Your database is more powerful than you think. Learn how built-in vector capabilities can power your GenAI applications and save you from the hassle of adopting a new database. The heart of Generative AI (GenAI) workloads rely on the ability of computers to categorize and understand the world's data (images, sounds, text) as numerical representations called vectors. This is achieved through a process called "embedding," where a model translates the data into vectors.

Aiven offers managed Valkey, an open source NoSQL database compatible with legacy OSS Redis* perfect for caching, message queues, and more. Today ‍Aiven is launching Aiven for Valkey to give customers a fully open source Redis alternative. Aiven for Caching will remain available to existing customers, but due to recent Redis licensing changes, it will remain on Redis 7.2.4. Valkey is a fork of OSS Redis, version 7.2.5, maintained by the Linux Foundation and is fully backwards compatible with Redis.

Aiven offers two powerful in-memory data stores - Aiven for Dragonfly and Aiven for Caching. In this post we help you make the optimal choice for your project. Speed is essential in the world of data access. When milliseconds matter, choosing the right in-memory data store can make or break your application's performance. This article delves into a head-to-head comparison of two prominent contenders that Aiven offers: Aiven for Dragonfly and Aiven for Caching.

Discover the two simple steps you can take to secure your open source dependency chain. Open-source software (OSS) has become the backbone of modern software development, empowering developers with a vast ecosystem of freely available libraries, frameworks and tools. However, as the old saying goes, ‘there's no such thing as a free lunch’, and the over reliance on OS components introduces significant security risks that can compromise the entire software supply chain.

Increase database performance by 10x with an expert, AI-driven, professional available 24/7. An efficient data infrastructure is a vital component in building & operating scalable and performant applications that are widely adopted, satisfy customers, and ultimately, drive business growth. Unfortunately, the speed of new feature delivery coupled with a lack of database optimization knowledge is exposing organizations to high risk performance issues.

Changing regulations are requiring FSIs to increase their resilience and protect their operations and customers against misadventure or attack.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is advancing rapidly. Much quicker than businesses can accommodate, which is leaving enterprises reeling. They’re struggling to keep up and take advantage because they’re an oil tanker in a speed boat race. But neglecting AI isn’t an option either.

Infrastructure Architects can now easily set up and run Aiven services in their own AWS account with simplified migrations and expanded flexibility. In today’s world, organizations are under pressure to optimize their cloud costs while owning their critical data. While innovation is a priority, finding optimal solutions, and options can be limited when compliance requirements often restrict third parties that can deliver business value from accessing critical business data.

Enabling secure and performant multi-tenant analytics for your PostgreSQL® deployments on Aiven's data platform. In the realm of multi-tenant Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications, managing a centralized PostgreSQL® database for multiple customers can present challenges in maintaining secure segregation of their data. While a single database offers infrastructure efficiency, it becomes crucial to ensure each organization has isolated access and control over their information.
