On November 18, during the 2025 OceanBase Annual Launch Event, OceanBase proudly announced the official release and open - sourcing of its first - ever AI database, SeekDB. This innovative database is designed to facilitate unified hybrid searches across various data types, including vector, full - text, scalar, and spatial - geographic data. It seamlessly integrates AI reasoning capabilities with data processing functions, creating a powerful synergy. Moreover, SeekDB boasts compatibility with more than 30 mainstream AI frameworks, such as Hugging Face and LangChain, making it a versatile tool in the AI landscape.

In terms of resource requirements, SeekDB is remarkably efficient. It can operate with a minimum of just 1 CPU core and 2GB of memory. Its user - friendly installation process supports one - click setup, and it can start up within seconds. This significantly reduces the engineering hurdles that developers often face when implementing AI applications. Furthermore, SeekDB is globally accessible as it is open - sourced under the Apache 2.0 license. This license grants developers the freedom to use, modify, and expand upon the database according to their specific needs.
