Most RAG systems don’t fail in demos.
They fail after deployment.

I’ve reviewed 30+ real-world RAG implementations, and the pattern is always the same:

Most teams build:
👉 Embed → Store → Retrieve

But production systems require a very different mindset.

In this video, I break down:

Why “tutorial RAG” architectures collapse in real usage

The 7 layers production teams don’t skip

Where RAG costs actually come from (real numbers, not guesses)

How permissions, chunking, reranking, and architecture sequencing matter more than tools

Why most teams over-focus on vector databases and under-focus on system design

This is not another “how to use ChromaDB / LangChain” tutorial.

This is how production RAG systems are actually built in 2026.


🧠 CORE TAKEAWAY

Most teams build:
Embed → Store → Retrieve

Production teams build:
Process → Chunk → Embed → Store → Query → Filter → Rerank → Generate

That difference leads to:

60% accuracy vs 85% accuracy

Data leakage vs proper access control

$7,500/month vs $2,500/month

If you’re building RAG for real users, you can’t skip layers.
