Are you spending too much time stitching together separate systems, adding immense complexity, and new points of failure? 🤔
Did you know there’s a way to avoid that?
During our latest webinar, @alejandro_du took a deep dive into MariaDB #AI RAG, a new component of MariaDB Enterprise Platform, designed to encapsulate the complete RAG lifecycle. 🔁
Catch all the action. https://t.co/BnXy3Kpito

Many enterprise DevOps teams are struggling to deploy frequently, increase test automation, and ensure reliable releases.
What can they learn from SaaS companies where developing and deploying software is part of their core operations?
#MariaDB’s developer relations engineer, @alejandro_du, shares his answer in @infoworld: https://t.co/ZWDJgkVFX2
🤓Wrote a short recap of some internal AI demos we ran at @MariaDB recently. Mostly around #SQL + #Vector search and spatial #RAG patterns.
