NVIDIA AI Virtual Assistant
Executive Summary
Enterprise data is often distributed across unstructured documents and structured databases, making it difficult to extract complete business context through a single system. This blog explains the design of a Hybrid Virtual Assistant that reasons across both data types using NVIDIA NIM, Agno, and a hybrid retrieval architecture. The system enables accurate, grounded, and scalable enterprise intelligence through natural language interaction.
Challenges
Solution Overview
The solution is a Hybrid Dual-Brain Virtual Assistant designed to reason across unstructured and structured data sources. Using NVIDIA NIM for inference and Agno as the agentic orchestration layer, the system dynamically interprets user intent and selects the appropriate retrieval strategy. It combines semantic document retrieval with precise database querying and synthesizes results into a single, coherent response.
How it Works
AI Virtual Assistant -Powered by NVIDIA Architecture
- Multi-Source Data Ingestion: Enterprise data is ingested from documents, URLs, and databases.
- Document Vectorization: Documents are parsed and converted into vector embeddings.
- Automatic Schema Understanding: Database schemas are automatically analyzed and understood by the agent.
- Intent-Based Query Classification: User queries are classified based on intent.
- Dynamic Tool Invocation: Relevant retrieval tools are triggered dynamically.
- Context Re-Ranking: Retrieved context is reranked for relevance.
- Response Synthesis & Streaming: The final response is synthesized and streamed to the user.
