Pinecone Tackles Threat Detection, 'Extreme Classification' with New Vector Database

Pinecone Systems is demonstrating how vector databases in the cloud offer a fast and scalable way to develop critical business capabilities, powered by machine learning, such as IT threat detection and the complex classifications and recommendations of big data.

Pinecone has released templates to help developers and technical teams build and deploy applications that address four common scenarios with the scale and performance advantages of a vector database. And Pinecone is providing a benchmark guide that can be used to assess the vector database’s performance using an organization’s own data sets.

The use cases are an important step forward because vector databases are relatively new in the world of cloud databases. A vector database stores, searches, and retrieves vectors, which are long strings of numbers representing documents, images, and other data types used in machine learning applications. They can be used for recommendations, personalization, image search, and more.
