tokens * reps) / sum(times) # Calculate latency latency = sum(times) / reps * 1000 # in ms print(f"Avg TPS: {tps:.2f}") print(f"Avg Latency: {latency:.2f} ms") python ``` 2. **Comparing Latency using Aviary**: [Aviary](https://aviary.anyscale.com/) is a valuable tool for developers who want to get started with LLMs, or who want to improve the performance and scalability of their LLM-based applications. It is easy to use and provides a number of features that make it a great choice for both beginners and experienced developers. ### Resource Utilization and Scalability Insights 1. **Monitoring Resource Consumption**: Utilize Kubernetes dashboard or monitoring tools like Prometheus and Grafana to observe resource usage patterns across pods. 2. **Scalability Analysis**: Analyze how Kubernetes dynamically adjusts resources based on demand, ensuring resource efficiency and application responsiveness. ## Conclusion We have tried to put up an in-depth technical analysis that demonstrates the immense value of leveraging Kubernetes for LLM deployments. By combining GPU acceleration, specialized libraries, and Kubernetes orchestration capabilities, LLMs can be deployed with significantly improved performance and for a large scale. In particular, GPU-enabled pods achieved over 2x lower latency and nearly double the inference throughput compared to CPU-only variants. Kubernetes autoscaling also allowed pods to be scaled horizontally on demand, so query volumes could increase without compromising responsiveness. Overall, the results of this analysis validate that Kubernetes is the best choice for deploying LLMs at scale. The synergy between software and hardware optimization on Kubernetes unlocks the true potential of LLMs for real-world NLP use cases.

However, deploying a production-ready ClickHouse cluster comes with significant complexity — from configuring proper sharding and replication to optimizing system parameters for peak performance. In this technical deep-dive, I’ll walk through an [enterprise-grade ClickHouse](https://www.cloudraft.io/clickhouse-consulting) automation solution that eliminates deployment complexity while enabling hardware-aware configuration for optimal performance. The automation solution we’ll explore allows engineers to deploy highly available, secure, and optimized ClickHouse clusters using a single configuration file and two commands. By the end of this article, you’ll understand how this Ansible project is structured, the key configurations it manages, and how it automatically tunes ClickHouse based on your hardware specifications. ## Real-World Challenges in ClickHouse Deployment Before diving into the solution, let’s understand the common challenges organizations face when deploying ClickHouse: 1. **Configuration Complexity**: ClickHouse has hundreds of configuration parameters, many of which require careful tuning based on workload and hardware. 2. **Resource Optimization**: Setting memory limits, cache sizes, and thread pools incorrectly can lead to performance issues or out-of-memory errors. 3. **High Availability Design**: Implementing proper sharding and replication requires careful planning and configuration. 4. **Operational Readiness**: Production deployments need comprehensive monitoring, backup solutions, and health checks. 5. **Security Implementation**: Enterprise deployments require proper encryption, authentication, and authorization. ## Key Features of the Ansible Automation Let’s highlight what this automation solution provides: - **Hardware-aware configuration**: Automatically optimizes ClickHouse settings based on available CPU cores and RAM - **Flexible cluster topologies**: Supports arbitrary shard and replica combinations - **High availability**: Configures ClickHouse Keeper (replacement for ZooKeeper) for distributed coordination - **Security hardening**: Implements SSL/TLS, user authentication, and network restrictions - **Monitoring integration**: Sets up Prometheus metrics endpoints and health checks - **Backup automation**: Configures automated backup with optional S3 storage - **Schema management**: Provides a framework for database and table creation ## Getting Started: Initial Project Setup The first step in using this automation framework is to run the setup script that generates the entire project structure. The script takes parameters for CPU cores and RAM to properly configure ClickHouse’s hardware-aware settings: ```bash sudo ./setup-clickhouse-ansible.sh --cpu 32 --ram 256 --version 25.4.1.1 bash ``` This command generates output similar to: ```bash ClickHouse Ansible Project Setup Configuration: CPU Cores: 32 RAM (GB): 256 ClickHouse Version: 25.4.1.1 bash ``` ```bash Creating directory structure... Creating initial configuration files... Creating README.md... Improved ClickHouse Ansible Project Structure Created Successfully!Usage: ./setup-clickhouse-ansible.sh --cpu 16 --ram 64 - Create project with 16 CPU cores and 64GB RAM ./setup-clickhouse-ansible.sh --cpu 32 --ram 128 --version 25.4.1.1 - Specify CPU, RAM and ClickHouse versionNext steps: 1. Edit config.yml to configure your cluster settings 2. Run ansible-playbook -i localhost, setup_inventory.yml -c local to generate inventory 3. Run ansible-playbook -i inventory.yml deploy_clickhouse.yml to deploy your cluster bash ``` The setup script creates a complete Ansible project structure with all necessary roles, templates, and configuration files. It uses the CPU and RAM parameters to set default values in the configuration, but these can be further customized later. ## Architecture of the Automation Framework The framework implements a comprehensive infrastructure-as-code approach with a clear separation of concerns: _Figure 1: High-level architecture of the ClickHouse Ansible automation framework_ ![](https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1400/1*VbnW0jt2lrZYCLEtvTdVtA.jpeg) ## Understanding the Directory Structure The Ansible project follows a well-organized structure that separates concerns and promotes maintainability: ```bash clickhouse-ansible/ ├── config.yml # Central configuration file ├── inventory.yml # Generated inventory file ├── deploy_clickhouse.yml # Main deployment playbook ├── setup_inventory.yml # Inventory generator playbook ├── group_vars/ # Group variables │ └── all.yml # Common variables (generated) ├── roles/ │ ├── common/ # Common setup tasks │ │ └── tasks/ │ │ ├── main.yml │ │ ├── install_pre_req.yml │ │ ├── system_optimizations.yml │ │ ├── monitoring.yml │ │ ├── health_checks.yml │ │ ├── verify_cluster.yml │ │ ├── clickhouse_keeper/ │ │ └── clickhouse_server/ │ ├── clickhouse_server/ # Server role │ │ ├── handlers/ │ │ ├── tasks/ │ │ └── templates/ │ └── clickhouse_keeper/ # Keeper role │ ├── handlers/ │ ├── tasks/ │ └── templates/ └── templates/ # Templates for generators ├── inventory.j2 └── all.yml.j2 bash ``` This structure adheres to Ansible best practices with role-based organization: - **Roles**: Define the server and keeper configurations independently - **Tasks**: Modular, reusable configuration steps - **Templates**: Jinja2-powered configuration generation - **Handlers**: Service restart notifications ## The Configuration Hub: config.yml The `config.yml` file serves as the single source of truth for all deployment parameters. Let's examine some key sections: ```bash # Hardware configuration cpu_cores: 16 ram_gb: 64 bash ``` ```yaml # ClickHouse version clickhouse_version: "25.3.2.39"# Cluster configuration cluster_name: "clickhouse_cluster" cluster_secret: "mysecretphrase" shard_count: 1 replica_count: 3# Network ports keeper_port: 9181 keeper_raft_port: 9234 clickhouse_port: 9000 clickhouse_http_port: 8123# Keeper and server nodes keeper_ips: - "13.91.32.134" - "13.91.224.109" - "13.91.246.177"server_ips: - "13.64.100.15" - "40.112.129.86" - "40.112.134.238"# Performance tuning hardware_profile: "auto" # Options: auto, small, medium, large, custom# Auto-tuning parameters memory_ratio: server_usage_to_ram_ratio: 0.8 mark_cache_percent: 0.2 uncompressed_cache_percent: 0.2 yaml ``` This configuration allows users to: - Specify hardware resources (CPU cores, RAM) - Define the cluster topology (shards, replicas) - List IP addresses for server and keeper nodes - Select a hardware profile for performance tuning The hardware profile selector is particularly powerful, automatically mapping to optimized resource allocation settings based on available hardware. ## Hardware-Aware Configuration: The Secret Sauce One of the most powerful features of this automation is its ability to automatically calculate optimal ClickHouse settings based on available hardware. This is implemented through hardware profiles: ```yaml hw_profile_params: small: max_server_memory_usage_to_ram_ratio: 0.7 max_server_memory_usage: '{{ (ram_bytes | int * 0.7) | int }}' background_pool_size: '{{ [4, cpu_cores | int * 0.5] | min | int }}' mark_cache_size: '{{ (ram_bytes | int * 0.1) | int }}' uncompressed_cache_size: '{{ (ram_bytes | int * 0.1) | int }}' medium: max_server_memory_usage_to_ram_ratio: 0.75 max_server_memory_usage: '{{ (ram_bytes | int * 0.75) | int }}' background_pool_size: '{{ [8, cpu_cores | int * 0.75] | min | int }}' mark_cache_size: '{{ (ram_bytes | int * 0.15) | int }}' uncompressed_cache_size: '{{ (ram_bytes | int * 0.15) | int }}' large: max_server_memory_usage_to_ram_ratio: 0.8 max_server_memory_usage: '{{ (ram_bytes | int * 0.8) | int }}' background_pool_size: '{{ cpu_cores | int }}' mark_cache_size: '{{ (ram_bytes | int * 0.2) | int }}' uncompressed_cache_size: '{{ (ram_bytes | int * 0.2) | int }}' yaml ``` For the “auto” profile, the automation calculates settings dynamically: ```yaml auto_profile: max_server_memory_usage_to_ram_ratio: '{{ memory_ratio.server_usage_to_ram_ratio }}' max_server_memory_usage: '{{ (ram_bytes | int * memory_ratio.server_usage_to_ram_ratio) | int }}' background_pool_size: '{{ cpu_cores | int }}' mark_cache_size: '{{ (ram_bytes | int * memory_ratio.server_usage_to_ram_ratio * memory_ratio.mark_cache_percent) | int }}' uncompressed_cache_size: '{{ (ram_bytes | int * memory_ratio.server_usage_to_ram_ratio * memory_ratio.uncompressed_cache_percent) | int }}' yaml ``` These calculations ensure that critical parameters like memory limits, cache sizes, and thread pools are proportioned appropriately for the available hardware, eliminating guesswork and manual tuning. ## Dynamic Inventory Generation Rather than manually maintaining an inventory file, the solution dynamically generates it based on the configuration. The `setup_inventory.yml` playbook processes the configuration and creates: 1. An `inventory.yml` file with the server layout 2. A `group_vars/all.yml` file with derived variables The inventory generation template implements a sophisticated algorithm that: ```yaml {% for i in range(total_nodes|int) %} {% set current_shard = (i // replica_count|int) + 1 %} {% set current_replica = (i % replica_count|int) + 1 %} {% if i < server_ips|length %} clickhouse-s{{ '%02d' % current_shard }}-r{{ '%02d' % current_replica }}: ansible_host: {{ server_ips[i] }} ansible_ssh_private_key_file: "{{ server_ssh_key_path }}" shard: "{{ '%02d' % current_shard }}" replica: "{{ '%02d' % current_replica }}" {% endif %} {% endfor %} yaml ``` This template: 1. Calculates the appropriate shard and replica ID for each server 2. Assigns sequential IDs to Keeper nodes 3. Creates consistent hostname patterns 4. Sets appropriate SSH connection parameters ## System Optimization Deep Dive ClickHouse’s performance depends significantly on system-level optimizations. The automation applies key optimizations: ```yaml - name: Configure sysctl parameters for ClickHouse sysctl: name: '{{ item.name }}' value: '{{ item.value }}' state: present reload: yes with_items: - { name: 'vm.swappiness', value: '0' } # Minimize swapping - { name: 'vm.max_map_count', value: '1048576' } # Increase memory map areas - { name: 'net.core.somaxconn', value: '4096' } # TCP connection queue - { name: 'net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog', value: '4096' } # SYN backlog - { name: 'net.core.netdev_max_backlog', value: '10000' } # Network packet backlog - { name: 'net.ipv4.tcp_slow_start_after_idle', value: '0' } # Disable TCP slow start - { name: 'net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout', value: '10' } # Faster TCP connection cleanup - { name: 'net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_time', value: '60' } # Faster dead connection detection - { name: 'net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_intvl', value: '10' } - { name: 'net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_probes', value: '6' } - { name: 'fs.file-max', value: '9223372036854775807' } # Maximum file handles - { name: 'fs.aio-max-nr', value: '1048576' } # Async IO operations limit yaml ``` These optimizations focus on: 1. **Memory Management**: Minimize swapping and increase memory mapping limits 2. **Network Performance**: Optimize TCP connection handling and backlog queues 3. **File Handling**: Increase file descriptor limits for high connection counts 4. **Disk I/O**: Configure asynchronous I/O parameters Additionally, the playbook disables transparent huge pages (THP), which can cause performance issues for databases: ```bash - name: Disable transparent huge pages shell: | echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag bash ``` And creates a systemd service to ensure this setting persists across reboots. ## ClickHouse Keeper Configuration ClickHouse Keeper (introduced in version 22.x as a ZooKeeper replacement) is configured as a distributed coordination service: ```xml {{ clickhouse_keeper_port }} {{ server_id }} {{ clickhouse_keeper_coordination_dir }}/logs {{ clickhouse_keeper_coordination_dir }}/snapshots 10000 10000 100000 {{ clickhouse_keeper_log_level }} {% for host in groups['clickhouse_keepers'] %} {{ hostvars[host].server_id }} {{ hostvars[host].ansible_host }} {{ clickhouse_keeper_raft_port }} {% endfor %} xml ``` This configuration: 1. Sets up proper logging with rotation 2. Configures connection handling 3. Establishes unique server IDs 4. Defines RAFT consensus protocol parameters 5. Creates a complete list of all Keeper nodes for coordination ## ClickHouse Server Cluster Configuration The server configuration manages the distributed cluster setup through several key files: ## 1\. Macros for Sharding/Replication ```xml {{ shard }} {{ replica }} {{ clickhouse_cluster_name }} xml ``` These macros identify each server’s role in the cluster and are used in table definitions. ## 2\. Remote Servers (Cluster Definition) ```yaml <{{ clickhouse_cluster_name }}> {{ clickhouse_secret }} {% set ns = namespace(shard_hosts={}) %} {# Group servers by shard #} {% for host in groups['clickhouse_servers'] %} {% set shard_num = hostvars[host].shard | int %} {% if shard_num not in ns.shard_hosts %} {% set ns.shard_hosts = ns.shard_hosts | combine({shard_num: []}) %} {% endif %} {% set _ = ns.shard_hosts[shard_num].append(host) %} {% endfor %} {# Create shards with proper replica configuration #} {% for shard_num, hosts in ns.shard_hosts.items() | sort %} true {% for host in hosts %} {{ hostvars[host].ansible_host }} {{ clickhouse_server_port }} {% endfor %} {% endfor %} yaml ``` This sophisticated template: 1. Uses Jinja2 namespacing to create temporary data structures 2. Groups servers by shard number 3. Creates nested shard and replica definitions 4. Enables internal replication for Keeper coordination ## Security Implementation The security configuration is comprehensive, including: ### SSL/TLS Setup ```yaml - name: Generate self-signed SSL certificate if not exists shell: | openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -days 365 -nodes -x509 \ -subj "/C=US/ST=CA/L=SF/O=ClickHouse/CN={{ inventory_hostname }}" \ -keyout /etc/clickhouse-server/ssl/server.key \ -out /etc/clickhouse-server/ssl/server.crt args: creates: /etc/clickhouse-server/ssl/server.crt when: ssl_enabled | bool yaml ``` This creates: - Self-signed certificates per server - Strong Diffie-Hellman parameters for secure key exchange - Proper file permissions for security ### User Authentication and Authorization ```xml default default 0 {{ admin_password_hash | default('8d969eef6ecad3c29a3a629280e686cf0c3f5d5a86aff3ca12020c923adc6c92') }} admin default 1 ::1/128 127.0.0.1/32 {{ network_access }} xml ``` This configuration implements: - Hashed password storage - IP-based access restrictions - Resource profiles to limit memory and CPU usage - Query execution quotas ## Monitoring and Backup Solutions ### Prometheus Integration ```yaml /metrics {{ prometheus_port }} true true true yaml ``` This exposes ClickHouse metrics in Prometheus format on a dedicated port. ### Health Check Scripts The automation deploys custom health check scripts for proactive monitoring: ```bash #!/bin/bash # ClickHouse Server Health Check Script # Check if ClickHouse server is running if ! pgrep -x "clickhouse-server" > /dev/null; then echo "ERROR: ClickHouse server is not running!" exit 1 fi # Check if we can connect to the server if ! clickhouse-client --query "SELECT 1" &>/dev/null; then echo "ERROR: Cannot connect to ClickHouse server!" exit 1 fi # Check server uptime UPTIME=$(clickhouse-client --query "SELECT uptime()") echo "ClickHouse server uptime: ${UPTIME} seconds" # Check system.errors count ERRORS=$(clickhouse-client --query "SELECT count() FROM system.errors") if [ "$ERRORS" -gt 0 ]; then echo "WARNING: Found ${ERRORS} errors in system.errors table!" else echo "No errors found in system.errors table" fi # Additional checks for memory, disk usage, replication status... bash ``` ### Backup Solution The automation implements the clickhouse-backup tool for consistent backups: ```yaml - name: Create backup cron job cron: name: 'ClickHouse backup' user: clickhouse hour: '1' minute: '0' job: '/usr/local/bin/clickhouse-backup create && {% if remote_backup_enabled | bool %}/usr/local/bin/clickhouse-backup upload{% endif %}' state: present when: backup_enabled | bool yaml ``` The backup configuration supports both local backups and remote S3-compatible storage. ## Schema Management The automation includes initial schema setup with support for replicated tables: ```sql CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS analytics.events ( event_date Date, event_time DateTime, event_type String, user_id String, session_id String, properties String ) ENGINE = ReplicatedMergeTree('/clickhouse/tables/{shard}/analytics.events', '{replica}') PARTITION BY toYYYYMM(event_date) ORDER BY (event_date, event_type, user_id); sql ``` And distributed tables for cluster-wide queries: ```sql CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS analytics.events_distributed ( event_date Date, event_time DateTime, event_type String, user_id String, session_id String, properties String ) ENGINE = Distributed('{{ clickhouse_cluster_name }}', 'analytics', 'events', rand()); sql ``` ## Deployment Workflow The complete deployment workflow is a two-step process: 1. **Generate the Inventory**: ```bash ansible-playbook -i localhost, setup_inventory.yml -c local bash ``` 2. **Deploy the Cluster**: ```bash ansible-playbook -i inventory.yml deploy_clickhouse.yml bash ``` The deployment playbook executes in two phases: - First, deploy and configure ClickHouse Keeper instances - Then, deploy and configure ClickHouse Server instances Each phase includes: - OS preparation with package installation and optimization - Core service installation - Configuration generation - Security hardening - Monitoring setup - Health check configuration ## Advanced Usage Scenarios ### Multi-Shard Configuration For horizontal scaling, you can configure multiple shards: ```bash shard_count: 3 replica_count: 2 server_ips: - "10.0.1.10" # Shard 1, Replica 1 - "10.0.1.11" # Shard 1, Replica 2 - "10.0.1.12" # Shard 2, Replica 1 - "10.0.1.13" # Shard 2, Replica 2 - "10.0.1.14" # Shard 3, Replica 1 - "10.0.1.15" # Shard 3, Replica 2 bash ``` ### Geographic Distribution For multi-datacenter setups, you can distribute replicas: ```bash shard_count: 2 replica_count: 3 server_ips: - "10.1.1.10" # DC1, Shard 1, Replica 1 - "10.2.1.10" # DC2, Shard 1, Replica 2 - "10.3.1.10" # DC3, Shard 1, Replica 3 - "10.1.1.11" # DC1, Shard 2, Replica 1 - "10.2.1.11" # DC2, Shard 2, Replica 2 - "10.3.1.11" # DC3, Shard 2, Replica 3 bash ``` ### Custom Hardware Profiles For specialized workloads, you can create custom hardware profiles: ```bash hardware_profile: "custom" custom_profile: max_server_memory_usage_to_ram_ratio: 0.75 max_server_memory_usage: 0 # Will be calculated based on RAM if set to 0 background_pool_size: 0 # Will be set to CPU count if 0 mark_cache_size: 0 # Will be calculated if 0 uncompressed_cache_size: 0 # Will be calculated if 0 bash ``` ## Conclusion This Ansible automation provides a robust, enterprise-grade solution for deploying ClickHouse clusters with optimal configuration.

The shift from waterfall models to hyper-agile methodologies, coupled with the adoption of microservices architecture, has led to much faster software releases. GitOps has emerged as a powerful approach to enable this rapid deployment cycle, implementing a control-loop pattern often seen in Kubernetes. GitOps offers a more consistent and reliable way to handle infrastructure and deployment. In this blog, we'll explore what GitOps is, why it's gaining popularity among DevOps teams, and take a closer look at popular GitOps tools like Argo CD and Flux CD. ## What is GitOps? GitOps, a combination of 'Git' and 'Operations', is an approach to continuous deployment for cloud-native applications. It uses Git as the single source of truth for declarative infrastructure and applications. This means storing and managing all configuration files that describe how our application should be deployed and run in Git repositories. The core principle of GitOps is treating everything - from application code to infrastructure - as code that can be version-controlled and managed using Git. When changes are needed, instead of manually executing commands or scripts, we make changes to our Git repository. A controller then detects these changes and applies them to our infrastructure. ## Benefits of GitOps - **Consistency and Reliability**: With GitOps, the entire system configuration is stored in version control, providing a clear, auditable record of what should be deployed. - **Faster Recovery and Easier Rollbacks**: In case of issues, rolling back to a previous state is as simple as reverting to a previous commit in the Git history. - **Security**: Git's central point of control allows for strict access controls and enforced code reviews before changes are applied. - **Improved Developer Experience**: Developers can use familiar Git workflows to manage infrastructure, bridging the gap between development and operations. - **Visibility and Traceability**: All changes are recorded in Git, providing a clear record of who changed what and when. - **Increased Automation**: Pushing changes to Git can automatically trigger deployments, reducing manual work and speeding up processes. - **Environment Consistency**: GitOps makes it easier to maintain consistency between different environments (development, staging, production). - **Increased Productivity**: DORA's research suggests teams can ship 30-100 times more changes per day, increasing overall development output by 2-3 times. - **Availability**: With all configuration data in Git, organizations can easily deploy the same Kubernetes platform across different environments, leading to better availability. ## Argo CD vs Flux CD When implementing GitOps for Kubernetes, two popular tools stand out: Argo CD and Flux CD. Both are excellent choices, but they have some differences. Here's a comparison of their features: | Feature | Argo CD | Flux CD | | --- | --- | --- | | Kubernetes-native | Yes | Yes | | UI | Rich web-based UI | Capacitor GUI dashboard | | Multi-tenancy | Built-in | Limited | | Helm support | Native | Via Helm Operator | | Kustomize support | Native | Native | | Sync Mechanism | Automatic sync | Controller-based sync | | Rollback capabilities | Yes | Yes | | Health status | Yes | Relies on Kubernetes status | | Image Updater | Add-on | Built-in | | Advanced Deployment Strategies | Integrated with Argo rollouts | Supported via Flagger | _Comparison between ArgoCD and FluxCD_ In the next section, we will have a look at a quick demo of Argo CD and Flux CD. ## Argo CD In this quick demo of Argo CD we will go through the step-by-step process of Argo CD installation on kubernetes cluster. We will use Argo CD to deploy a sample guestbook application. ### Prerequisites Kubernetes cluster Kubectl installed and configured. Configuration of the git repository ### Argo CD Installation To install Argo CD, we need to have a Kubernetes cluster and kubectl installed and configured. You can check out the guide to install kubectl [here](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl-linux/). #### Create a namespace for Argo CD ```bash kubectl create namespace argocd bash ``` #### Install Argo CD ```bash kubectl apply -n argocd -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/argoproj/argo-cd/stable/manifests/install.yaml bash ``` ### Access the Argo CD api server #### Port-forward the Argo CD server service ```bash kubectl port-forward svc/argocd-server -n argocd 8080:443 bash ``` #### Get the initial password of the admin user to authenticate ```bash kubectl -n argocd get secret argocd-initial-admin-secret -o jsonpath="{.data.password}" | base64 -d bash ``` Use this password to log into the Argo CD UI using username admin at the forwarded port on the localhost, in this example, it is [http://localhost:8080](https://localhost:8080/) ![Argo CD UI](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/argo_screen2_kh1ope.webp) Argo CD UI ### Deploy a sample application - guestbook To deploy an app, we need to create an Application object. The spec will have information such as the source of the Kubernetes manifests to deploy the application, destination Kubernetes cluster, namespace, and sync policy. You can also provide more image updater specs via annotations. In this example, we are not using an image updater. ```yaml apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1 kind: Application metadata: name: guestbook namespace: argocd spec: project: default source: repoURL: https://github.com/argoproj/argocd-example-apps.git targetRevision: HEAD path: guestbook destination: server: https://kubernetes.default.svc namespace: guestbook syncPolicy: automated: prune: true selfHeal: true syncOptions: - CreateNamespace=true yaml ``` #### Create the application ```bash kubectl apply -f application.yaml bash ``` ![Argo CD UI](https://res.cloudinary.com/dfee67kdq/image/upload/q_auto,f_auto/blogs/argo_screen1_kxojmc.webp) Argo CD UI After applying the Argo CD application, the Argo CD controller will automatically monitor and apply the changes in the cluster. You can monitor this from the UI or ```bash kubectl get apps -n argocd bash ``` ## Flux CD In this demo of Flux CD we will understand its installation. We will use flux CD to deploy the ‘fleet-infa’ repository. ### Prerequisites - Kubernetes Cluster - GitHub Personal Access Token. If you need help generating GitHub token check out this [guide](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/managing-your-personal-access-tokens). ### Objectives Bootstrap Flux CD on a Kubernetes Cluster. Deploy a sample application using Flux. Customize the application configuration through Kustomize patches. #### Install the Flux CLI The Flux command-line interface (CLI) is used to bootstrap and interact with Flux CD ```bash curl -s https://fluxcd.io/install.sh | sudo bash bash ``` #### Export Your Credentials Export your GitHub personal access token and username. ```bash export GITHUB_TOKEN= export GITHUB_USER= bash ``` #### Check Your Kubernetes Cluster Ensure your cluster is ready for Flux by running: ```bash flux check --pre bash ``` ### Flux Installation To bootstrap using a GitHub repository, run: ```bash flux bootstrap github \ --owner=$GITHUB_USER \ --repository=fleet-infra \ --branch=main \ --path=./clusters/my-cluster \ --personal bash ``` ### Clone the Git Repository Clone the fleet-infra repository to your local machine: ```bash git clone https://github.com/$GITHUB_USER/fleet-infra cd fleet-infra bash ``` ### Add podinfo Repository to Flux Create a git repository manifest pointing to the podinfo repository’s master branch: ```bash flux create source git podinfo \ --url=https://github.com/stefanprodan/podinfo \ --branch=master \ --interval=1m \ --export > ./clusters/my-cluster/podinfo-source.yaml bash ``` Commit and push the podinfo-source.yaml file to the fleet-infra repository: ```bash git add -A && git commit -m "Add podinfo GitRepository" git push bash ``` ### Deploy podinfo Application Create a Kustomization manifest to deploy the podinfo application: ```bash flux create kustomization podinfo \ --target-namespace=default \ --source=podinfo \ --path="./kustomize" \ --prune=true \ --wait=true \ --interval=30m \ --retry-interval=2m \ --health-check-timeout=3m \ --export > ./clusters/my-cluster/podinfo-kustomization.yaml bash ``` Commit and push the podinfo-kustomization.yaml file to the repository: ```bash git add -A && git commit -m "Add podinfo Kustomization" git push bash ``` ### Watch Flux Sync the Application Use the flux get command to watch the podinfo app: ```bash flux get kustomizations --watch bash ``` ### Verify the Deployment Check if podinfo has been deployed on your cluster: ```bash kubectl -n default get deployments,services bash ``` ## GitOps best practices - Git Workflows: Separate application repositories from git workflow repositories. Also, avoid using long-lived branches from different environments. - Simplify your Kubernetes files: Use tools like Kustomize and Helm to make your Kubernetes files simpler and easier to manage. Use both together to avoid repeating yourself. - Handle secrets carefully: Do not use your passwords or secrets directly in your Git files even if they are encrypted. Instead, use tools that can fetch secrets when needed. - Separate Build and Deployment Processes: Separate your build process from your deployment process. Let your CI system build and test your app and then let GitOps handle the build and put it in a server. ## Ephemeral Environments using GitOps Ephemeral environments, also known as preview environments, are short-lived environments that allow developers to test and preview changes in a production-like environment before merging them into the main branch. These environments are typically created automatically when a pull request is opened and destroyed when the pull request is closed. In the context of Kubernetes, tools like Argo CD and Flux CD can automate the creation and management of ephemeral environments, making it easier to implement this practice in a GitOps workflow. For more information on how to implement preview environments on Kubernetes with Argo CD, check out this guide by [Piotr Minkowski](https://piotrminkowski.com/2023/06/19/preview-environments-on-kubernetes-with-argocd/). ## Conclusion GitOps is a game-changer for managing infrastructure and applications. It boosts consistency, reliability, collaboration, and workflow. Tools like Argo CD and Flux CD exemplify how GitOps streamlines deployment and enhances efficiency. Our comparison shows the strengths and specific use cases of both tools, highlighting how they make GitOps implementation seamless and effective. Ready to enhance your DevOps workflow?

It offers scalability, flexibility, and innovation. However, as organizations increasingly rely on cloud services, managing costs effectively has emerged as a significant challenge. According to [Flexera state of cloud report](https://info.flexera.com/CM-REPORT-State-of-the-Cloud?lead_source=Organic%20Search), organizations waste around 27% of IaaS/PaaS spending and 24% of associated software licensing spend in the cloud. At CloudRaft, we recently partnered with an AI-enabled IT Service Management (ITSM) company facing this exact issue. Through strategic optimizations and best practices, we successfully reduced their Azure cloud costs by over 30%. In this blog post, we'll share the [Azure cost management](https://www.cloudraft.io/cloud-services) strategies and actions we implemented to reduce Azure cloud costs and how you can apply them to optimize your cloud spending. ## How we optimized Microsoft Azure cloud cost? Our team implemented a multi-faceted approach to achieve significant Azure cloud savings for our client. We started with a detailed assessment of various services used in the cloud and identified cost-saving opportunities while balancing the performance and reliability of the system. The stack consists of Azure Kubernetes Services (AKS), [Managed databases](https://www.cloudraft.io/postgresql-consulting) such as PostgreSQL and Redis, Log Analytics, Virtual Machines, and various other Azure managed services. It is the typical stack most SaaS companies have nowadays. So learning from this article might apply to you as well. In case you are looking for a free assessment, don’t hesitate to [contact us](https://www.cloudraft.io/contact-us). Our team of experts will be happy to help you. Now, let's dive into each of these strategies in detail: ### Using the bigger and latest generation machines One of the first changes we made was optimizing the Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) node size for the various pools. We identified there were various pods from AKS running under the `kube-system` namespace that were consuming a lot of resources on the node which had 2 vCPUs and 8 GB RAM. These pods consumed 30 to 40% of the total CPU requests on the nodes. Some of these services are Azure monitor agent, CNI plugin, CSI driver, and so on which are essential for the functioning of the cluster. So, it can’t be removed completely. As these services are on each node, it made sense to go for larger nodes. We also noticed the newer v5 (`D8as_v5`) generation machines were giving a better cost-to-performance ratio. So, we decided to upgrade the nodes to the latest generation machines. This further reduces the overall consumption of compute resources on the cluster giving us the ability to cut down on the total number of CPU and RAM allocated to the cluster. We recommend using the [cost calculator](https://learnk8s.io/kubernetes-instance-calculator) to identify the best instance size for you and depending on your workload profile, select the right machine type. This change alone accounted for a 10-15% reduction in cloud costs due to a reduction in wastage and improved performance. ### Optimizing Azure Log Analytics Cost Azure’s Log Analytics service is an essential part of monitoring and debugging applications, but it can also quickly become one of the costliest aspects of cloud management if not configured properly. Excessive logging in the services, running production instances with debug log level, and having unstructured logging data resulted in driving up Azure log analytics costs. We did a thorough analysis of the number of logs generated by each AKS and then analyzed the log type and log size for each resource group using KQL queries like this: ```text union * | summarize LogSizeBytes = sum(_BilledSize) by Name, ResourceId | extend LogSizeMB = round(LogSizeBytes / 1024.0 / 1024.0, 2) | extend ResourceIdParts = split(ResourceId, '/') | extend ClusterName = tostring(ResourceIdParts[8]) | extend ResourceGroup = tostring(ResourceIdParts[4]) | extend ContainerName = tostring(ResourceIdParts[10]) | project Name, ClusterName, ResourceGroup, ContainerName, LogSizeMB, ResourceId | order by LogSizeMB desc text ``` We then optimized logs for clusters that were generating a high number of logs. This led to saving on storage and log analytics fees. Also, switching to structured logs made data easier to process and analyze, lowering overall costs. Our [observability](https://www.cloudraft.io/observability-consulting) service utilize open source and reduce the cost significantly. ### Reservations for VMs and Databases [Azure Reservations](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cost-management-billing/reservations/save-compute-costs-reservations) help save money by committing to one-year or three-year plans for multiple products. Committing allows you to get a discount on the resources you use. Reservations can significantly reduce your resource costs by up to 72% from pay-as-you-go prices. Reservations provide a billing discount and don't affect the runtime state of your resources. After you purchase a reservation, the discount automatically applies to matching resources. We implemented reservations for all VM’s including [Kubernetes](https://www.cloudraft.io/kubernetes-consulting) and [PostgreSQL](https://www.cloudraft.io/postgresql-consulting) instances. By reserving resources for VMs and databases with consistent usage, we can have the advantage of discounted pricing and Azure VM cost optimization. ### Spot Node Pool for Kubernetes Azure’s Spot Virtual Machines are VMs that can be purchased at a much lower price in exchange for the risk that they might be reclaimed when Azure needs the capacity back. Spot VMs in Azure are perfect for non-critical workloads that can be interrupted, offering significant cost savings. We implemented spot node pools for the Kubernetes clusters. Shifting non-essential workloads to a spot node pool, reduced the cost of compute resources without impacting key operations. This provided flexibility to run cost-sensitive workloads at a lower rate. We segmented the workload as per our quality requirements and accordingly scheduled it on spot pool. ### Migrating from Elasticsearch to Loki Our client was using Elasticsearch for log monitoring. It was an overkill for the company's log aggregation needs, consuming too many resources. It was making things more expensive and less efficient. By switching to Loki, which is designed to handle logs more efficiently, we were able to solve these issues. Loki uses a simpler approach by labelling logs instead of doing complex searches, which means it needs less memory and CPU. It also saves space, reducing the storage costs that were high with Elasticsearch. This change led to lower costs while still meeting the company's needs for managing logs. ### Garbage Collection and Cleanups Unused or idle cloud resources, such as VMs and unattached disks, can pile up and lead to unnecessary expenses. Regular cleanups are needed to remove stale resources. In order to figure out unused resources we checked for unused resources per resource group. We created a list of unused resources like VM’s , IP addresses, disks etc and removed them. We also identified various features such as SFTP for storage account, managed Grafana instances and Prometheus instances for Kubernetes were not used but it was kept enabled adding up to the cost. This proactive approach reduced unnecessary storage and compute costs. While this manual approach is effective, it can be further enhanced through automation. Tools like [Cloud Custodian](https://cloudcustodian.io/) enable the creation of policies that automatically identify, tag, and even remove unused resources based on predefined criteria. ### Lifecycle Policies for Storage Compliance data, while important, was not accessed frequently and didn’t need to be stored in expensive storage tiers. Data could be automatically moved to cheaper storage tiers as it aged. We added lifecycle policies for resources like compliance buckets. Automated lifecycle policies moved older, less-accessed data from hot to cold or archive storage, reducing storage expenses while maintaining compliance. For example, newly generated data might be stored in hot or premium storage for quick access. But as this data ages and is accessed less frequently, the lifecycle policy automatically shifts it to cheaper storage tiers, such as cool or archive storage. ### Rightsizing Virtual Machines and Databases Often we over-provision the compute to reduce the risk of performance issues and then don’t get opportunities to right-size them. In our audit we discovered various VMs and databases that were over-provisioned, using more resources than necessary. We scaled down the VMs to more appropriate sizes and resized databases to reflect the load they were handling. Right-sizing the VMs and databases eliminated unnecessary resource usage, reducing cloud expenses. We maintained the performance levels while cutting unnecessary costs. There are more opportunities if we look inside the databases and fine-tune the queries but let’s keep that for another day. ## Cloud cost saving best practices In addition to the changes we made, we established a set of cloud cost saving best practices to ensure we continue to operate cost-efficiently in the future. - **Setup Monitoring (Cost Alerts) and Budgets**: Azure offers tools to set budgets and create cost alerts. By monitoring spending more closely, we were able to identify wasteful areas and act on them before costs spiralled out of control. Set up daily, weekly, and monthly budget alerts. Use [Azure Advisor](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/products/advisor) for cost management suggestions. - **Use Reservations wherever possible**: As mentioned earlier, reservations for VMs and databases provide significant savings. Always assess whether your workloads can benefit from reserved instances. Combine Azure reservation with [Azure Hybrid Benefit](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/hybrid-benefit/) for maximum savings. - **Right-size Kubernetes Nodes**: Always use appropriately sized nodes for your AKS clusters. Running nodes that are too large wastes resources, while nodes that are too small can result in inefficiencies due to throttling and memory contention. Implement node auto-scaling to match demand fluctuations. - **Optimize logging and diagnostics**: Not every log or diagnostic event is necessary. Be selective with what you collect, as the cost of observability can quickly add up. Utilise [Azure Monitor Agent (AMA)](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/agents/azure-monitor-agent-overview) for more granular control over data collection. - **Implement auto-scaling**: Use [Azure Autoscale](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/autoscale/autoscale-overview) for VMs, App Service plans, and other supported services. Design scaling rules based on performance metrics and time-based patterns. - **Optimize storage usage**: Implement [Azure Blob storage lifecycle policies](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/lifecycle-management-policy-configure?tabs=azure-portal). This allows you to automatically manage the lifecycle of your blob compliance. ## Conclusion By implementing these strategies, we were able to achieve a 30% reduction in Azure cloud costs for our client. This not only resulted in significant savings but also improved overall system performance and efficiency. Remember, cloud cost optimization is not a one-time effort but an ongoing process. By continuously monitoring, analyzing, and adjusting your cloud usage, you can ensure that you're getting the most value from your cloud investments while keeping costs under control. There are tools and SaaS services to manage the costs but these services are unable to look into architectural choices and not sufficiently intelligent to give a very customized recommendation for your specific needs. _This article is jointly written by Unnati Mishra and Ritesh Sonawane._ [Engage us for free assessment](https://www.cloudraft.io/contact-us).
