🎉🎉 🎉 "Knowledge Graphs Applied" becomes "Knowledge Graphs and LLMs in Action" Four years ago, we embarked on writing "Knowledge Graphs Applied" with a clear mission: to guide practitioners in implementing production-ready knowledge graph solutions. Drawing from our extensive field experience across multiple domains, we aimed to share battle-tested best practices that transcend basic use cases. Like fine wine, ideas, and concepts need time to mature. During these four years of careful development, we witnessed a seismic shift in the technological landscape. Large Language Models (LLMs) emerged not just as a buzzword, but as a transformative force that naturally converged with knowledge graphs.  This synergy unlocked new possibilities, particularly in simplifying complex tasks like unstructured data ingestion and knowledge graph-based question-answering. We couldn't ignore this technological disruption. Instead, we embraced it, incorporating our hands-on experience in combining LLMs with graph technologies. The result is "Knowledge Graphs and LLMs in Action" – a thoroughly revised work with new chapters and an expanded scope. Yet our fundamental goal remains unchanged: to empower you to harness the full potential of knowledge graphs, now enhanced by their increasingly natural companion, LLMs. This book represents the culmination of a journey that evolved alongside the technology itself. It delivers practical, production-focused guidance for the modern era, in which knowledge graphs and LLMs work in concert. Now available in MEAP, with new LLMs-focused chapters ready to be published. #llms #knowledgegraph #graphdatascience

Build a graph for RAG application for a price of a chocolate bar! What is GraphRAG for you? What is GraphRAG? What does GraphRAG mean from your perspective? What if you could have a standard RAG and a GraphRAG as a combi-package, with just a query switch? The fact is, there is no concrete, universal

Biel/Bienne, Switzerland – February 24, 2025 – Knowledge graphs are becoming critical infrastructure for enterprises handling large-scale, interconnected data. Yet, many existing solutions struggle with scalability, performance, and cost—forcing organizations into proprietary ecosystems with high op

Apache Parquet is an important part of the mainstream data stack. It provides a space-efficient, widely-supported way to exchange tabular data that can be used directly by various query engines.

New features include community summaries, local and global retrievers, running retrievers in parallel, and custom prompt instructions.
