Memory and context
OpenSearch provides intelligent memory and context management systems that enable AI agents to maintain persistent knowledge and conversation context across sessions.
Memory systems
OpenSearch offers two complementary memory approaches:
-
Agentic memory: An intelligent memory system that uses large language models (LLMs) to extract insights, learn user preferences, and maintain contextual knowledge across agent interactions.
-
Context management: A structured approach to managing conversation context and system state for AI agents and applications.
