Build and Deploy Retrieval Augmented Generative Pipelines with Haystack

Retrieval Augmented Generative pipelines (RAG) are one of the most effective techniques to leveraging LLMs for production.

In this talk, Tuana Celik will walk through how you can build and customize your own RAG pipelines with Haystack, the open-source LLM framework by deepset. She will demonstrate the Haystack pipeline structure, which is built on the principle of composability, and how you may shape custom pipelines to:

  • Make use of the vector databases of your choice
  • Shape out how your data will interact with LLMs
  • Use the latest retrieval techniques to provide LLMs with the relevant context  and more.

Following that, Thomas will discuss the challenges of deploying such pipelines to production.

  • You will learn how we deploy Haystack pipelines on deepset Cloud. In particular we’ll address:
  • Hosting a pipeline
  • Connecting your pipeline to LLMs hosted on AWS SageMaker
  • What it actually means to run a RAG pipeline end-to-end covering prototyping, evaluation, inference, prompt engineering, observability and more

Rethinking SaaS Entitlement Management with Feature Flags

Monday Oct 2 / 10:35AM PDT

Feature flags are typically associated with continuous delivery feature access management. They allow you to temporarily limit production access to a new feature while it's being developed and tested, then open access for your users once it's ready.

Building Organizational Resilience by Creating Generative Organizations

Monday Oct 2 / 05:05PM PDT

2004, Professor Ron Westrum published his influential paper on how organizations process information. In that paper, Prof. Westrum described three archetypes of organizations, along with characteristics of how they process information. They are pathological, bureaucratic, and generative.
