The rise of AI agents is no longer theoretical—enterprises are already deploying them at scale, and Zilliz Cloud is quietly becoming the infrastructure that makes it possible.
Zilliz, the company behind the open-source Milvus vector database, announced today that its managed platform, Zilliz Cloud, is enabling companies like Verbaflo.ai and Rexera to operationalize AI agents across thousands of workflows. The pitch? Near-instant retrieval, contextual understanding, and human-grade interaction—without the bloat of legacy chatbot systems.
From Chatbots to AI Coworkers
While many companies are still playing catch-up with GenAI, others are already embedding it into daily operations. Verbaflo.ai, for example, is using Zilliz Cloud to run AI agents that respond to real estate queries via voice, chat, and email—24/7. These aren’t glorified FAQs; they’re full-service assistants managing communications and logistics across multiple channels.
Rexera, a major AI player in real estate, is taking things even further. Its AI agents—powered by Zilliz—are automating closing processes at scale, completing over 10,000 tasks per day and processing millions of pages monthly for more than 350 real estate firms.
The common thread? These systems are not just built on LLMs—they’re structured on vector databases, which allow AI agents to maintain memory, understand nuance, and retrieve relevant data in milliseconds.
Why Vector Databases Matter
Think of vector databases like the memory palace of an AI agent. Instead of keyword-matching like traditional databases, vector databases map and retrieve information based on semantic meaning. This makes them ideal for powering AI agents that need to respond contextually, not just accurately.
Zilliz Cloud provides a managed, scalable solution for this vector-first architecture—essentially the real-time memory bank behind next-gen AI agents. As more enterprises pivot from basic automation to intelligent, conversational agents, Zilliz is positioning itself as the cloud-native backbone they can’t afford to ignore.
Beyond the Hype: Real Business Impact
The enterprise AI agent boom isn’t just another tech cycle buzzword. It’s a response to market demand for hyper-personalized, always-on digital service—without hiring a battalion of human reps. What’s new is that the tech has finally caught up to the ambition.
Unlike chatbots of the past, which often relied on scripted logic and hit-or-miss NLP, today’s AI agents—fueled by LLMs and contextual retrieval systems like Zilliz Cloud—can maintain state, learn from interactions, and scale like software.
The Bigger Picture
As companies race to automate customer engagement, internal operations, and industry-specific workflows, Zilliz Cloud is becoming part of a critical AI stack alongside vector-aware retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), custom LLMs, and orchestration frameworks.
And with open-source Milvus at its core, Zilliz offers flexibility for organizations that want both speed and control. It’s an interesting contrast to larger cloud hyperscalers that lock customers into sprawling proprietary ecosystems.
