For all their technical capabilities, large language models (LLMs) still have a memory problem. They can lack the ability to retain context across conversations, and don’t always contain the frameworks to let them access relevant data, ultimately making their results unreliable and untrustworthy. NoSQL database pioneer MongoDB is taking on this problem, releasing new persistent memory, retrieval, embedding, and re-ranking features, all integrated into one platform. The company is also introducing new security connectivity, open-source plugins, and other framework integrations to support agentic AI workloads. Supporting agentic memory “Unlocking the power of agents requires memory,” Pete Johnson, MongoDB’s field CTO of AI, said during a press briefing. “Just like human memory, a good agentic memory organizes knowledge. It helps agents retrieve the right knowledge based on context and learn to make smarter decisions and take optimized actions over time.” To advance automated retrieval an
