Vector databases have become a core component of modern AI systems, enabling semantic search, recommendation engines, and retrieval-augmented generation pipelines. By storing high-dimensional embeddings, vector databases allow applications to retrieve information based on meaning rather than keywords.
This mentor-led programme introduces the fundamental concepts behind vector search and embedding-based retrieval systems. Participants explore how embeddings are created, how vector similarity works, and how vector databases support scalable semantic search applications.
Through practical scenarios, learners implement simple vector search pipelines and integrate them with AI applications. By the end of the course, participants will understand how vector databases support production systems such as AI assistants, recommendation engines, and knowledge retrieval platforms.
