Scaling RAG to Production: Why 10 Million Documents Is a Different Sport
Article summary
Quick briefing — cleaned from the original RSS feed
Building a RAG chatbot for 1,000 clean PDFs takes an afternoon: one retriever, one vector store, about 20 lines of LangChain glue. I know, because I built and deployed one ( mahesh-blue.vercel.app ) - document ingestion, chunking, embeddings, semantic search over FAISS/Chroma, guardrails, prompt versioning, LangSmith monitoring. But while working on my own system and studying how large-scale production RAG architectures are designed, I kept running into the same realization: almost everything…
