Ansible London Meetup 2024: GraphRAG, Neo4j & the Future of Automation
🇬🇧 Ansible London Meetup – September 23, 2024
Yesterday’s Ansible London Meetup was full of open-source energy and community connections! I had the pleasure of demoing how to deploy GraphRAG using Ansible — integrating the power of OpenAI’s ChatGPT LLM with the Neo4j graph database.
The room was packed with excitement, and I’m still buzzing from the incredible conversations and curiosity from everyone who attended!
⚙️ My Talk: Deploying GraphRAG with Ansible
For my demo, I showcased how to use Ansible to:
- Automate the deployment of Neo4j
- Connect and configure OpenAI’s LLM (ChatGPT) for GraphRAG
- Showcase how graph-enhanced retrieval can be orchestrated smoothly using Ansible Playbooks
- Highlight how this integrates into modern GenAI pipelines
It was awesome to see the audience’s response and the thoughtful follow-up questions afterward!
🤝 Community Highlights
A huge thank you to the Ansible community team, especially Sorin Sbârnea, for setting the stage with excellent overviews of Ansible Automation Platform 2.5, what’s new in the Red Hat ecosystem, and a glimpse into the future of automation.
Big shout-out to Dell Technologies for hosting us in a top-notch venue, and of course to the amazing organizers who made it all possible.
