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.
Read guideGuide
Knowledge Graph Memory
Learn how graph memory keeps documents, entities, citations, users, and decisions connected for AI agents and GraphRAG workflows.

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

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

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.
Read guideGuide
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.
