Database firms push data tech to cut token waste by AI agents
As AI companies shift from flat-rate plans to usage-based billing, operating costs for AI agents are rising sharply. Database companies are pushing infrastructure solutions designed to reduce token consumption, The Register reported. Vector database firm Pinecone launched Nexus, a knowledge engine that pre-arranges data structure and context. TigerData, developer of TimescaleDB, introduced Ghost, a database platform for AI agents billed by compute time rather than database count.
