Technical Scenarios

Four reference architectures examined

NATIVE AI & AUTONOMOUS AGENTS

AI agents connected to PostgreSQL via the MCP protocol

Claude Desktop, Cursor, and custom agents querying the database without slow intermediary APIs.

Traditional bottleneck

In traditional AI architectures, connecting an LLM to a database requires a bespoke REST API layer prone to high latency and hard to secure without exposing superuser root credentials.

Architecture deployed on Aurabase

Aurabase natively integrates a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server coupled with PostgreSQL 16 and pgvector. Contexts and embeddings are indexed via HNSW directly in the database, while agent queries are bounded by Row-Level Security (RLS) policies tied to the user account.

Architectural Gains

Fragmented third-party stack vs Unified Aurabase architecture

Traditional fragmented approach

Multiplication of silos & vendor lock-in

  • ✕ Managed database hosted with a US hyperscaler subject to CLOUD Act extraterritoriality.
  • ✕ Separate vector database (Pinecone, Weaviate) creating dual writes and sync drift.
  • ✕ Node.js realtime engine subject to Garbage Collector pauses under high concurrency.
  • ✕ Fragmented billing, inter-cloud network latency, and multiplied attack surfaces.
Unified Aurabase architecture

A unified engine built in pure Rust & PostgreSQL

  • ✓ 100% European hosting (Scaleway Paris, Hetzner Germany/Finland) shielded from CLOUD Act.
  • ✓ Vector semantic search pgvector within the same ACID transaction.
  • ✓ High-performance Rust microservices and NATS JetStream streaming with sub-millisecond P99 latency.
  • ✓ Single consolidated invoice, zero inter-provider network latency, and full portability via pg_dump.
