An excellent blog by Adam Luciano on the new #vector capability in #MariaDB and the general state of matters in the quickly evolving universe of #AI and Vector #Databases - https://lnkd.in/d7i99p_g

As AI apps become mainstream, conventional IT wisdoms apply. AI apps must be no monoliths, but need to be logged, audited, and overall well integrated into normal IT. This means all AI data – vectors, input, output – is best stored in a normal RDBMS. Better still: In an open source database with performance, stability, and ease of use. Here is an overview of the AI opportunities, possibilities, methodologies, and features in MariaDB Server presented by Kaj Arnö at #SFSCON. https://lnkd.in/eVBPwY9Y #mariadb #database #ai #vectorsearch #data

Have you explored how Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and vector databases can take your AI applications to the next level? Robert Silén showcases a traditional RAG Q&A application powered by MariaDB Vector as the underlying vector store. Robert takes a systematic step by step approach. He explains what are the requirements to get a proper AI response. He also highlights the importance of providing relevant context from the database to reduce the chance of hallucinations. 💡 Check it out and see how you can stay ahead in the AI and database innovation curve: https://lnkd.in/d6RjHBpu #MariaDB #AI #VectorDatabases #RAG #TechInnovation

#MariaDB Server 11.7.1 is our Release Candidate featuring native #Vector search. We're excited for this release as we make MariaDB Server a key piece in the #AI infrastructure landscape. https://lnkd.in/ds-4qYuu
