RAG Pipeline: 7 Iterations Explained!
Cyril Imhof
but not shipping anything Let’s change that. On Saturday, 1 November, 11:00 AM–12:30 PM GST, I’m running a live, free masterclass: “Ship Your RAG Application – Hands-On.” This is for builders who want to go from “I understand RAG in theory” to “here is my working app on Hugging Face Spaces.” What we’ll do in 90 minutes: Clarify when to use RAG vs. fine-tuning (and why most business use cases are RAG-first). Build a minimal pipeline: ingest → embed → store → retrieve → generate. Add quick evaluation using RAGAS-style checks so you don’t demo hallucinations. Ship a simple Gradio UI and deploy it to Hugging Face Spaces. Walk away with templates, checklist, and starter repo.
