Production-grade Text-to-SQL pipelines need robust context before LLM generation

Building a production-ready text-to-SQL system requires more than just an LLM generating SQL from a user's question. The core challenge lies in constructing the necessary context before SQL generation, addressing complexities like ambiguous definitions, undocumented joins, and inconsistent data. A robust pipeline involves multiple stages, including intent parsing, semantic mapping to business definitions, metadata retrieval, relationship discovery, join path selection, SQL generation, validation, execution, and explanation, ensuring accuracy and reliability beyond simple query execution.
