Great write up, especially agree on pgvector with small (ideally fine tuned) embeddings. There’s so much complexity that comes with keeping your vector db in sync with you main db (especially once you start filtering with metadata). 90% of gen AI apps don’t need it.

Ohh do you speak from experience? I know I will likely never do this, but curious how did you do it? When I looked into this, I found that Airbyte has something to connect the vector db with the main db, but I never bit that bullet (thankfully)
