Mastering the Open-Book Test – Why and How Retrieval-Augmented Generation Improves GenAI Outcomes
Gen AI has a trust problem. From hallucinations to opaque processing of sensitive data – language models such as GPT-4, LLAMA-3 and many more do not seem to be enterprise-ready without further governance. Read this research note to find out why Retrieval Augmented Generation can be a governed approach to AI in your organization that is also performant and robust.

Further information
Retrieval-augmented generation, or RAG, selects and feeds domain-specific data into language models to improve their accuracy. We define RAG, its challenges, benefits, must-have characteristics and common use cases. We then evaluate three architectural approaches – vector RAG for semantics, relational RAG for database values, and graph RAG for ontologies – and provide an example of a hybrid solution that combines all three approaches. Data and AI leaders that read this report will learn the value of RAG and guiding principles to get started.

Here is some guidance:
- If your company does not offer software consulting or solutions, and the use of one or more software solutions (e.g., BI or ECM solutions) is either part of your everyday work or in the pipeline, then please select the option "work for a software user company" regardless of your industry sector or company size.
- Do you work for a company that offers software solutions (e.g., BI or ECM solutions)? Then please select "work for a software provider".
- If your company offers IT/software consulting or services, then "work for an IT service provider/consulting firm" is the right choice.
- Do you work or study in an educational institution such as a university or a research institute? Then choose "work/study in an educational institution".
- Do you work as an IT journalist and write technical articles, features, blogs etc. for media companies? Then please click on "work as a journalist".
- Does your company invest in companies in the B2B software sector? Then please select "work for an investment company."
