Project Title

postgresml — Postgres with GPUs for ML/AI applications

Overview

PostgresML is an open-source Postgres extension that enables machine learning and AI operations directly within PostgreSQL, leveraging GPU acceleration for faster computations and model inference. It seamlessly combines data storage and machine learning inference within your database, eliminating the need for separate systems and data transfers.

Key Features

In-Database ML/AI: Run machine learning and AI operations directly within PostgreSQL
GPU Acceleration: Leverage GPU power for faster computations and model inference
Large Language Models: Integrate and use state-of-the-art LLMs from Hugging Face
RAG Pipeline: Built-in functions for chunking, embedding, ranking, and transforming text
Vector Search: Efficient similarity search using pgvector integration

Use Cases

Data Scientists: Perform ML operations directly on data where it resides, without moving data to models
Enterprises: Leverage GPU acceleration for faster ML computations and model inference
Developers: Integrate state-of-the-art LLMs from Hugging Face into their applications
Researchers: Utilize the RAG pipeline for natural language processing tasks

Advantages

Enhanced data privacy by keeping models and data together
8-40X faster inference compared to HTTP-based model serving
Support for millions of transactions per second and horizontal scaling
Works with existing PostgreSQL tools and client libraries

Limitations / Considerations

Requires a Postgres database with the pgml extension installed
May have limitations in terms of supported ML algorithms and models compared to specialized ML platforms

TensorFlow: A popular open-source ML library, but requires data to be moved to models instead of models to data
PyTorch: Another widely-used ML library, with similar data movement limitations
Hugging Face Transformers: A library for state-of-the-art NLP models, but lacks direct integration with databases
