Overall Satisfaction with Astra DB

We mainly use Astra DB Vector databases for our internal and customer support chatbots. The internal chatbot uses a database with more critical data and is therefore, separated from the customer facing chatbot.

Pros

  • Very fast vector search
  • Easily configurable
  • Great and very responsive customer support

Cons

  • Copying of databases and relocating them is not possible
  • Our response time on first level support tickets has decreased by 20%
  • Time for internal information search has decreased by 10%
Astra DB abstracted the entire infrastructure part so that our developers could focus on the AI application. We did not need to attend trainings and conferences about the internals of vector databases. They just work. Overall, it made the experience of writing a RAG chatbot very comfortable.
We never experienced outages and never ran into performance issues. It just works.
Astra DB allowed us running a database without going deep into the configuration hell. It scales with our usage and therefore, there was no need to learn the sepcialities of a vector database.
