FAQ

Questions DataStax Astra DB owners ask.

  • 01

    Can my AI agent do similarity searches across vector embeddings?

    Yes. Ask the agent to find documents related to a specific vector array in your target collection. The agent natively passes the numerical array directly into Astra DB's ANN engine, instantly returning the top semantically matched documents.

  • 02

    Does this work like standard Cassandra or is it strictly vector-only?

    Both. While it excels at vector searches, the integration fully supports standard NoSQL JSON documents. You can insert, find, count, and delete standard text documents using strict JSON filters just like regular database operations.

  • 03

    Can I switch seamlessly between different collections?

    Absolutely. Just mention the target collection by name in your prompts, and the agent adapts flawlessly. If you forget which ones exist, you can instruct it to list all available collections within your default namespace anytime.
