Definition
Short for 'Large Language Model Operations' — a software platform that organisations use to build, deploy, monitor, and manage AI-powered applications and agents in production. Just as 'DevOps' platforms manage software development pipelines, LLMOps platforms (such as Dify, Langflow, or ToolJet) manage the full lifecycle of AI products, including connecting models to data, tools, and users.
Why it matters
LLMOps platforms sit at the centre of an organisation's entire AI estate, connecting models to sensitive databases, APIs, and user data — making them high-value targets. Multiple critical vulnerabilities were simultaneously discovered across the most widely deployed LLMOps platforms in a single reporting window.
