Summary
Jiacheng Hou is a software developer with nine years of experience focusing on database connectivity, .NET data access, and AI-driven vector search, currently building data access tools at Oracle in Toronto. He leads development of ODP.NET and vector connectors that bring Oracle Database into .NET AI stacks—enabling vector similarity search for RAG scenarios and improving LLM accuracy via Semantic Kernel integration. His work also spans multi-cloud configuration and credential providers for OCI and AWS, simplifying secure, centralized deployments across environments. Comfortable at the intersection of databases, .NET, and AI, he combines systems-level performance engineering with practical integrations that accelerate enterprise adoption of vectorized data. An alumnus of UC Riverside, he quietly bridges enterprise-grade database drivers with cutting-edge AI tooling rather than chasing flashy product front-ends.
