Semantic caching promises to make AI systems faster and cheaper by reducing duplicate calls to large language models (LLMs). But what happens when it doesn’t work as expected? We built a test environment to find out. Through a caching system, we evaluated how semantically similar queries would behave. When the cache worked, response times were fast. When it didn’t, things got expensive. In fact, a single semantic cache miss increased latency by more than 2.5x.

Kubernetes has revolutionized application deployment and management. However, manually adjusting cluster sizes to meet fluctuating workloads, without constantly under- or over-provisioning resources, quickly drains platform teams’ time and energy. While traditional cloud provider autoscaling tools are functional, they often fall short when it comes to truly dynamic, Kubernetes-aware scaling, especially in a world with diverse infrastructure.

Debugging a production issue with Cursor? Your workflow probably looks like this: Alt-Tab to Sentry, copy error details, switch back to your IDE, paste into Cursor.
