AI Production Troubleshooting Bible (Paperback)

Paperback. The Complete Field Reference for Diagnosing and Resolving Production AI, MLOps, and LLM FailuresArtificial Intelligence doesn't fail in development-it fails in production.Models that perform exceptionally well during experimentation can suddenly experience latency spikes, model drift, GPU failures, infrastructure outages, deployment issues, data pipeline breakdowns, security incidents, soaring inference costs, and unpredictable behavior once deployed at scale. This book is designed to help engineers diagnose, troubleshoot, and resolve those production failures quickly and systematically.AI Production Troubleshooting Bible 2026 is a comprehensive, practitioner-focused reference covering the complete lifecycle of production AI systems. Rather than focusing on theory, it provides practical diagnostics, real-world failure scenarios, architecture guidance, operational best practices, troubleshooting workflows, and production-ready solutions used across modern AI platforms.Whether you're managing machine learning models, LLM applications, agentic AI systems, or enterprise AI infrastructure, this reference serves as a reliable guide for identifying root causes, minimizing downtime, improving reliability, and building resilient AI systems.Inside You'll Learn- Cloud infrastructure troubleshooting across AWS, Azure, GCP, and multi-cloud environments- GPU, CUDA, Kubernetes, Docker, and container orchestration failures- Model serving and inference issues using Triton, vLLM, TorchServe, Ray Serve, and TensorFlow Serving- Data pipeline failures involving Kafka, Airflow, Spark, Feature Stores, and distributed processing- Production MLOps workflows including experiment tracking, model registries, deployment pipelines, and CI/CD- API, microservices, and distributed system troubleshooting- AI observability using Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, and production monitoring practices- Security, compliance, governance, and operational risk management- Model drift detection, evaluation strategies, and production validation- Agentic AI production challenges and orchestration failures- Prompt engineering and context engineering for production LLM applications- Fine-tuning, LoRA deployment, inference optimization, and AI FinOps- Disaster recovery, business continuity, rollback strategies, and incident response runbooksThroughout the book you'll find: Production troubleshooting playbooksArchitecture diagramsReal-world incident case studiesProduction tips and critical warningsStep-by-step diagnostic workflowsQuick-reference chapter summariesChecklists and operational best practicesCommands, code examples, and deployment guidanceWho This Book Is ForAI EngineersMachine Learning EngineersMLOps EngineersLLMOps EngineersPlatform EngineersData EngineersSite Reliability Engineers (SREs)DevOps EngineersCloud ArchitectsSoftware Engineers building AI systemsTechnical LeadsAI ArchitectsEngineering ManagersGraduate students and researchers working with production AIWhether you're deploying your first production model or managing enterprise-scale AI infrastructure, this book provides the practical knowledge needed to diagnose failures faster, improve reliability, reduce operational risk, and keep AI systems running efficiently in real-world environments.Part of the AI/ML Technical Reference Series, this volume is designed as a long-term desk reference that engineers can return to whenever production issues arise. It emphasizes practical troubleshooting over theory, helping you move from identifying Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
