🏷️ Labels: Chromadb, Memory Management, Python, Embedding, Vector Store
📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal

The session aimed to address common Python errors, optimize memory management in ChromaDB, and improve the embedding process for daily logs.

Key Activities

• Fixed Common Python Errors: Addressed LSFS and UTF-8 encoding issues with immediate fixes and code snippets.
• Memory Management in ChromaDB: Clarified roles of PersistentMemoryManager, StorageManager, and ChromaDB, and outlined a structured approach for saving MemoryNote objects using Python’s pickle.
• Vector Store Setup: Recommended FAISS for managing 100K documents with fast retrieval capabilities.
• Context Logs Library Architecture: Designed a modular architecture for context log ingestion and semantic retrieval.
• Final Setup for ChromaDB: Finalized the setup for ChromaDB with a focus on efficient logging and embedding practices.
• Modular Function for Embedding Logs: Developed a modular function for embedding daily logs with a pluggable backend.
• Embedding Notes into ChromaDB: Identified and fixed a missing step in the register_embedding() function.

Achievements

• Resolved Python errors related to LSFS and UTF-8.
• Enhanced understanding and implementation of memory management in ChromaDB.
• Improved the embedding process for daily logs.

Pending Tasks

• Further testing of the new embedding function.
• Monitoring the performance of the optimized ChromaDB setup.
