  1. Automating Data Ingestion with a RAG Flywheel

    Zalando replaced manual schema mapping for diverse supplier data with an LLM-powered Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) flywheel. The system combines Amazon Titan embeddings stored in PostgreSQL via pgvector with tool-constrained generative models running at zero temperature. Every LLM suggestion passes through strict API validation checks before being reviewed by operations specialists, creating a continuous learning loop that improves future predictions.

  2. How we make AI coding more cost efficient without sacrificing task quality

    GitHub optimized GitHub Copilot to improve cost efficiency without sacrificing task quality by evaluating changes across the entire agentic workflow. The team implemented four targeted adjustments including selective output compression, removing unused line-number formatting, shortening prompts via meta-prompting with behavioral tests, and delivering background work completions directly. These modifications reduced token usage and model inference costs globally without causing task-success regressions.
