Introducing Azure HorizonDB - PostgreSQL

Run enterprise Postgres workloads on Azure HorizonDB with around 3x the throughput of self-managed deployments — zone-resilient by default, no architectural trade-offs. Call AI models directly from SQL, build durable vector pipelines inside the database, and deliver high-accuracy similarity search at massive scale with DiskANN and AI re-ranking, all without leaving PostgreSQL. Debug and optimize queries faster with the Azure HorizonDB VS Code extension. Visualize execution plans, let Copilot generate fixes, and clone production data to test environments in seconds. Charles Feddersen, PostgreSQL Partner Director PM, shares how to put all of it to work on Azure. ► QUICK LINKS:  00:00 - Azure HorizonDB features 00:57 - Open-source PostgreSQL 02:24 - How it works 03:37 - Performance 04:51 - Enterprise-ready security 05:34 - Memory & storage work together 06:29 - AI Model Management + AI Functions 08:24 - AI Pipelines 09:50 - DiskANN + AI Re-ranking 10:50 - VS Code Extension + Data Cloning 12:31 - Wrap up ► Link References Check out our blog at https://aka.ms/azurepostgresblog ► Unfamiliar with Microsoft Mechanics?
