The era of the "Specialized Vector Database" might be ending. 🐘
While everyone is chasing the latest AI tools, smart engineering teams are consolidating. The reality? pgvector is enough for 95% of RAG use cases.
Why introduce network latency and data egress fees when your embeddings can live right next to your relational data?
Simplicity scales better than complexity.
🎥 The full breakdown: https://youtube.com/shorts/-AUsHSjDLgg?feature=share
💡 For the first time I just submitted a proposal for a new (small) feature in #django ; it's related to #fulltextsearch in #postgresql , especially for non-English websites/webapps . You can use Github reactions to let me know what you think about it 😉

Diversity and inclusion make for a brighter community and a brighter future for everyone. Take a look at how our Diversity Committee incorporates that into our organization:
There use to be a website with a collection of #postgresql database dumps you could you use for #learning purpose free of charge. But I have lost the link. Anyone who potentially have?
