When NOT to use rag-fusion

Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.

  • Data & Retrieval: Skip a heavy ingestion framework when your corpus is small and static; a script plus the embedding API is enough.
  • LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
  • Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate.

Common questions

What are the best alternatives to rag-fusion?
Graph-backed alternatives to rag-fusion include AutoRAG, llm-app, awesome-generative-ai, Awesome-LLM-RAG, chatWeb. GraphCanon ranks them by typed relationship edges and constraint overlap from decision_facts - not marketing votes or raw star sort.
How does GraphCanon rank rag-fusion alternatives?
Direct alternative and successor edges from the knowledge graph come first, ordered by edge type and shared constraint facets (persona, runtime, hosting). Category neighbours fill the list only after curated edges. Stars are shown for context, not as the primary sort.
When should I avoid rag-fusion?
Data & Retrieval: Skip a heavy ingestion framework when your corpus is small and static; a script plus the embedding API is enough. LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
