Virtual Views for Ad-Hoc Analytics
Analyze and explore your data quickly and cost-effectively with Virtual Views. Virtual Views are relational projections of document data you can generate on demand. Optimized for ad-hoc reporting or repetitive calculations, Virtual Views allow you to run large-scale analytical queries without incurring the operational and resource cost of reindexing data.
Native Vector Operations
Store vector embeddings close to your data in JSON or XML format and enable large-scale similarity searches for GenAI systems on vast amounts of unstructured data. Complement with full-text queries through Optic API for the highest quality, trustworthy results, significantly reducing computational costs.
Enhanced Text Search with Best-Match [BM25] Relevance Ranking
Combine best-match relevance and vector calculations to re-rank results for optimal search accuracy. The comprehensive search capabilities of MarkLogic Server allow you to combine text-based and similarity-based queries, merge result scores and re-rank them with a single expression via its Optic API that parses the content most relevant to a user query to the LLM model.
Advanced Semantic Search with Graph Shortest Path Algorithm
Improve the contextual relevance of results and response time in graph RAG systems by effectively identifying the most relevant documents or phrases to answer a user or LLM-generated query. Find the most cost-effective or time-efficient solutions to route planning, network optimization and resource allocation.
Build Better Conversational Experiences
ChatBot Component
Easily integrate a customizable ChatBot component into your AI-enhanced React applications, removing the need for custom coding in MarkLogic.
Sample AI App
Get a blueprint of how to integrate an LLM model like Azure OpenAI with the FastTrack ChatBot component and Node.js Express. Code snippets included.
ExportData Component
Export displayed results to a CSV, JSON or XML file with the click of a button.
Hover Effect on Results
Add a highlight effect on mouse hover to your results display with the new event handlers for the ResultsSnippet and ResultsConfig components.
Configuration Argument in MarkLogicContext
Add request configurations such as timeouts, headers and parameter serialization, helping you flexibly meet different requirements.

Discover What’s New in Data Hub 6.1
Enhanced Knowledge Graph Visualization
Reveal new insights on domain knowledge with a user-friendly connected data exploration experience that intuitively follows your process.
Global Settings
Apply uniform provenance, validation and data access rules once and from a single location across all flows and models.
Debug Manager
Investigate and troubleshoot current activity in the system when you experience unusual behavior.
Additional Resources
Enhanced Knowledge Graph Visualization
A cleaner, crisper presentation of semantic data models helps you intuitively explore extremely large, connected data and draw insight faster. Now you can now zoom in on individual nodes in the Explore Module and the screen will automatically remove the "noise" around your data point of interest so you can focus on the smallest detail. The new entity grouping feature helps you organize your data landscape into data subsets with easy dragging and dropping, while decluttering your view and simplifying the complexity of the graph.
Zoom In and Out
Navigate your knowledge graph and expand individual data points to declutter the view of your hairy graph dataset.
Draw relationships
Connect nodes in your knowledge graph with a simple draw motion directly in the graph visualization UI.
Entity grouping
Arrange data points in your knowledge graphs in clusters with easy dragging and dropping to organize and simplify your view.
Global Settings
You can now centrally manage Provenance, Entity validation and Target permission settings through the Global Settings menu in the MarkLogic Data Hub. The new Global Settings menu allows you to set and configure properties to apply across the entire application.
Provenance
You can choose between coarse-grained, fine-grained or no lineage.
Entity validation
Part of the curation flow, the validation setting enables you to decide how strictly you want to force data to conform to the entity definition.
Target permissions
Apply to the output of every step that doesn't have its own target permissions setting. For example, you can give users permission to the mapped data only but not the raw data in the staging database.
Debug Manager
You can now perform diagnostics on the MarkLogic Data Hub when it does not behave as expected. The new debug task allows you to initiate a system log displaying all current activity so you can quickly see the most recent jobs, connection status to the application server as well as the latest created user roles and entities.
Streamline Data Operations for AI
Splitting Documents
Prepare your data for AI use cases and improve the quality of your vector searches while reducing LLM token consumption with out-of-the-box document splitting functionality.
Adding Vector Embeddings
Build a data pipeline to power your semantic RAG by adding vector embeddings to MarkLogic Server alongside operational data without the need for custom code.
Additional Resources
Splitting Documents
With the new splitting capability, you can provide just the right amount of content necessary to answer a user query. Set character length or split based on XML/JSON elements and the amount of chunks you want created. Store chunks alongside their original position or in separate documents linked to the original, preserving context and relevance
Adding Vector Embeddings
With the new embedding capability, you can leverage out-of-the-box implementations using LangChain4j and foundational LLM models like Azure OpenAI to generate and store vector embeddings in the source document in MarkLogic Server during import or copy. Complement with early access to vector operations to index and run similarity queries based on the user question.
