Chunking transformation

In advanced mode, the Chunking transformation splits large pieces of text into smaller segments, or chunks. This helps to increase the content's relevance before the Target transformation writes the embeddings and metedata to a vector database.
Pass output from a Chunking transformation to a Vector Embedding transformation to create vector embeddings for the text. For more information, see Vector Embedding transformation.
When you configure a Chunking transformation, choose a chunking method based on the text you want to split.To select the method, consider the following factors:
Note: The Chunking transformation can't run in a serverless runtime environment or on GPUs. If the transformation runs on a GPU-enabled cluster, GPUs are disabled and the transformation consumes CPUs.
