In Part 1 of this post, we covered how Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) can be used to enhance responses in generative AI applications by combining domain-specific information with a foundation model (FM). However, we stayed focused on the semantic search aspect of the solution, assuming that our vector store was already built and fully populated. In this post, we explore how to generate vector embeddings on Wikipedia data stored in a SQL Server database hosted on Amazon RDS. We also use Amazon Bedrock to invoke the appropriate FM APIs and an Amazon SageMaker Jupyter Notebook to help us orchestrate the overall process.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) has reached a turning point, capturing everyone’s imaginations. Integrating generative capabilities into customer-facing services and solutions has become critical. Current generative AI offerings are the culmination of a gradual evolution from machine learning and deep learning models. The leap from deep learning to generative AI is enabled by foundation models. Amazon […]
