AI-powered adaptive applications FAQ

Get quick answers to AI questions.

  • What is vector search?

    A technique for data retrieval where objects (text, images, and videos) are represented as vectors (arrays of numbers) and objects are matched via similar numerical characteristics.

  • What are predictive and generative AI?

    Predictive AI is designed to forecast outcomes based on historical data and real-time analysis. Generative AI creates new content that mimics original data, often for natural language conversations.

  • What are applicable use cases for generative AI?

    Common use cases include hyper-personalized content generation, chatbot Q&A, enhanced enterprise search, hybrid search, and data analysis.

  • What is an AI-powered application?

    Agentic and other AI-powered applications combine user information, real-time contextual data, predictive calculations, and NLP GenAI to deliver hyper-personalized experiences with the power of LLMs.

  • Why use a multipurpose database for AI?

    Using more than one database adds complexity, latency, expense, and management burdens. Couchbase’s multipurpose database simplifies your development, improves performance, and lowers costs.

  • Why is Couchbase so fast?

    Couchbase delivers high performance with in-memory processing, efficient indexing, and a scalable distributed architecture. It also ensures data durability and supports complex SQL++ queries.
