Abstract

Curious about how to build AI applications with the tools you already know and love? This beginner-friendly session will show you how PostgreSQL can be the backbone of your AI workloads. We’ll break down key concepts like vector embeddings, vector search, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) in a simple, easy-to-understand way. Then, we’ll dive into how PostgreSQL’s native features and extensions make it easy to store, search, and scale AI data — no special infrastructure needed. Best of all, you'll see everything come to life through a hands-on, step-by-step demo where we’ll build a complete, Generative AI application powered entirely by PostgreSQL.
