# LaserData Docs

> Documentation for LaserData Cloud and Laser SDK. Laser SDK lets agents and services exchange messages, share state and memory, and keep a durable, replayable record of every session, on one log. It has clients for Rust, Python, and TypeScript and runs on Apache Iggy, locally with Laser Stack or in production on LaserData Cloud. LaserData Cloud deploys and operates Apache Iggy as a managed service, in your own cloud account, or on your own infrastructure.

Every page is listed below with its URL and description. The full text of every page is at https://docs.laserdata.com/llms-full.txt.

## Laser SDK

### Get started

- [Laser SDK](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk): Let agents and services message each other, share state and memory, and keep a replayable record of their work
- [Quickstart](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/quickstart): Start a server, install the SDK, and have one agent answer another
- [Concepts](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/concepts): The few ideas behind Laser SDK: streams, topics, partitions, agents, sessions, and the managed plane
- [AI agents](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/ai-agents): How coding agents and LLMs read these docs and build with Laser SDK

### Guides

- [Agents](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/fabric): Run agents that take requests, reply, and find each other by capability
- [Sessions](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/session): Record every agent interaction as a durable session you can inspect, replay, and control
- [Messages](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/log): Publish typed messages to a topic, read them back, and process them live in a consumer group
- [Memory](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/memory): Remember facts for an agent or a user, recall them from any agent, and trace each one back to the log
- [Context](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/context): Assemble a bounded, prompt-ready history of one conversation or session
- [Key-value state](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/state): Keyed values that agents read and update together, with versions, expiry, and compare-and-swap
- [Queries and views](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/views): Keep a queryable table of a topic and read it with filters, sorting, and paging
- [Changes](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/change-feed): Get told when a view advances, so you query only when there is new data
- [Graph](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/graph): Store the entities your agents see and how they relate, then walk, search, and read those relationships at any past time
- [Filters](https://docs.laserdata.com/laser-sdk/consumer-filters): Let the server send each consumer group only the messages it needs
