+With 25+ years in tech and business innovation, these days at Anant, I lead a digital transformation practice using the convergence of Data, NoCode, and AI. My expertise spans all software, platform, and infrastructure layers of the cloud. In the new “age of knowledge and intelligence” , I’ve been lucky to work with integrating LLM frameworks like LangChain, LlamaIndex, Semantic Kernel, and Haystack with Cassandra / Cassandra Vector. I’ve consulted, lead, and trained teams at major clients like McDonald’s, Cisco, Intuit, UBS, UKG, and USPS that needed help scaling their digital customer experience and data & analytics platforms.
