📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal

The session aimed to optimize data management processes using Chroma collections and SQLite caching, enhancing performance and efficiency in Python notebooks.

Key Activities

  • Implemented strategies to prevent unnecessary re-embedding by managing Chroma collections and using SQLite for persistent caching.
  • Developed a Python script for efficient data ingestion and caching, focusing on idempotency and performance optimization.
  • Improved node processing efficiency by using a SQLite ledger to track processed files, minimizing redundant operations.
  • Troubleshot unauthorized Jina API calls, ensuring proper API key usage and error handling.
  • Created a main driver section for a JSONL ingestion module, allowing for both fresh starts and incremental processing.

Achievements

  • Successfully implemented a caching mechanism to reduce latency and unnecessary API calls.
  • Enhanced data ingestion and node processing efficiency with SQLite and Chroma.
  • Resolved API call issues with Jina, ensuring robust error handling.

Pending Tasks

  • Further testing is required to validate the robustness of the caching and ingestion strategies under different data loads.
