Resolution overview

The answer makes use of Retrieval-Augmented Technology (RAG) to retrieve related info from a data base and return it to the consumer based mostly on their entry. It consists of the next key elements:

• Amazon Bedrock Data Bases – Content material from the corporate’s web site is crawled and saved within the data base. Paperwork from an Amazon Easy Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket, together with manuals and troubleshooting guides, are additionally listed and saved within the data base. With Amazon Bedrock Data Bases, you may configure a number of knowledge sources and use the filter configurations to distinguish between inner and exterior info. This helps shield inner knowledge via superior safety controls.
• Amazon Bedrock managed LLMs – A big language mannequin (LLM) from Amazon Bedrock generates AI-powered responses to consumer questions.
• Scalable serverless structure – The answer makes use of Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) to host the UI, and an AWS Lambda operate to deal with the consumer requests.
• Automated CI/CD deployment – The answer makes use of the AWS Cloud Improvement Equipment (AWS CDK) to deal with steady integration and supply (CI/CD) deployment.

The next diagram illustrates the structure of this resolution.

The workflow consists of the next steps:

1. Amazon Bedrock Data Bases processes paperwork uploaded to Amazon S3 by chunking them and producing embeddings. Moreover, the Amazon Bedrock net crawler accesses chosen web sites to extract and ingest their contents.
2. The online utility runs as an ECS utility. Inner and exterior customers use browsers to entry the applying via Elastic Load Balancing (ELB). Customers log in to the applying utilizing their login credentials registered in an Amazon Cognito consumer pool.
3. When a consumer submits a query, the applying invokes a Lambda operate, which makes use of the Amazon Bedrock APIs to retrieve the related info from the data base. It additionally provides the related knowledge supply IDs to Amazon Bedrock based mostly on consumer sort (exterior or inner) so the data base retrieves solely the knowledge obtainable to that consumer sort.
4. The Lambda operate then invokes the Amazon Nova Lite LLM to generate responses. The LLM augments the knowledge from the data base to generate a response to the consumer question, which is returned from the Lambda operate and exhibited to the consumer.

Within the following sections, we show the right way to crawl and configure the exterior web site as a data base, and in addition add inner documentation.
