About Weaviate
Weaviate pushes from vector database toward agent-facing retrieval and memory infrastructure.
Weaviate's feed is a genuine engineering blog that mixes dated releases with technical deep-dives. The recent window is dense with real movement: the 1.38 release takes the built-in MCP Server and a disk-based vector index to GA, Engram (managed agent memory) reaches GA, Weaviate Cloud gains a free tier, and Cloud RBAC expands. The throughline is a deliberate move up the stack from storage toward agent infrastructure.
