# Introduction TurboQuant is a new algorithmic toolkit recently released by Google. It focuses on applying advanced quantization and compression to large language models (LLMs) and vector search engines — essential components of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems — to significantly boost their efficiency.

How does it achieve this, and does it truly live up to the excitement? This article explores these questions through an overview and a hands-on example of its application. # TurboQuant in a Nutshell While…

Published on May 15, 2026 by Michael Uzukwu, kgateway and agentgateway Contributor CNCF projects featured in this post Every gateway comes with a set of built-in policies. Authentication. Rate limiting. Request routing. Prompt guards. These handle most scenarios. But what about the ones they don’t address? What if you need to add a custom header based on a database lookup? What if you need to transform a request body in a way no existing filter supports? What if your business has unique logic that no off-the-shelf gateway can anticipate? You build your own extension.

A study by Flare researchers examining 128 posts tied to the REMUS criminal network between February 12 and May 8, 2026, offers a unique glimpse into how the group markets,…

model fails not because the algorithm is weak, but because the variables were not prepared in a way the model can properly understand? In credit risk modeling, we often focus on model choice, performance metrics, feature selection, or validation. But before estimating any coefficient, another question deserves attention: how should each variable enter the model? A raw variable is not always the best representation of risk. A continuous variable may have a non-linear relationship with default. A categorical variable may contain too many modalities. Some variables may include outliers, missing values, unstable distributions, or categories with very few observations. If…
