As a Solution Architect, my job is to filter noise. Here is my Q1 2026 Tech Radar—technologies I am actively implementing for revenue-critical systems.

Let's first look into the 4 pillars of the Radar:

• Hold
• Assess
• Trial
• Adopt

For simplification i will refer Assess and Trial to Eval

🟢 Adopt: Multi-Agent Orchestration​

Standard RAG is becoming a commodity. If you have not explored just try NotebookLM .The real value is now in Agentic Workflows where LLMs have tool-use capabilities to self-correct data retrieval. I wont be surprised if there is compnay out there building just "tools"

🟡 Eval: Small Language Models (SLMs)​

Models like Phi-4 or Llama-3-Tiny are proving that "smaller is faster" for specific task-oriented logic. If you are trying to solve just one domain use case , do you really need a ferrari ?

🔴 Hold: Traditional Chatbots​

If your AI strategy is just a wrapper around a prompt, you are building technical debt. The shift is toward context-aware ecosystems.
