Knowledge base can split your source data into chunks. A chunk refers to an excerpt from a data source that is returned when the knowledge base that it belongs to is queried. You have the following options for chunking your data. If you opt for
NONE, then you may want to pre-process your files by splitting them up such that each file corresponds to a chunk.-
FIXED_SIZE– Amazon Bedrock splits your source data into chunks of the approximate size that you set in thefixedSizeChunkingConfiguration. -
HIERARCHICAL– Split documents into layers of chunks where the first layer contains large chunks, and the second layer contains smaller chunks derived from the first layer. -
SEMANTIC– Split documents into chunks based on groups of similar content derived with natural language processing. -
NONE– Amazon Bedrock treats each file as one chunk. If you choose this option, you may want to pre-process your documents by splitting them into separate files.
