Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

Data processing has three distinct stages: an extract stage where data is extracted from a store like a database, a load stage where the data is loaded into an analytic database or system, and a transform stage where data is modified to a form suitable for analysis. Combined, these three stages are often referred to as ELT (extract, load, transform).
