How to Cut RAG Inference Costs by 6x: Cascade Architecture ExplainedArtificial intelligence

How to Cut RAG Inference Costs by 6x: Cascade Architecture Explained

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems often struggle with high inference costs and opaque decision-making, particularly in regulated sectors. Traditional approaches route all ambiguous cases directly to large language models (LLMs), driving up expenses and complicating audits.

This method not only reduces costs but also enhances solution quality and explainability.
