Abstract	Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has reshaped natural language processing by integrating external databases for knowledge retrieval and performing sequence-to-sequence generation. It improves the accuracy and relevance of responses in knowledge-intensive tasks. This review explores recent advances in RAG, focusing on novel frameworks, industry applications, and associated challenges. We examine innovations such as Mixture-Embedding and Confident RAG, multimodal and knowledge graph-based systems, and domain-specific applications in education, nutrition, and space industries. Additionally, we analyze RAG's execution flow, evaluation metrics, and enterprise implementations, highlighting its ability to access proprietary data securely. Technical, system-level, and ethical challenges, including retrieval quality, latency, privacy, and bias, are discussed alongside potential solutions. This review underscores RAG's potential to revolutionize AI applications while identifying critical areas for future research.
