On this instance, we’re going to construct and deploy a easy RAG software that retrieves related chunks from a pre-created vector index and summarizes them as a response to a question. You may construct the RAG software utilizing any framework, together with native Python code, however on this instance, we’re utilizing Langchain.
# ##################################
# Hook up with the Vector Search Index
# ##################################
vs_client = VectorSearchClient()
vs_index = vs_client.get_index(
endpoint_name="vector_search_endpoint",
index_name="vector_index_name",
)
# ##################################
# Set the Vector Search index right into a LangChain retriever
# ##################################
vector_search_as_retriever = DatabricksVectorSearch(
vs_index,
text_column='chunk_text',
columns=['chunk_id', 'chunk_text', 'document_uri'],
).as_retriever()
# ##################################
# RAG Chain
# ##################################
immediate = PromptTemplate(
template = "Reply the query...",
input_variables = ["question", "context"],
)
chain = (
vector_search_as_retriever,
| immediate
| ChatDatabricks(endpoint='dbrx_endpoint')
| StrOutputParser()
)
The very first thing we need to do is leverage MLflow to allow traces and deploy the applying. This may be achieved by including three easy traces within the software code (above) that enable Agent Framework to supply traces and a simple solution to observe and debug the applying.
## Allow MLflow Tracing
mlflow.langchain.autolog()
## Inform MLflow in regards to the schema of the retriever in order that
# 1. Evaluate App can correctly show retrieved chunks
# 2. Agent Analysis can measure the retriever
############
mlflow.fashions.set_retriever_schema(
primary_key='chunk_id'),
text_column='chunk_text',
doc_uri='document_uri'), # Evaluate App makes use of `doc_uri` to show
chunks from the identical doc in a single view
)
## Inform MLflow logging the place to seek out your chain.
mlflow.fashions.set_model(mannequin=chain)
MLflow Tracing supplies observability into your software throughout improvement and manufacturing
The following step is to register the GenAI software in Unity Catalog and deploy it as a proof of idea to get suggestions from stakeholders utilizing Agent Analysis’s evaluation software.
# Use Unity Catalog to log the chain
mlflow.set_registry_uri('databricks-uc')
UC_MODEL_NAME='databricks-rag-app'
# Register the chain to UC
uc_registered_model_info = mlflow.register_model(model_uri=model_uri,
title=UC_MODEL_NAME)
# Use Agent Framework to deploy a mannequin registed in UC to the Agent
Analysis evaluation software & create an agent serving endpoint
deployment_info = brokers.deploy(model_name=UC_MODEL_NAME,
model_version=uc_model.model)
# Assign permissions to the Evaluate App any person in your SSO
brokers.set_permissions(model_name=UC_MODEL_NAME,
customers=["[email protected]"],
permission_level=brokers.PermissionLevel.CAN_QUERY)
You may share the browser hyperlink with stakeholders and begin getting suggestions instantly! The suggestions is saved as delta tables in your Unity Catalog and can be utilized to construct an analysis dataset.
