Intelligent Search: Data Stores for Gen AI Apps

Data stores are the workhorses behind Vertex AI Search applications, recommendations engines, and many generative AI applications. They allow your generative AI agents to ground their responses on your data. With data stores that allow you to connect to unstructured documents in file storage, structured data in databases, email, chat, ticketing systems, calendars, and more, from both Google and other third-party providers, there is enormous potential in mastering these tools. Follow this learning path to learn about data store types, data access controls, and several ways to query data stores to enable you to easily build many useful generative AI applications.
