Prompt caching as an operating decision
Use caching where repeated prompt prefixes, privacy controls, freshness, invalidation, and provider behavior make reuse safe and measurable.
Read article
Production RAG architecture with governed enterprise context
Design retrieval around source authority, chunking, access control, evaluation, provenance, freshness, and failure behavior rather than a vector database alone.
Read article
API governance patterns for SAP landscapes

Read article
SAP middleware and API product control planes serve different jobs
Distinguish transport and orchestration from the ownership, versioning, policy, discovery, and operation of consumer-facing API products.
