The LLMOps Playbook: Evidence-Based Patterns from 600+ Implementations

Explore a data-driven analysis of production GenAI systems in this 30-minute talk from MLOps World by Alex Strick van Linschoten, Machine Learning Engineer at ZenML. Drawing from ZenML's LLMOps Database of over 600 real-world implementations, discover evidence-based patterns that separate successful production deployments from mere demos. Learn why workflow architectures consistently outperform agent-based systems, how dual-cycle development methodologies drive success, and why robust evaluation frameworks are essential for managing non-deterministic LLM behavior. Gain practical, battle-tested strategies for RAG systems and GenAI workflow orchestration that can be immediately applied to your own projects. The presentation cuts through industry hype to deliver actionable insights based on extensive real-world implementation data.
