VDB

Vector Database

A specialized database storing embeddings, which are numerical representations of content meaning. Enables fast search for semantically similar documents, images, or text fragments for RAG and recommendation systems.

Why it matters

Enables searching by meaning, not by exact words: a query for 'promotion budget' will find a document about 'campaign costs'. It's the engine behind RAG and semantic search.

What's missing without it

Without a vector database, search only sees literal words — synonyms and paraphrases are lost, and the AI assistant has no context to draw from.

When it is used

In semantic search, AI assistants relying on proprietary knowledge, and recommendation systems for similar content.

How we use it

Finding similar articles and documentation fragments before the AI assistant responds.
