Vector Database solutions on AWS
When talking about Vector Databases, in the market we can find the specialized ones and multi-model, most of the major database providers like Oracle, PostgreSQL or MongoDB, for mention some of them, have integrated a specific solution to retrieve vector data.

Using pgvector To Locate Similarities In Enterprise Data
For this example, I wanted to focus on how pgvector – an open-source vector similarity search for Postgres – can be used to identify data similarities that exist in enterprise data.

Pg_vectorize: The simplest way to do vector search and RAG on Postgres
There's an issue in the pgvector repo about someone having several ~10-20million row tables and getting acceptable performance with the right hardware and some performance tuning: https://github.com/pgvector/pgvector/issues/455
I'm in the early stages of evaluating pgvector myself. but having used pinecone I currently am liking pgvector better because of it being open source. The indexing algorithm is clear, one can understand and modify the parameters. Furthermore the database is postgresql, not a proprietary document store. When the other data in the problem is stored relationally, it is very convenient to have the vectors stored like this as well. And postgresql has good observability and metrics. I think when it comes to flexibility for specialized applications, pgvector seems like the clear winner. But I can definitely see pinecone's appeal if vector search is not a core component of the problem/business, as it is very easy to use and scales very easily

Store embeddings in Azure Cosmos DB for PostgreSQL with pgvector
The pgvector extension adds vector similarity search capabilities to your PostgreSQL database. To use the extension, you have to first create it in your database. You can install the extension, by connecting to your database and running the CREATE EXTENSION command from the psql command prompt:

Ask HN: Has Anyone Trained a personal LLM using their personal notes?
I'm currently looking to implement locally, using QDrant [1] for instance.
I'm just playing around, but it makes sense to have a runnable example for our users at work too :) [2].
