Data Management for Agentic Memory: Foundations, Systems, and Challenges
Summary: Tutorial framing agentic memory as a data-management problem: storing, retrieving, updating, and exploiting interaction histories across structured/unstructured data. Systematizes architectures, operators, storage, and optimization, while identifying database research challenges for adaptive lifelong agents. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Aug 28 2026)
