From Complex to Simple: How We Built seekdb for the AI Era
- AI applications don't need another heavy enterprise database — they need unified multi-modal storage (scalar + vector + text + JSON + GIS), true hybrid search in a single query, and built-in AI functions (embed, rerank, complete), all behind a MySQL-compatible SQL interface.
