# About The Oracle Private AI Services Container
The Private AI Services Container is a lightweight, containerized web service that provides a REST API for performing inference on AI models.
Using the AI Services Container allows you to offload expensive AI computation, such as vector embedding generation, outside of the database. This can free up database compute resources that can be used for indexing and similarity search.
