204 (Level 2)

We migrated ~1,500 OpenSearch nodes across 7 clusters in 5 regions from Intel to AWS Graviton 4, upgrading from OpenSearch 2.13 to 3.4 and JVM 17 to 21 along the way. We saw 2x indexing throughput and ~30% cost savings. We want to share the benchmarking data, compare migration strategies (inline upgrade, snapshot-restore, and why CCS didn't work), and push more teams toward Graviton. A practical...

Large Language Model agents frequently rely on retrieval systems to make decisions, yet most pipelines still depend on a naive top-k retrieval strategy.

Monday June 15, 2026 3:50pm - 4:30pm IST

204 (Level 2)

Enterprise search is evolving from keyword-based retrieval into intelligent, context-aware systems powered by generative AI. While many RAG examples focus on simple vector lookups, building a production-grade, multi-modal RAG platform requires more—especially at enterprise scale. This talk presents a reference architecture for agent-assisted, multi-modal RAG systems with OpenSearch as the core...
