Search technology remains one of the major challenges in computer science, with few commercial products capable of searching effectively. Before the rise of Large Language Models (LLMs), powerful search capabilities weren't considered essential, as they didn't contribute directly to user experience. However, as the LLMs began to gain popularity, a powerful built-in retrieval system became required to apply LLMs to enterprise settings. This is also known as Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)...| ragflow.io

RAGFlow v0.6.0 was released this week, solving many ease-of-use and stability issues that emerged since it was open sourced earlier this April. Future releases of RAGFlow will focus on tackling the deep-seated problems of RAG capability. Hate to say it, existing RAG solutions in the market are still in POC (Proof of Concept) stage and can’t be applied directly to real production scenarios. This is primarily due to the numerous unresolved issues within RAG itself:| ragflow.io
