Learn to create tables with vector columns and insert embedding data directly into your PostgreSQL database.
Storing Vectors in PostgreSQL
Welcome back! In the previous lesson, we set up pgvector. Now, let's get practical and learn how to store actual vector embeddings in your PostgreSQL database.
This lesson covers creating tables with vector columns and inserting embedding data.
PostgreSQL Tables Reminder
Before storing vectors, let's quickly recall how tables work in PostgreSQL. You use the CREATE TABLE statement to define your table's structure, including column names and their data types.
With pgvector installed, we gain a new, powerful data type!
