Firestore for Image Embeddings

In my previous Firestore for Text Embedding and Similarity Search post, I talked about how Firestore and LangChain can help you to store text embeddings and do similarity searches against them. With multimodal embedding models, you can generate embeddings not only for text but for images and video as well. In this post, I will show you how to store image embeddings in Firestore and later use them for similarity search. Read More →

Firestore for Text Embedding and Similarity Search

In my previous Persisting LLM chat history to Firestore post, I showed how to persist chat messages in Firestore for more meaningful and context-aware conversations. Another common requirement in LLM applications is to ground responses in data for more relevant answers. For that, you need embeddings. In this post, I want to talk specifically about text embeddings and how Firestore and LangChain can help you to store text embeddings and do similarity searches against them. Read More →

Persisting LLM chat history to Firestore

Firestore has long been my go-to NoSQL backend for my serverless apps. Recently, it’s becoming my go-to backend for my LLM powered apps too. In this series of posts, I want to show you how Firestore can help for your LLM apps. In the first post of the series, I want to talk about LLM powered chat applications. I know, not all LLM apps have to be chat based apps but a lot of them are because LLMs are simply very good at chat based communication. Read More →

Creating Workflows that pause and wait for events

In Workflows, it’s easy to chain various services together into an automated workflow. For some use cases, you might need to pause workflow execution and wait for some input. This input could be a human approval or an external service calling back with data needed to complete the workflow. ​​With Workflows callbacks, a workflow can create an HTTP endpoint and pause execution until it receives an HTTP callback to that endpoint.
