    How AI is redefining the Application Architecture Design process

    December 16, 2025 - By Praveen Nair

    The modern software architect is often bottlenecked not by a lack of knowledge, but by the sheer volume of context they must maintain. Scalability constraints, compliance guardrails, cloud service limits, and legacy entanglements create a cognitive burden that makes pure design difficult.

    Article: Platform Engineering 2.0: The Rise of AI-Native DevOps

    December 11, 2025 - By Praveen Nair

    Read my latest article on agentic AI adoption in Platform Engineering on Medium. https://ninethsense1.medium.com/platform-engineering-2-0-the-rise-of-ai-native-devops-5b6c9510decc?sk=eadef43fd8cf604c21105ff055d9aead We spent years asking developers to care about infrastructure, aka follow the DevOps culture. AI-Native Platform Engineering now effectively says, “Actually, forget it. The AI handles the infrastructure now! You just focus on code”

    Hosting a SLM Qwen 2.5 on Raspberry Pi 2

    December 8, 2025 - By Praveen Nair

    This article is a write up of my experience on hosting Qwen 2.5 the 0.5B model in Raspberry Pi 2 using Llama.cpp. Qwen 2.5 is one of the small SLM with 0.5B parameters so a small development board like Raspberry Pi can hold it. RPi 2 Model B comes with 900Mhz speed and only 1GB of memory. But to be honest, setting up the project might take 1-2 hours, and the prompt execution is only some 1-2 tokens per second. So you need to be patient. Let us begin! Step 0: Pick up the Raspberry Pi 2 from the attic.…

    Microsoft Fara-8B learning experience

    December 7, 2025 - By Praveen Nair

    Over the weekend, I was trying do a learning project using Microsoft’s latest Microsoft Fara-7B model, which is a “Computer Use Agent”. Microsoft Fara-7B is a small, efficient, open-weight AI model (with 7 billion parameters) designed to act as a Computer Use Agent (CUA), allowing it to perform tasks on a computer by visually understanding the screen (aka screenshots) and using mouse/keyboard actions (clicks, typing, scrolling) to automate web tasks like booking travel, shopping, or filling forms, offering speed, privacy (runs locally on devices), and lower cost compared to larger models. Currently the model is still in experimental mode, and…

    Strategy for adding AI to the existing application

    December 4, 2025 - By Praveen Nair

    How should a technical leader respond when a customer asks to add AI to an existing application? The answer requires structure and clear thinking. 1. First, clarify the Actual ProblemNever assume that AI is the right solution. I would start by understanding the business objective. Many requests framed as AI needs turn out to be workflow issues, reporting gaps, or rule based automation opportunities. Accurate problem definition prevents unnecessary complexity. 2. Evaluate Data/App ReadinessAI depends completely on data quality. Assess what data exists, how clean it is, and whether privacy or compliance concerns limit its use. If data foundations are…
