  • Medallion Architecture

    The Medallion Architecture is a data lakehouse architecture pattern popularized by Databricks. It’s designed to progressively refine data through a series of layers, ensuring data quality and suitability for various downstream consumption needs. The name “Medallion” refers to the distinct quality levels achieved at each layer, similar to how medals signify different levels of achievement.… Read more

  • Data Lake vs. Data Lakehouse: Understanding Modern Data Architectures

    Organizations today grapple with ever-increasing volumes and varieties of data. To effectively store, manage, and analyze this data, different architectural approaches have emerged. Two prominent concepts in this landscape are the data lake and the data lakehouse. While both aim to provide a centralized data repository, they differ significantly in their design principles and capabilities.… Read more

  • k-NN (k-Nearest Neighbors) search in OpenSearch

    To perform a k-NN (k-Nearest Neighbors) search in OpenSearch after loading your manuals (or any documents) as vector embeddings, you’ll use the knn query within the OpenSearch search API. Here’s how you can do it: Understanding the knn Query The knn query in OpenSearch allows you to find the k most similar vectors to a… Read more
