Many enterprises are leveraging RAG (Red, Amber, Green) architectures as an entry point into generative AI. To use this technology with proprietary data, it is necessary to securely combine the data with foundation models trained on public datasets using vector databases. However, integrating data upstream of vector databases presents a significant engineering challenge. Fivetran and Pinecone provide a seamless solution to this problem by enabling users to unlock powerful insights without extensive setup. The process involves setting up connectors to sync data to a data lake, transforming the data into a RAG-ready format, creating a RAG application using Pinecone Assistant, and loading files into the Assistant. This approach minimizes technical overhead usually required for AI-driven data insights.
