When should I adopt the Naive RAG Stack?

You need to ground an LLM in your documents with the smallest viable system.

What are common failure modes of Naive RAG Stack?

Low recall • Context overflow

Is Naive RAG Stack production-ready?

Yes when paired with the safety controls and observability hooks documented on the pattern page.

Naive RAG Stack — Architecture Pattern

Document ingestion → embeddings → vector store → top-k retrieval → prompt assembly → LLM generation.

What this reference supports

Naive RAG Stack — Architecture Pattern: This profile is a decision-support reference. It brings together practical fit, implementation context, related entities, evidence, and limitations without presenting a single universal recommendation.

Naive RAG Stack — Architecture Pattern: Use the profile to form a shortlist and identify evaluation questions. Confirm availability and operational constraints with current primary documentation, then test the candidate on representative inputs, failure cases, and governance requirements.

Naive RAG Stack — Architecture Pattern: Any fit language is provisional. Missing evidence remains a coverage gap, benchmark results only describe their stated protocol, and no profile score or relationship guarantees real-world performance.
