Chunking

RAG Systems Engineering: The Structure-Aware Data Pipeline

Building production RAG systems is fundamentally an ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) challenge. We explore why documents must be treated as hierarchical data structures, not string soup. Discover structure-aware splitting, metadata injection, and multi-resolution indexing strategies that transform data quality and eliminate hallucinations.

Building RAG: All things retrieval

Retrieval is the backbone of RAG. We explore the critical steps often missed by developers: proper chunking strategies, the ‘Librarian’ analogy for vector vs. keyword search, and solving the math problem of Hybrid Search using Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF).
