RAG Frameworks in 2026: LangChain, LangGraph vs LlamaIndex
We benchmarked 5 RAG frameworks: LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, Haystack, and DSPy. We build the same agentic RAG workflow with standardized components: identical models (GPT-4.1-mini), embeddings (BGE-small), retriever (Qdrant), and tools (Tavily web search). This isolates each framework’s true overhead and token efficiency.
Best 10 Serverless GPU Clouds & 14 Cost-Effective GPUs
Serverless GPU can provide easy-to-scale computing services for AI workloads. However, their costs can be substantial for large-scale projects. Navigate to sections based on your needs: Serverless GPU price per throughput Serverless GPU providers offer different performance levels and pricing for AI workloads.
LLM Inference Engines: vLLM vs LMDeploy vs SGLang ['26]
We benchmarked 3 leading LLM inference engines on NVIDIA H100: vLLM, LMDeploy, and SGLang. Each engine processed identical workloads: 1,000 ShareGPT prompts using Llama 3.1 8B-Instruct to isolate the true performance impact of their architectural choices and optimization strategies.
Compare Large Vision Models: GPT-4o vs YOLOv8n [2026]
Large vision models (LVMs) can automate and improve visual tasks such as defect detection, medical diagnosis, and environmental monitoring. We benchmarked three object detection models: YOLOv8n, DETR, and GPT-4o Vision, across 1,000 images each, measuring metrics such as mAP@0.5, inference speed, FLOPs, and parameter count.
Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) vs LLMs in 2026
We evaluated the performance of Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) in financial reasoning tasks using a carefully selected dataset. By analyzing a subset of high-quality financial samples, we assess the models’ capabilities in processing and reasoning with multimodal data in the financial domain. The methodology section provides detailed insights into the dataset and evaluation framework employed.
Centralizing AI Tool Access with the MCP Gateway in 2026
Source: Jahgirdar, Manoj In this article, I’ll walk through the evolution of AI tool integration, explain what the Model Context Protocol (MCP) is, and show why MCP alone isn’t production-ready. Then we’ll explore real-world gateway implementations between AI agents and external tools.
10+ Large Language Model Examples & Benchmark in 2026
