Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases automate the RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipeline — semantic search, chunking, embedding, and context injection into Claude or other foundation models. This guide covers setup, data ingestion, cost optimization, and production patterns.
Amazon S3 Vectors eliminates the dedicated vector database for many RAG workloads. We compare it to OpenSearch Serverless and MemoryDB and show when each wins.
ElastiCache loses your AI chatbot's session memory at every node replacement. MemoryDB doesn't. A decision framework for when to pick MemoryDB over ElastiCache, OpenSearch Serverless, and S3 Vectors for AI workloads — with the latency math and the failure mode that forces the switch.
