Summary

Haystack is an open source Python framework by deepset for building custom apps with LLMs. It allows developers to quickly try out the latest models in natural language processing (NLP) and integrates with various AI tools, including vector databases like DataStax Astra DB. In this tutorial, we walk through a simple example of using Haystack pipelines to store and retrieve data in Astra DB on a local machine. We demonstrate how to load data from the Star Wars Wikipedia page into the database, and then build a simple RAG application to answer questions about Star Wars using vector search.
