Hybrid Search
Hybrid Search enhances information retrieval by combining Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with a vector database, enabling AI-powered, context-aware search. It minimizes manual effort, accelerates discovery, and delivers structured, accurate responses, making it ideal for knowledge management and enterprise search.
Key Features
- RAG Implementation – Uses Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to retrieve relevant data and generate concise, AI-driven responses.
- Vector Database – Stores and manages vector embeddings for efficient and accurate retrieval of similar items.
- Structured Responses – Organizes search outputs into clear formats like tables, bullet points, or sections for better readability.
- Hybrid Search Node – Enables efficient lookups across structured and unstructured data.
- API Integration – Allows seamless interaction with other tools and systems.
- Fast Query Execution – Reduces search time by optimizing AI-powered retrieval techniques.
- Scalability – Designed for quick deployment across various enterprise use cases.
- Enhanced Knowledge Management – Streamlines data organization and minimizes manual search efforts.
Architecture
Hybrid Search combines AI-powered retrieval techniques to minimize manual effort, accelerate information discovery, and generate actionable insights. By implementing Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) alongside a vector database, this approach ensures that responses are contextually relevant, structured, and efficiently retrieved.
With Hybrid Search, organizations can streamline knowledge management, reducing search times while improving the accuracy of AI-driven responses.
The architecture follows a structured workflow. First, a flow is created to implement RAG using chunking and an index node, ensuring data is properly stored in a vector database.
Next, an API Node is set as the trigger in a second flow, where a Hybrid Search Node is used to perform efficient lookups across the database.
Finally, the API Response Node is customised to refine and structure the output. This setup enables rapid deployment and ensures quick, high-quality responses for a variety of use cases.
