AI & Data

AI & Data Services

Turn your organization's data into trustworthy AI capabilities - with secure data platforms, retrieval-augmented generation and the infrastructure to run them reliably.

AI is a data problem first

Generative AI models are powerful, but on their own they know nothing about your customers, products, contracts or procedures. The value comes from connecting models to accurate, current and properly secured business data - and that is where most AI initiatives succeed or stall.

AVRIN brings nearly two decades of database and data engineering experience to AI projects. We help you identify practical use cases, prepare and govern the data, choose between cloud AI services and self-hosted models, and build solutions that respect existing security and compliance controls.

We favor small, measurable pilots that prove value quickly and then scale on a platform your team can operate - rather than large experiments that never reach production.

What we deliver

Generative AI solutions

Assistants, document summarization, knowledge search, classification and data extraction using Azure OpenAI, Amazon Bedrock, Google Vertex AI or open models - integrated into your applications and workflows.

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)

RAG retrieves relevant passages from your documents and databases and passes them to the model, so answers are grounded in your data, cite sources and respect user permissions.

Vector databases & search

Embeddings stored and searched in SQL Server 2025's native vector type, PostgreSQL with pgvector, Azure AI Search, Amazon OpenSearch or dedicated vector stores - chosen for your scale and existing platform.

AI-ready data platforms

Clean, well-modeled and governed data in lakehouses and warehouses - Databricks, Snowflake, Microsoft Fabric or SQL Server - with catalogs, lineage and access controls that AI solutions can rely on.

AI data pipelines

Pipelines that extract, clean, chunk and embed content, keep vectors in sync with source changes, and feed features to machine learning models - monitored like any production workload.

AI infrastructure

Right-sized GPU and CPU compute, storage and networking in the cloud or on-premises, model hosting and serving, observability, and cost management for inference and training workloads.

How RAG works

Grounded answers from your own data

  1. Prepare

    Documents and records are cleaned, split into chunks and converted to embeddings.

  2. Store

    Embeddings are stored in a vector index with metadata and access permissions.

  3. Retrieve

    Each question is embedded and matched to the most relevant chunks the user is allowed to see.

  4. Generate

    The model answers using the retrieved context and cites its sources.

SQL Server 2025 for AI workloads

SQL Server 2025 introduces a native VECTOR data type and VECTOR_DISTANCE function, with DiskANN-based vector indexes available in preview. Teams can keep embeddings next to relational data and reuse existing security, backup and high availability.

Responsible and secure AI

  • Data classification and protection of sensitive information before it reaches a model
  • Permission-aware retrieval so users only see what they are authorized to see
  • Prompt-injection and data-leakage safeguards
  • Logging, evaluation and human review for high-impact decisions
  • Clear policies on which data may be used with which AI services

Our approach

  1. Discover

    Prioritize use cases by value, feasibility and risk.

  2. Prepare

    Assess data quality, access and governance gaps.

  3. Pilot

    Build a focused solution and measure answer quality.

  4. Scale

    Harden, monitor and roll out on a supportable platform.
