Quanta Live: Building Local AI Search with pgvector & LangChain4j - Part 2
Building Quanta (Part 2) – Vector Search with Quarkus, pgvector & OllamaIn this session, we’re diving deep into the brains of Quanta — the part that makes it...

In this session we:
🧩 Extracted text with Apache Tika
🧠 Created embeddings using Ollama (LLaMA 3.2)
💾 Stored them in PostgreSQL with pgvector
🔍 Queried files semantically with Quarkus and LangChain4j

And it works beautifully.

Thanks very much, Catherine!
It will be a lot of fun, no matter the outcome 🤦🏻‍♂️🤓

Is there a place with "best-practice-guardrails" or something similar? It seems like an awful chore to think of every possible unwanted in- and output and put that into code...

It looks like you changed passwords since the leak: I tried to login to localhost:8080 with password "pw", but access was denied 😂

Good for you! :)

What would you add next, smarter summaries, multi-agent explorers, or something wild?

Quanta tracks file changes, re-vectorizes updates, and returns instant, intelligent answers; all locally.
We debugged Quarkus quirks, Tika headaches, and got Ollama humming 💪

Under the hood:
⚡ Next.js (frontend)
☕ Quarkus + LangChain4j (backend brains)
🦙 Ollama (LLaMA 3.2 embeddings)
🐘 PostgreSQL + pgvector
📄 Apache Tika for text extraction from any file type

Happy birthday Catherine! :)

Thanks! I am unsure about PostgreSQL with pgvector, but since i have the most experience with it, i'm willing to try ^^
Why did you choose PostgreSQL, if you did?
