Guides

Build AI-native applications on structured memory.

Learn how graph relationships, semantic search, live schema, GraphRAG, MCP tools, and AI agent memory work against real operational data. High-intent guides keep each concept practical and connected to the relevant implementation path.

Start with the concept you need to evaluate.

Each guide links back to the relevant RushDB feature pages, use-case pages, and documentation.

Guide

AI Agent Memory

Learn how persistent AI agent memory stores decisions, tool output, entities, and relationships outside a single model session.

Guide

Knowledge Graph Memory

Learn how graph memory keeps documents, entities, citations, users, and decisions connected for AI agents and GraphRAG workflows.

Guide

Vector Database vs Memory Layer

Compare vector databases and memory layers for AI agents. Learn when semantic search is enough and when records, relationships, and schema are needed.

Read guide

Guide

GraphRAG vs Traditional RAG

Compare GraphRAG and traditional vector-only RAG: retrieval quality, explainability, multi-hop reasoning, and operational complexity.

Guide

JSON to Graph Database

Turn nested JSON into a queryable graph without designing a schema first. See how property types, parent-child links, and live schema are inferred on write.

Guide

MCP Memory Backend

Use RushDB as a persistent memory backend behind the Model Context Protocol. Give Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other MCP clients durable, queryable agent memory.

Guide

Semantic + Relational Retrieval

Combine meaning-based semantic search with exact relational filters and graph relationships in one query, instead of stitching together separate systems.

Guide

Types Of AI Agent Memory

Learn the three practical types of AI agent memory — episodic, semantic, and procedural — and how to model each as records in a durable memory layer.

Guide

Ontology-Aware Querying

Let agents query using the real labels, properties, and relationship paths in your data, discovered from a live schema instead of a hand-maintained ontology doc.

Guide

Multi-Hop Analytics

Analyze relationships several hops deep — supplier to product to warehouse, or account to device to alert — without hand-writing a chain of SQL joins.

Guide

Graph Analytics

What graph analytics is, when it beats row-based analytics, and how it applies to fraud detection, customer 360, supply chains, and AI agent reasoning.
