5 Architectures for Web Personalization

Personalization is a data-delivery problem. Every architectural choice reduces to two distances: compute to user, and compute to fresh data. This piece maps five real architectures against both axes, scored on a concrete retailer workload where stale or slow data breaks the business.

5x Faster HNSW Vector Search with int8 Quantization

Harper 5.1 adds int8 quantization, dropping index size by roughly 3x, search throughput improves roughly 5x, and p99 latency falls from ~9s to ~0.5s under load. The tradeoff is approximately 1% recall degradation before reranking.
