Available as open source on GitHub and no-software cost deployment in AWS Marketplace

MDACA continues to lead the provisioning of open source solutions in support of both government and private enterprise organizations.  We celebrate over 25-years of commitment to fostering the adoption of enterprise, DoD-grade, supported open source solutions. Now aligned under the new leadership of the DDC Innovation Team with a continued commitment of delivering enterprise solution accelerators as well as supporting the open source community, we are releasing MDACA PrivateGPT to our open source community (https://github.com/mdaca/privategpt/).  This is one of many planned future releases in support of the DoD initiative of leveraging open source software to support mission needs.

MDACA PrivateGPT is an application of artificial intelligence (AI) technology harnessed as another resource for enterprises to utilize in advancing and meeting corporate objectives and overall success. As a natural language processing tool, its performance, reliability, and scalability make it invaluable for businesses looking to stay at the forefront of innovation in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.  

Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) is a natural language processing technique that combines the strengths of both retrieval-based and generative models to produce high-quality responses to user queries. In RAG, a retrieval model is used to identify relevant passages of text from a knowledge store, which are then used as input to a generative model that produces a response. This approach allows the generative model to focus on generating high-quality responses based on the context provided by the retrieved passages.

In MDACA PrivateGPT, we used RAG to provide targeted context to a user’s question by leveraging both public and private knowledge stores. The retrieval model identifies relevant passages of text from these knowledge stores, which are then used as input to the generative model to produce a response that is tailored to the user’s specific needs. This approach allows PrivateGPT to provide accurate and relevant responses to user queries, while also ensuring responses are generated in a manner consistent with the context provided by the retrieved passages.

MDACA PrivateGPT is a powerful and innovative enterprise version of GPT, providing data privacy and security by running on an organization’s servers, enhancing data protection compliance by mitigating the risks associated with sensitive information going outside your organization.  MDACA PrivateGPT assists with a wide range of business tasks such as answering queries, generating reports, and enhancing software development activities.  MDACA PrivateGPT provides capabilities to deploy on your organization’s servers – on-prem or in the cloud – as well as securely integrating with OpenAI or Azure’s OpenAI APIs.  MDACA PrivateGPT offers advanced features to further tailor the experience to your organization:
