YanRong Storage and FastGPT AI knowledge base platform make it easier for enterprises to build complex LLM applications.

As generative AI continues to evolve rapidly, two major challenges hinder its practical deployment across enterprises: hallucination in large language models (LLMs) and complex data governance. YanRong Storage, as a innovation poineer in high-performance AI storage, announced the official release of our new product, DataInsight, and a strategic collaboration with FastGPT, a mainstream Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) platform. Through its breakthough capabilities of unifying diverse data sources and enabling real-time knowledge base updates, DataInsight empowers enterprises to build trustworthy and efficient AI applications.

AI Inference Faces Barriers from Hallucinations and Data Management Challenges

LLMs are being widely adopted across industries, yet hallucinations—when models generate inaccurate or illogical outputs—remain a significant barrier to reliability and practicality. RAG technology has emerged as a critical and practical solution to this issue. By combining retrieval mechanisms with generative capabilities, RAG connects generative AI services to specific and relevant data resources, typically structured as knowledge bases, significantly improving response accuracy and contextual relevance.

However, the practical deployment of RAG systems brings new challenges, particularly around managing heterogeneous and distributed data sources. Enterprise data continues to grow explosively, with varied types and formats scattered across diverse storage systems. As a result, knowledge base platforms face several limitations:

• Inability to unify data from multiple storage systems, requiring manual uploads and increasing operational costs.
• Difficulty in precisely importing the required data based on query conditions, resulting in inefficient data retrieval and response.
• Outdated knowledge caused by delayed data synchronization, undermining the accuracy of AI-generated outputs.

DataInsight + FastGPT: Precision Inference Engine for Domain-Specific AI

To address these pressing issues, YanRong Storage and FastGPT have joined forces to launch DataInsight, a breakthrough solution purpose-built for AI inference workflows.

FastGPT is an open-source and powerful AI knowledge base platform that provides robust features such as out-of-the-box data processing, model invocation, RAG retrieval, multi-granularity access control, two-way MCP, and visual AI workflow via Flow.

By deeply integrating FastGPT's RAG knowledge base capabilities with YanRong's storage expertise, DataInsight features several cutting-edge technical innovations:

• Intelligent Management of Heterogeneous Data Sources

  Powered by a proprietary data engine, DataInsight seamlessly integrates multiple data sources, including S3 object storage, NAS, cloud storage and YRCloudFile distributed file storage. It supports full and incremental metadata collection, enabling unified cross-system data governance.

• Efficient Collaboration with RAG Platforms

  DataInsight can connect with leading RAG platforms such as FastGPT via RESTful API. Users can customize query policies and achieve sub-second retrieval across tens of billions of files, dramatically enhancing the efficiency of data invocation for inference operations.

• Real-Time Data Synchronization

  DataInsight continuously monitors underlying data sources. Any changes—new additions or modifications—automatically trigger knowledge base updates, ensuring that LLMs are always powered by fresh, reliable data.

Empowering AI Across Industries

The release of DataInsight represents a major step forward in AI data management. It allows organizations to activate and leverage massive volumes of historical data without changing existing workflows, resolving the "last-mile" data governance challenges in LLM deployment across industires.

"We are excited to partner with YanRong Storage," said Jinlong Yu, the author of FastGPT. "DataInsight's innovation in managing heterogeneous data and enabling real-time updates brings unprecedented efficiency and freshness to FastGPT knowledge bases. Together, we are advancing the capabilities of RAG platforms and making it easier for users to build trustworthy AI applications based on the newest enterprise data. We believe that the collaboration between DataInsight and FastGPT is a crucial step towards future AI inference scenarios and will accelerate the large-scale application of AI technology across various industries."

Driving the Future of Accurate AI Inference

As AI becomes increasingly integral to enterprise operations, addressing hallucinations and data-related challenges is not optional—it’s essential. YanRong Storage’s DataInsight is purpose-built to tackle these exact obstacles, delivering significantly more accurate, reliable, and efficient AI inference.

Looking ahead, YanRong Storage will continue to enhance DataInsight and deepen its collaboration with platforms like FastGPT. Together, we aim to unlock new possibilities in AI inference and data intelligence, helping enterprises scale generative AI solutions with greater trust and performance.
