- Rewrote index.md to match README (tagline, badges, Problem/Solution text) - Improved getting-started, concepts, quickstart, installation, faq, use-cases, contributing, glossary, learning-more, examples, modules, architecture, cookbook, deep-dive pages: tighter prose, fixed headings/bullets, removed inconsistencies and duplicate sections - Removed overuse of emojis from headings in integration pages (docling, snowflake) - Fixed change_management reference page: closed unclosed JSON code block that broke the right TOC, demoted noisy sub-headings to bold text - CSS layout: widened content area (max-width 1440px grid, left sidebar 11rem, right TOC narrowed to 11rem for broader content), tightened TOC spacing and font size, fixed word-wrap/overflow on TOC links - Added mkdocs_local.yml for local serving without mkdocs-jupyter plugin Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

## Configuration Reference
|
||
|
||
| Setting | Environment Variable | Default |
|
||
|---------|---------------------|---------|
|
||
| OpenAI API Key | `OPENAI_API_KEY` | `None` |
|
||
| Embedding Provider | `SEMANTICA_EMBEDDING_PROVIDER` | `"openai"` |
|
||
| Graph Backend | `SEMANTICA_GRAPH_BACKEND` | `"networkx"` |
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Troubleshooting
|
||
|
||
<div class="grid cards" markdown>
|
||
|
||
- :material-alert: **Import Errors**
|
||
---
|
||
`ModuleNotFoundError`
|
||
|
||
Verify installation: `pip list | grep semantica`. Ensure Python 3.8+.
|
||
|
||
- :material-key: **API Key Errors**
|
||
---
|
||
`AuthenticationError`
|
||
|
||
Set `OPENAI_API_KEY` (or the relevant provider key) as an environment variable.
|
||
|
||
- :material-memory: **Memory Errors**
|
||
---
|
||
`MemoryError` or OOM crashes
|
||
|
||
Reduce batch sizes or switch to a persistent graph backend (Neo4j, FalkorDB).
|
||
|
||
- :material-speedometer: **Slow Processing**
|
||
---
|
||
Long runtimes on large datasets
|
||
|
||
Enable parallel processing (`PipelineBuilder` workers) and GPU acceleration.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Performance Optimization
|
||
|
||
### Batch Processing
|
||
|
||
Process documents in batches rather than one at a time. Configure chunk sizes based on available RAM.
|
||
|
||
### Parallel Execution
|
||
|
||
`PipelineBuilder` supports configurable worker counts per stage for independent operations.
|
||
|
||
### Backend Selection
|
||
|
||
| Operation | NetworkX | Neo4j / FalkorDB |
|
||
|-----------|----------|------------------|
|
||
| Graph construction | Fast | Moderate |
|
||
| Query performance | Moderate | Fast |
|
||
| Scalability | Low (in-memory) | High (persistent) |
|
||
|
||
Use NetworkX for development and smaller graphs; switch to a persistent backend for production at scale.
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Security Best Practices
|
||
|
||
**API keys**
|
||
- Store in environment variables or a secrets manager
|
||
- Never hardcode keys or commit them to version control
|
||
- Rotate keys regularly
|
||
|
||
**Data privacy**
|
||
- Use local embedding models for sensitive data
|
||
- Avoid sending PII to external APIs without appropriate data handling agreements
|
||
- Encrypt sensitive graph exports at rest
