WildFly AI Feature Pack

This feature-pack for WildFly simplifies the integration of AI in applications. The AI Galleon feature-pack is to be provisioned along with the WildFly Galleon feature-pack.

The Galleon layers defined in these feature-packs are decorator layers. This means that they need to be provisioned in addition to a WildFly base layer. The WildFly Installation Guide covers the base layers that WildFly defines.

NOTE: The base layer ai (that provisions WildFly AI subsystem) is the minimal base layer to use when provisioning Galleon layers that these feature-packs define.

• WildFly Installation Guide
• Galleon documentation

Galleon feature-pack compatible with WildFly

The Maven coordinates to use is: org.wildfly:wildfly-ai-galleon-pack::<version>

Supported AI types

For each AI type it supports, the feature-pack provides 17 Galleon layers that build upon each other :

• Support for chat models to interact with a LLM:
  • mistral-ai-chat-model
  • ollama-chat-model
  • openai-chat-model (current configuration target Groq)
• Support for embedding models:
  • in-memory-embedding-model-all-minilm-l6-v2
  • in-memory-embedding-model-all-minilm-l6-v2-q
  • in-memory-embedding-model-bge-small-en
  • in-memory-embedding-model-bge-small-en-q
  • in-memory-embedding-model-bge-small-en-v15
  • in-memory-embedding-model-bge-small-en-v15-q
  • in-memory-embedding-model-e5-small-v2
  • in-memory-embedding-model-e5-small-v2-q
  • ollama-embedding-model
• Support for embedding stores:
  • in-memory-embedding-store
  • neo4j-embedding-store
  • weaviate-embedding-store
• Support for content retriever for RAG:
  • default-embedding-content-retriever: default content retriever using an in-memory-embedding-store and in-memory-embedding-model-all-minilm-l6-v2 for embedding model.
  • web-search-engines

For more details on these you can take a look at LangChain4J and Smallrye-llm.

Using the WildFly AI Feature Pack

Provisioning of AI tools Galleon layers can be done in multiple ways according to the provisioning tooling in use.

Provisioning using CLI tool

You can download the latest Galleon CLI tool from the Galleon github project releases.

You need to define a Galleon provisioning configuration file such as:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<installation xmlns="urn:jboss:galleon:provisioning:3.0">
  <feature-pack location="org.wildfly:wildfly-galleon-pack:34.0.0.Final">
    <default-configs inherit="false"/>
    <packages inherit="false"/>
  </feature-pack>
  <feature-pack location="org.wildfly:wildfly-ai-galleon-pack:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT">
    <default-configs inherit="false"/>
    <packages inherit="false"/>
  </feature-pack>
  <config model="standalone" name="standalone.xml">
    <layers>
      <!-- Base layer -->
      <include name="cloud-server"/>
      <include name="ollama-chat-model"/>
      <include name="default-embedding-content-retriever"/>
    </layers>
  </config>
  <options>
    <option name="optional-packages" value="passive+"/>
    <option name="jboss-fork-embedded" value="true"/>
  </options>
</installation>

and provision it using the following command:

galleon.sh provision provisioning.xml --dir=my-wildfly-server

Provisioning using the WildFly Maven Plugin or the WildFly JAR Maven plugin

You need to include the datasources feature-pack and layers in the Maven Plugin configuration. This looks like:

...
<feature-packs>
  <feature-pack>
    <location>org.wildfly:wildfly-galleon-pack:34.0.0.Final</location>
  </feature-pack>
  <feature-pack>
    <location>org.wildfly:wildfly-ai-galleon-pack:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</location>
  </feature-pack>
</feature-packs>
<layers>
    <!-- layers may be used to customize the server to provision-->
    <layer>cloud-server</layer>
    <layer>ollama-chat-model</layer>
    <layer>default-embedding-content-retriever</layer>
    <!-- providing the following layers -->
    <!--
      <layer>in-memory-embedding-model-all-minilm-l6-v2</layer>
      <layer>in-memory-embedding-store</layer>
    -->
    <!-- Exisiting layers thart can be used -->
    <!--
      <layer>ollama-embedding-model</layer>
      <layer>openai-chat-model</layer>
      <layer>mistral-ai-chat-model</layer>
      <layer>neo4j-embedding-store</layer>
      <layer>weaviate-embedding-store</layer>
      <layer>web-search-engines</layer>
    -->
</layers>
...
