Unlock Better RAG & AI Agents with Docling
IBM Technology. Explains the ingestion side of RAG and agents: preparing PDFs and other files so document structure, tables and layout survive into downstream retrieval. That supports the article's warning that RAG quality and safety begin before embedding, especially when parsing complex business documents.
AI Expert note
This is a strong document-processing companion, but it is not a complete security plan. It does not replace file allowlists, malware scanning, permission metadata, retention/deletion behavior, source ownership or ingestion audit logs.
What you should get from this
Understand why document parsing, structure preservation and ingestion quality gates matter before building RAG over PDFs and mixed file formats.
