PolyMemDB: A Polyglot Database System for AI Memory Management

Abstract:With the widespread adoption of personal intelligent agents, users generate massive, heterogeneous data during long-term interactions. Leveraging this data as long-term memory helps reduce token overhead and deliver personalized experiences. However, existing memory systems face two primary limitations: they rely on single-storage paradigms that fragment multi-dimensional data, and they lack fine-grained data provenance to resolve long-term factual conflicts, thereby worsening LLM hallucinations. In this demonstration, we introduce PolyMemDB, a novel system tailored for managing agent memory. PolyMemDB has a polyglot storage architecture designed to track and manage various memory types, including graph, vector, probability and spatial-temporal data. To ensure factual consistency and reduce hallucinations, it features a probabilistic inference engine that integrates temporal decay with semiring aggregation, resolving long-term factual conflicts, providing detailed data provenance, and enabling users to trace reasoning chains transparently.
