10. Vector Databases – Part 5 – SQL function to call External Embedding model
Brendan Tierney says, “There are several ways to create Vector embedding. In previous posts, I’ve provided some examples (see links below). These examples were externally created and then loaded into the database. But what if we want to do this internally in the database? We can use SQL and create a new vector embedding every time we insert or update a record.”
