What the data for this category looks like
This category’s data covers daily business documents including family economic hardship certification forms, aid application forms, scholarship and grant review forms, distribution lists, and public notice materials. Data sources include the National Student Aid Management Information System, school student status systems, civil affairs low-income and special hardship data, and fiscal payment systems. Data updates follow a semester cycle. Each single document includes standardized fields such as student identity identifiers, family economic status, review process nodes, and distribution details. Most fields relate to identity, amount, or status. There are no complex multilingual mixing scenarios.
Constraints on Deployment and Upgrade
Multi-data source docking requirements demand compatibility with different systems’ format and permission specifications during deployment. The semester-level update cycle means the post-upgrade data synchronization process must remain stable, to avoid interruptions that impact semester review work. Documents use standardized fields but connect to multiple business links. Deployment must ensure accurate field matching for Q&A responses, to prevent incorrect or missed aid distributions caused by mismatched fields. The public nature of public notice materials and distribution lists requires permission configurations during deployment to comply with public service compliance standards. Additionally, single-batch data volume increases gradually as semester review progresses. Deployment must reserve sufficient storage and computing resources to avoid data loading delays during upgrades.
Configuration Settings
| Configuration Item | Recommended Setting | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
DB_MAX_LINK | 20–30 | Adapts to concurrent connection requirements for multi-system docking, and prevents database connection exhaustion during peak semester review periods |
REDIS_URL | Configure a dedicated Redis instance with a memory quota of 1000 MB | Stores Q&A sessions and temporary data, ensures data is not lost during the semester, and supports multi-node deployment |
STORAGE_S3_ENDPOINT | Endpoint address for connecting to the campus unified storage service | Unifies management of aid-related documents and knowledge base files, and complies with public service data storage standards |
FILE_TOKEN_KEY | Use the campus unified identity authentication key | Binds document access permissions to student identities, and prevents unauthorized access to public notice materials |
PG_URL | Read-only database address connected to the school student status system | Accurately retrieves student status data, and improves the accuracy of Q&A verification |
Three Common Misconfigurations
- Phenomenon: Q&A responses only return Chinese content, even when an English prompt is configured. Cause: The corresponding language knowledge base and model are not bound, and the exclusive prompt template for party building learning Q&A is not configured. The default Chinese model and Chinese knowledge base are used.
- Phenomenon: Field parsing fails when importing scholarship and grant distribution lists via Excel. Cause: The import template is not adjusted to match the category’s document field format, and field mapping verification is not enabled. This leads to parsing errors in fields such as bank card numbers and distribution amounts.
- Phenomenon: An error occurs when parsing an uploaded family economic hardship certification form after loading a model using a third-party deployment framework. Cause: The document chunking rules for the corresponding category are not configured, so the review detail content in long text cannot be correctly split and retrieved.
How to Confirm Configuration Validity
- Use the multi-data source synchronization plugin for FastGPT v4.17.0 to run a multi-data source synchronization test. Verify that synchronized student status and low-income data match the original system data, and confirm that the
PG_URLandSTORAGE_S3_ENDPOINTconfigurations take effect. - Import a single aid application form document to test the Q&A matching function, and confirm that field parsing and permission verification meet the configured requirements.
- Initiate multiple concurrent Q&A requests, observe the database connection count and response duration, and confirm that the
DB_MAX_LINKconfiguration supports concurrent requirements. - Check the persistence status of the Redis instance, confirm that session data is not lost, and meets semester-level data storage requirements.
