Gain expertise in using vector databases and improve your data retrieval skills in this hands-on course!
During the course, you’ll explore the fundamental principles of similarity search and vector databases, learn how they differ from traditional databases, and discover their importance in recommendation systems and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) applications. You’ll also dive into key concepts such as vector operations and database architecture to develop a strong grasp of Chroma DB's functionality.
You’ll gain practical experience using Chroma DB, a leading vector database solution. And through interactive labs, you’ll learn to create collections, manage embeddings, and perform similarity searches with real-world datasets.
You’ll then apply what you’ve learned by creating a real-world recommendation system powered by Chroma DB and an embedding model from Hugging Face; an ideal project to demonstrate your understanding of how vector databases improve search and retrieval in AI-driven applications.
If you’re keen to gain expertise in using vector databases and similarity searches, both essential components of the RAG pipeline, then enroll today!

Following these labs which are written in Skills Network Labs is a bit cumbersome. Jupyter Notebooks were much easier to follow in previous courses.

I would say the course and especially the readings and questions are mainly AI generated. The topics are clearly layed out, but the questions are just randomly associated with those topics and do not contribute to any understanding.
