This article details the design and implementation of a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline, emphasizing the use of diagrams to visualize its components and identify potential bottlenecks. It outlines a step-by-step process for building such a pipeline, starting with a minimal FastAPI endpoint and progressively adding features like asynchronous ingestion, embedding models, vector storage, retrieval, and generation. The author also touches upon visualization tools like Mermaid and PlantUML, and discusses scaling and monitoring practices for production environments. AI
