Szymon Dudycz, AI Developer held a workshop at the Intel AI DevSummit, on February 26, 2025 on how to Build RAG Apps in YAML.

The session addresses accuracy limitations of traditional vector-indexing RAG for large, dynamic private data. It will explore how to build quality RAG applications for end users with easy-to-use RAG templates that can be deployed easily via docker, with the index of your choice. You’ll learn to optimize RAG for the best balance of cost, accuracy, and latency. We’ll showcase a quick, secure RAG service setup (CPU+GPU or CPU) with pre-built YAML templates and automatic data updates, improving document understanding and performance. You will see how it works in practice, with real-world querying of sales and marketing documents and slide decks.
