Building a Production LLM Application

You have built prompts, embeddings, RAG pipelines, function calling, caching layers, and guardrails. Separately. In isolation. Like practicing guitar scales without ever playing a song. This lesson is the song. You will wire every component from Lessons 01-12 into a single production-ready service. Not a toy. Not a demo. A system that handles real traffic, fails gracefully, streams tokens, tracks costs, and survives its first 10,000 users.
