Deployment and Upgrade for In-App Natural Language Retrieval of Indicator Calibers

Indicator caliber data primarily comes from internal business statistics systems of financial institutions, regulatory reporting specification

What the data for this category looks like

Indicator caliber data primarily comes from internal business statistics systems of financial institutions, regulatory reporting specification documents released by regulators, and wealth product prospectuses. Update rhythms vary: regulatory calibers are adjusted alongside regulatory policies, with a monthly or quarterly update cycle; internal business indicators are updated with product iterations and business rule adjustments, mostly on a monthly basis. A single caliber document includes fields such as caliber name, official definition, calculation logic, applicable business scenarios, statistical cycle, and unit of measurement. Some calibers also include special calculation rule descriptions, with a wide range of text lengths.

What constraints these characteristics impose on deployment and upgrade

Decentralized data sources require configuring multi-source data access adapters during the deployment phase, covering different storage formats such as internal databases and static documents. Differences in update rhythms require the upgrade process to support flexible synchronization strategies: full synchronization can be used for initial deployment, and incremental synchronization can be configured for daily updates. Long-text calculation logic fields require adjusting vector chunking granularity to avoid destroying the integrity of calculation rules. Unit of measurement information in fields needs separate mapping to prevent unit confusion in retrieval results.

How to set configurations

Configuration ItemRecommended ValueRationale
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS300-600 secondsIndicator caliber documents contain long-text calculation logic, with longer parsing time than regular documents, so the timeout period needs to be extended
SYNC_INTERVAL86400 seconds or 604800 secondsMatches the regular update cycles of regulatory calibers and internal indicators, choose daily or weekly synchronization as needed
RECALL_TOP_KTop 10-15 entriesThe total volume of indicator calibers is relatively manageable, and enough relevant results need to be covered to meet retrieval needs
SIMILARITY_THRESHOLD0.75-0.85Indicator caliber names and definitions have high similarity, so the threshold needs to be raised to filter irrelevant similar results
VECTOR_CHUNK_SIZE800-1200 charactersAdapt to long-text calculation logic paragraphs, avoiding segmentation that destroys rule integrity
UPLOAD_FILE_MAX_SIZE500 MBBulk imported regulatory documents have a large combined volume, so the upload limit needs to be relaxed

The parameter values provided on this page are common recommended starting points for configuration. Actual values are affected by material format, data volume, and business rules. Specific issues require individual analysis, and testing on local samples should be conducted before finalizing settings.

Three common mistakes

  • Issue: The management page returns a 404 or 502 error after redeployment. Cause: The database connection address and secret key in the original configuration file were not retained during deployment, causing the service to fail to read existing metadata.
  • Issue: The applicable scope field of indicator calibers is empty in retrieval results. Cause: The applicable scope field was not mapped during data import, so the vector database did not include this dimension of information.
  • Issue: Multiple users cannot share the same team's retrieval tasks after logging in. Cause: Multi-user team permission configuration was not enabled, and the association between user roles and teams was not bound.

How to confirm successful configuration

  • Run a manual synchronization task, check whether the synchronization log displays the number of successfully imported indicator calibers, and confirm that the data source connection and synchronization logic are functioning correctly.
  • Initiate a natural language retrieval, input a query term containing an indicator name, check whether the returned results include caliber definitions, calculation logic and units of measurement, and confirm that the vector chunking and field mapping configurations are effective.
  • Modify the definition of a test indicator caliber, trigger incremental synchronization, check whether the retrieval results are updated to the latest content, and confirm that the upgrade synchronization logic is effective.
  • Add a test account and assign team permissions, log in with the test account and initiate a retrieval, and confirm that the multi-user permission configuration is effective.
