    Modern AIOps:
What It Takes to Build Reliable AI Products

    Watch this episode as a video on Spotify! In this episode of the MongoDB Podcast, host Jesse Hall sits down with Karthik Kalyanamaran, Co-Founder and CTO of Langtrace AI, to discuss how engineering teams are building reliable AI products. Moving from traditional, deterministic software engineering to the non-deterministic world of Large Language Models requires an entirely new approach to debugging, testing, and monitoring. Karthik shares his journey from scaling observability infrastructure at Coinbase to creating Langtrace AI, an open-source LLM application observability platform built on OpenTelemetry standards. We dive deep into what a modern AIOps stack looks like and how developers can eliminate the guesswork of LLM hallucinations, prompt adjustments, and vector database performance. Key topics discussed in this episode: The Shift to Non-Deterministic Software: Why traditional unit tests fail when building with LLMs, and how to adapt your development and production lifecycle. The Core Elements of AIOps: A breakdown of modern AI deployment, including runtime tracing, prompt engineering, and context optimization. Optimizing Vector Databases: How Langtrace integrates with MongoDB Atlas Vector Search to track aggregate pipelines, embedding queries, and semantic retrieval accuracy. Anonymization and Security: Navigating SOC 2 Type 2 compliance and tracing system performance without exposing sensitive customer data. The HTML Era of AI: Why starting with primitive, native constructs directly on top of models often yields better design insights than over-relying on complex frameworks. Introducing Hey Zest: A sneak peek into Langtrace closed beta agent platform that allows developers to deploy B2B AI bots natively inside Slack.

    Why Python Devs Are Ditching Raw Drivers for Beanie

    Watch this episode in video format on Spotify! If you're building Python applications on MongoDB and still writing raw queries by hand, you're leaving a lot of developer productivity on the table. Beanie, the async-first ODM built on Pydantic, was created to fix exactly that — and this episode goes deep on how and why it works. You'll learn how Beanie maps Python objects to MongoDB documents without sacrificing atomicity or performance, why async-first design matters for modern Python stacks, how schema migrations actually work in a document database, and what the deprecation of Motor means for your existing codebase. The episode also covers Beanie's integration with FastAPI, how it handles indexes and aggregation pipelines under the hood, and what's coming in the next phase of the library. Ramon, the creator of Beanie and a senior software engineer at Microsoft, built this library five years ago to fill a gap nobody else had addressed. He's joined by Shubham, MongoDB's product manager for Python client libraries, for a live demo and Q&A.

    From 7 Days to 2 Minutes: Automating Workflows with Knowledge Graphs

    Are you still relying on OCR for your enterprise AI? You're losing critical context. In this episode, Anaiya Raisinghani (Sr. Tech. Evangelist, AI Startups & Ventures at MongoDB) sits down with Adityavardhan Agrawal, Co-Founder and CEO of Morphik. They dive deep into how Morphik is helping developers and enterprises understand complex, unstructured data and automate high-leverage workflows. Adi breaks down the limitations of standard RAG pipelines and reveals why they turned to Vision Language Models (VLMs) to process complex documents like architectural floorplans. What you’ll learn in this episode: The OCR Trap: Why text extraction is inherently lossy for complex documents and how VLMs generate better embeddings. The RAG Misconception: Why getting high-quality context requires much more than just plain vector search.

    Don't Build Your Own AI (Unless You Have To)

    Are you trying to figure out if your team should build an AI model from scratch or integrate an off-the-shelf solution? You aren’t alone. In this episode of the MongoDB Podcast, Shane McAlister sits down with Akshaya Murthy, Director of AI Transformation at Zendesk, to decode the maze of building enterprise AI products. They dive into why integrating is often the winning move for speed-to-market, the hidden costs of custom models, and why bad data will break even the most perfect transformer model. What you’ll learn in this episode: The Build vs. Buy Calculus: Why lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and rapid deployment favor integration for most enterprises. Spotting "AI Washing": How to avoid vendor buzzword salads and focus on actual problem-solving and ROI.
