Red Hat ☛ Build a container image for a Quarkus project using Buildpacks
This post explains how to use the Quarkus Container Image Buildpack extension to build container images without a Dockerfile, simplifying your CI/CD process.
This is part of a series on building your applications with Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) Buildpacks. Catch up on the previous articles here:

Red Hat Official ☛ Production AI success: From gen AI promise to business impact [Ed: Scams and pure nonsense promoted by Red Hat]
Many organizations initiate gen AI projects without a defined strategy or roadmap. This can lead to fragmented efforts that make it difficult to demonstrate a return on investment (ROI). A well-articulated strategy is crucial for successful adoption. You may also find your organization struggling to align AI solutions with specific, impactful business use cases. Demonstrating clear business value can often be a challenge.

Red Hat ☛ Building trustworthy AI: A developer's guide to production-ready systems [Ed: Paradox of chatbots and other nonsense, conflating them with "trust"; Red Hat jumping the shark]
As developers, our primary concerns with Hey Hi (AI) have often focused on performance, latency, and model accuracy. However, the landscape is maturing.

Red Hat ☛ How I built an agentic application for Docling with MCP [Ed: redhat.com with silly buzzwords, as usual]
The Hey Hi (AI) world is full of acronyms, and MCP might just be my new favorite. Released by Anthropic in November 2024, Model Context Protocol (MCP) provides a shared, open standard for large language models (LLMs) to communicate with arbitrary functions exposed as "tools." While tool calling and agentic applications are nothing new, MCP launched with simplistic portability and pre-built integrations from major consumer products like Slack and Surveillance Giant Google Calendar, driving a wave of quick adoption.

Red Hat ☛ Your agent, your rules: A deep dive into the Responses API with Llama Stack [Ed: Like "Metaverse" and "Second Life" (IBM), this is more hype and Red Hat believes it can benefit from it before people get bored and move on]
The Proprietary Chaffbot Company Responses API provides substantial value for developers building Hey Hi (AI) applications. With many earlier inference APIs, creating agents that could use tools involved a clunky, multi-step process. Client applications had to orchestrate each part of the process: call the model with a list of possible tools, get the plan for tool execution from the model, execute the tools, send the results of the tool execution back to the model, and repeat.

Red Hat Official ☛ Optimizing application architectures for AI: From monoliths to intelligent agents - Part 1 [Ed: Red Hat participates in the Ponzi scheme or valuation bubble; IBM is a bottomless pit.]
One was that in order to talk about what type of architectures are required to develop and scale AI applications, including agents and agentic AI, we needed to provide some context about the evolution of architectures. This was important because we believe that there is no need to throw everything out and start afresh for AI apps. Rather, our premise was that you will succeed by thinking about this as an evolution of your existing application investments.
