AI Accelerator - Pipelines 2.2.1 release notes

Released: 13 March 2025

In this release, we're introducing our second Pipeline Data Preparation, also known as "Preparer." Our first Pipeline, the "Retriever," launched with the initial release of AIDB, enabling automated embedding computation, semantic search, and RAG support.

These predefined Pipelines are at the core of AIDB, providing end-to-end automation for common AI application workflows. With the addition of Preparer, we expand this automation further—allowing data to be pre-processed and optimized for use in Pipelines like the Retriever.

As always, we also include enhancements to existing functionality.

Highlights

  • The new Data Preparation Pipeline allows automated chunking, parsing and summarizing of data to make it ready for use in AI Applications.

Features

DescriptionAddresses
Introduced Preparer, A New Pipeline for Data Preparation

The new Preparer Pipeline supports automated chunking, parsing and summarizing of data to make it ready for use in AI Applications.

Enhancements

DescriptionAddresses
Added support for HTTP basic authentication in OpenAI Model adapters

The OpenAI Model Adapters (e.g. completions or embeddings) now support "HTTP Basic authentication" via the credential field basic_auth. Previously, only "Bearer authentication" via api_key was supported.

Added a Postgresql view for configured Models

The Models configured in AIDB can now be listed as a view aidb.models rather than needing a function call as before (aidb.list_models()).

Added autodetection for Model dimensions when using external Models over an API

Model dimensions for external models (via e.g. completions or embeddings model adapter) no longer need to be explicitly configured. AIDB will now auto-detect the number of dimensions of the returned embeddings/vectors.
