- About the Authors
Artificial intelligence is reshaping modern industries, but building scalable and reliable AI systems requires more than models, rather it needs strong platforms, automation, and data-driven insights. This book addresses that critical gap by exploring the AI ecosystem through foundational architecture and infrastructure automation.
This book provides an in-depth knowledge of designing and building operating platforms that supportAI initiatives, covering data pipelines, model lifecycle management, infrastructure engineering, and operational best practices. Each chapter integrates core technical concepts and introduces generative AI, LLMs, and agentic protocols, backed by real-world case studies in healthcare and content moderation, supporting secure and cost-aware AI systems.
After reading this book, readers will gain the knowledge and foundational skills to design and build AI platforms that optimize development workflows and embrace automation. This expertise prepares the readers to lead AI-driven initiatives and deliver measurable business impact in any modern organization.
