Vector databases have seen an increase in popularity due to the rise of Generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs). Vector databases can be used in tandem with LLMs for Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) - i.e. a framework for improving the quality of LLM responses by grounding prompts with context from external systems. What is Chroma DB? Chroma is an open-source embedding database that enables retrieving relevant information for LLM prompting.
