Welcome to the DDP Labs journal

This is the first post on our Journal - short essays on engineering choices, tools we reach for, and what “production-ready” actually means for AI and full-stack work.

What to expect

• Build logs and lessons from client projects (sanitized).
• Comparisons we actually use - RAG vs fine-tuning, pgvector vs hosted vector DBs, edge vs Node - with tradeoffs, not hype.
• Occasional workflow notes: CI, observability, and keeping latency predictable.
