GraphRAG combines classical RAG with a knowledge graph so that entities, relations, and paths become explicit retrieval assets. Instead of only searching for similar text fragments, the system can query multi-step relationships and justify context in a more structured way. This is especially relevant for traceable answers, knowledge extraction, and relationa…
Use this profile to understand the building block briefly, place it in the model, and open related building blocks.
Theoretical construct: explains a term, principle, or mental model.
What organizes, connects, or makes decisions possible.
Augment RAG with graph structures so answers can use local entity context and global themes.
GraphRAG responds to limits of purely vector search for questions spanning documents and relationships. Microsoft released an open-source framework with indexing and multiple search modes.
Indexing creates entities, relationships, and community summaries. Local search follows neighbourhoods, global search uses summaries; both depend on extraction quality.
