What data for this category looks like

Data for this category originates from the formula and process library, raw material batch records, reactor DCS systems, weighing systems, LIMS, and warehouse management systems. Documents such as batch production instructions, feeding verification slips, reaction process logs, cleaning records, inspection reports, deviation and change orders are generated daily. Data is updated for each batch and critical step. Documents contain fields such as batch number, raw material batch information, reaction parameters, operation logs, and deviation explanations. Field units cover category-specific identifiers like reaction temperature, duration, and feeding weight. Data updates progress with production batches, and multiple related documents are generated within a single production cycle.

What constraints these characteristics impose during deployment and upgrades

The multi-source, heterogeneous data sources of this category require adapting to multiple system integrations during deployment to avoid data synchronization interruptions. The batch-updated document structure and sensitive formula requirements demand configuring fine-grained access permissions and data isolation rules. The production mode of switching between multiple product varieties requires compatible document parsing rules for different categories during upgrades to prevent configuration conflicts related to product change cleaning. The high-frequency data writes within a single production cycle require reserving sufficient database connection resources during the deployment phase to ensure system stability.

How to set configurations

These configurations are based on FastGPT v4.17.0 and adapted to the production scenario of this category:

Configuration ItemRecommended SettingRationale
MONGODB_URIPoint to a dedicated MongoDB instance storing process documents and batch dataThis category's data is stored in batch-isolated partitions; a dedicated database ensures data security and query efficiency
REDIS_URLConfigure as a local cache instance with 800–1200 MB of allocated memoryUsed to cache real-time reaction parameters and feeding records, adapting to high-frequency read production scenarios
STORAGE_S3_ENDPOINTBind to the enterprise's internal compliant storage nodeUsed to store sensitive formula documents and exception reports, complying with data confidentiality requirements
DB_MAX_LINKSet to 200–300Adapts to concurrent connection requirements for parallel document generation across multiple batches, preventing connection exhaustion
FE_DOMAINConfigure as the enterprise's internal access domain nameRestrict external access to prevent unauthorized acquisition of process data
FILE_TOKEN_KEYGenerate a dedicated key in accordance with enterprise key management specificationsUsed to encrypt document access tokens, preventing unauthorized access to sensitive documents

Three common mistakes

  • Pulling the arm64 architecture image fails. Cause: The corresponding architecture's image tag is not specified; the default image only supports x86 architecture.
  • Dependency version mismatch occurs during pure source code deployment. Cause: FastGPT v4.17.0's dependency versions are not locked, leading to conflicts with the system environment.
  • Document parsing exceptions occur after upgrading from an older version to 4.12.3. Cause: Custom document parsing templates were not migrated during the upgrade process; the new version's parsing logic is incompatible with the old configuration.

How to confirm the configuration is complete

  • Run the docker ps command to confirm that the architecture identifier of the corresponding container matches the deployment server.
  • Import a test batch's feeding verification slip to check that the field completeness of the parsed document conforms to preset rules.
  • Initiate an exception report generation request to verify that the response time falls within 10–30 seconds.
  • Access the address bound to FE_DOMAIN to confirm that only authorized accounts can access the system.
