Training for Structured Datasets

Training in Amplifi creates intelligent SQL query generation systems. This process teaches AI models to understand your specific database schema, business terminology, and query patterns, enabling accurate natural language to SQL conversion.

Why Training Matters for Structured Data​

Structured datasets require specialized training to:

  • Learn Your Schema: Understand table structures, relationships, and column meanings specific to your business
  • Master Business Context: Recognize industry terminology and domain-specific concepts
  • Optimize Query Patterns: Learn common query structures and preferred join patterns
  • Ensure Accuracy: Generate precise SQL that matches your data model and business rules

The Training Process for Structured Data​

1. Schema Learning​

Amplifi analyzes your database schema to build comprehensive understanding:

  • Table Relationships: Primary keys, foreign keys, and complex multi-table relationships
  • Column Semantics: Understanding what each column represents in your business context
  • Data Types & Constraints: Proper handling of numeric, text, date, and custom data types
  • Business Logic: Learning implicit rules and relationships in your data model

2. Query Pattern Recognition​

The system learns from your query history to:

  • Identify Common Questions: Recognize frequently asked business questions
  • Learn Preferred Structures: Understand your team's preferred query patterns
  • Optimize Join Patterns: Learn efficient ways to combine related tables
  • Understand Aggregations: Master grouping, filtering, and calculation patterns

3. Context Understanding​

Amplifi builds deep contextual knowledge:

  • Business Terminology: Learn industry-specific terms and their SQL equivalents
  • Query Intent: Understand what users really want when they ask questions
  • Result Formatting: Learn preferred output formats and summary styles
  • Error Prevention: Identify potentially problematic queries before execution

Training Configuration Options​

Automatic Training​

Amplifi can automatically train on your structured datasets by:

  • Analyzing Query Logs: Learning from actual questions asked by your team
  • Schema Exploration: Understanding table relationships and data distribution
  • Pattern Recognition: Identifying common question structures and preferred answers

Manual Training​

For more control, you can configure training parameters:

  • Training Data Selection: Choose specific tables and columns to focus on
  • Example Queries: Provide sample questions and their corresponding SQL
  • Business Rules: Define important constraints and validation rules
  • Custom Vocabulary: Teach domain-specific terminology and concepts

Supported Database Training​

Amplifi supports training for:

  • PostgreSQL: Full schema analysis and query optimization
  • MySQL: Table structure understanding and performance tuning
  • Amazon Redshift: Large-scale data warehouse optimization
  • Other SQL Databases: Compatible with standard SQL schemas

Training Best Practices​

For Optimal Performance​

  • Start with Core Tables: Focus on your most important business entities first
  • Include Representative Questions: Use real questions your team actually asks
  • Define Clear Relationships: Ensure foreign key relationships are well-documented
  • Monitor Training Progress: Track how well the model understands your schema

For Data Security​

  • Anonymize Sensitive Data: Remove or mask PII during training when necessary
  • Control Access: Ensure only authorized users can initiate or modify training processes
  • Audit Training Activities: Log all training operations for compliance and debugging

Training Results and Monitoring​

After training completion, Amplifi provides:

  • Performance Improvements: Query execution time reductions and resource utilization
  • Usage Insights: Most common query patterns and optimization opportunities

Continuous Learning​

Amplifi's training system supports:

  • Incremental Updates: Automatically retrain when schema changes occur
  • Usage-Based Optimization: Continuously improve based on actual query patterns
  • Version Control: Track model versions and rollback if needed

Troubleshooting Training Issues​

Common Problems​

  • Poor Query Accuracy: May indicate insufficient training data or complex schema relationships
  • Slow Performance: Could be due to suboptimal indexes or large table sizes
  • Training Failures: Often caused by connectivity issues or permission problems

Solutions​

  • Increase Sample Size: Use more representative data for better model training
  • Optimize Schema: Add appropriate indexes and review table relationships
  • Check Connectivity: Ensure stable database connections during training

Amplifi uses technology for structured data training, ensuring that you can provide fast, accurate, and contextually aware responses to natural language queries against your database systems.
