good to start Vector fundamentals.

By Sagar Wanojwar on 3/23/2026

Good course for Vector databases. Got a lot of doubts cleared with this tutorial. Short and simple. Thank you for this course.

By Faisal Saeed on 1/23/2026

It was clear and easy to understand. Provide a good understanding of what a Vector database really!

By Priyam Keswani on 1/7/2026

All critical concepts , may be basic for some, were explained by setting context before jumping to their definition

By Andrew Sandrini Vaz on 10/20/2025

Very good to understand better thr role of vector databases in AI and how they work. This oiurse was very eye-opening for me and I believe it's a must for anyone that wants to work in this area. The explanations are clear and easy to understand.

By David Truxall on 5/13/2025

This is a very good overview course. The explanations are clear, the diagrams are good. I feel I have a good grip on Vector search and the components necessary. I would have liked more in-depth information around embedding models, but that does not detract from the goal of the course.

By Vinod on 1/17/2025

What i found interesting about this course is that how the author gracefully explains concepts and connection between them with easy explanation which reduced the strain of understanding the concepts for me.

By Edwin Stawasz on 1/9/2025

Share your opinion about the quality of this course (optional) Vector Databases are an important subject for anyone wanting to learn about AI, and the instructor does an extremely good job of explaining the subject a a level that is understandable and not overly complex.

By Michael Mazurek on 12/25/2024

Really a great practical explanation on Vectors, how they work, why they are valuable in the evolution of AI!

By Sadre Alam on 12/18/2024

I was looking for just introduction of data vectorization. This course is great and more than my expectations.
