How do you test a GenAI application that's constantly changing? In this episode, Shane talks to Leonard Tang, co-founder of Haize Labs, about why traditional testing fails for LLMs and how to adopt a new evaluation strategy. Leonard introduces "fuzzing"—a powerful technique for discovering edge cases, improving reliability, and building AI you can actually trust. He also gives a live demo of the Haize Labs platform, so be sure to watch the video version on YouTube or Spotify to see it in action.

(Episode Summary)Tired of tangled data spread across multiple clouds, on-premise systems, and the edge? In this episode, MongoDB's Shane McAllister sits down with Peter Ngai, Principal Architect at SnapLogic, to explore the future of data integration and management in today's complex tech landscape.

Dive into the challenges and solutions surrounding modern data architecture, including:

 * Navigating the complexities of multi-cloud and hybrid cloud environments.
 * The secrets to building flexible, resilient data ecosystems that avoid vendor lock-in.
 * Strategies for seamless data integration and connecting disparate applications using low-code/no-code platforms like SnapLogic.
 * Meeting critical data compliance, security, and sovereignty demands (think GDPR, HIPAA, etc.).
 * How AI is revolutionizing data automation and providing faster access to insights (featuring SnapLogic's Agent Creator).
 * The powerful synergy between SnapLogic and MongoDB, leveraging MongoDB both internally and for customer integrations.
 * Real-world applications, from IoT data processing to simplifying enterprise workflows.

Whether you're an IT leader, data engineer, business analyst, or simply curious about cloud strategy, iPaaS solutions, AI in business, or simplifying your data stack, Peter offers invaluable insights into making data connectivity a driver, not a barrier, for innovation.
