Build MegaService of ChatQnA on Gaudi
This document outlines the deployment process for a ChatQnA application utilizing the GenAIComps microservice pipeline on Intel Gaudi server. The steps include Docker image creation, container deployment via Docker Compose, and service execution to integrate microservices such as embedding, retriever, rerank, and llm. We will publish the Docker images to Docker Hub, it will simplify the deployment process for this service.
🚀 Build Docker Images
First of all, you need to build Docker Images locally. This step can be ignored after the Docker images published to Docker hub.
1. Source Code install GenAIComps
git clone https://github.com/opea-project/GenAIComps.git
cd GenAIComps
2. Build Embedding Image

curl http://${host_ip}:6000/v1/embeddings \
-X POST \
-d '{"text":"hello"}' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json'
- Retriever Microservice
To consume the retriever microservice, you need to generate a mock embedding vector by Python script. The length of embedding vector
is determined by the embedding model.
Here we use the model EMBEDDING_MODEL_ID="BAAI/bge-base-en-v1.5", which vector size is 768.
Check the vecotor dimension of your embedding model, set your_embedding dimension equals to it.
export your_embedding=$(python3 -c "import random; embedding = [random.uniform(-1, 1) for _ in range(768)]; print(embedding)")

🚀 Launch the UI
To access the frontend, open the following URL in your browser: http://{host_ip}:5173. By default, the UI runs on port 5173 internally. If you prefer to use a different host port to access the frontend, you can modify the port mapping in the compose.yaml file as shown below:
chaqna-gaudi-ui-server:
image: opea/chatqna-ui:latest
...
ports:
- "80:5173"
Here is an example of running ChatQnA:
🚀 Launch the Conversational UI (Optional)
To access the Conversational UI (react based) frontend, modify the UI service in the compose.yaml file. Replace chaqna-gaudi-ui-server service with the chatqna-gaudi-conversation-ui-server service as per the config below:
chaqna-gaudi-conversation-ui-server:
image: opea/chatqna-conversation-ui:latest
container_name: chatqna-gaudi-conversation-ui-server
environment:
- APP_BACKEND_SERVICE_ENDPOINT=${BACKEND_SERVICE_ENDPOINT}
- APP_DATA_PREP_SERVICE_URL=${DATAPREP_SERVICE_ENDPOINT}
ports:
- "5174:80"
depends_on:
- chaqna-gaudi-backend-server
ipc: host
restart: always
Once the services are up, open the following URL in your browser: http://{host_ip}:5174. By default, the UI runs on port 80 internally. If you prefer to use a different host port to access the frontend, you can modify the port mapping in the compose.yaml file as shown below:
chaqna-gaudi-conversation-ui-server:
image: opea/chatqna-conversation-ui:latest
...
ports:
- "80:80"
