Talk: "Building, Debugging, Deploying RAG/LLM Applications using LangDB, SQL and Python" by Matteo Pelati & Vivek Gudapuri

In this session we will demonstrate how to build, debug and deploy an e2e LLM/RAG application using LangDB primarily using SQL

In this session we will:

• Ingest data from structured and unstructured documents
• Explore different types of document extraction processes and their implications (different types of chunking, semantic extraction, etc)
• Build a complex RAG agent flow and demonstrate how to implement complex agent behaviors (CoT, SelfRAG, etc.)
• Demonstrate how to debug and monitor an agent behavior
• Deploy an agent for immediate use

Matteo is an experienced data professional who has led data teams at DataRobot, DBS Bank and Goldman Sachs.

Vivek is an engineering leader and multiple times CTOs at different startups like Yojee and PaySense. Together they found LangDB to simplify the development of RAG applications.
