About This Event
A deep-dive summit for engineers building AI-powered applications with vector search at their core. Covers the fundamentals of embedding generation, approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) algorithms, HNSW and IVF indexing, hybrid search combining vector and keyword retrieval, and production deployment patterns with pgvector, Qdrant, Weaviate, and Milvus. Learn how to tune recall vs. latency trade-offs, manage vector lifecycles, and integrate vector databases into existing data infrastructure.
