+## Security Considerations
+
+When configuring memory storage:
+- Use environment variables for storage paths (e.g., `CREWAI_STORAGE_DIR`)
+- Never hardcode sensitive information like database credentials
+- Consider access permissions for storage directories
+- Use relative paths when possible to maintain portability
+
+Example using environment variables:
+```python
+import os
+from crewai import Crew
+from crewai.memory import LongTermMemory
+from crewai.memory.storage import LTMSQLiteStorage
+
+# Configure storage path using environment variable
+storage_path = os.getenv("CREWAI_STORAGE_DIR", "./storage")
+crew = Crew(
+    memory=True,
+    long_term_memory=LongTermMemory(
+        storage=LTMSQLiteStorage(
+            db_path="{storage_path}/memory.db".format(storage_path=storage_path)
+        )
+    )
+)
+```
+
+## Configuration Examples
+
+### Basic Memory Configuration
+```python
+from crewai import Crew
+from crewai.memory import LongTermMemory
+
+# Simple memory configuration
+crew = Crew(memory=True)  # Uses default storage locations
+```
+
+### Custom Storage Configuration
+```python
+from crewai import Crew
+from crewai.memory import LongTermMemory
+from crewai.memory.storage import LTMSQLiteStorage
+
+# Configure custom storage paths
+crew = Crew(
+    memory=True,
+    long_term_memory=LongTermMemory(
+        storage=LTMSQLiteStorage(db_path="./memory.db")
+    )
+)

+# Memory in CrewAI
+
+CrewAI provides a robust memory system that allows agents to retain and recall information from previous interactions.
+
+## Configuring Embedding Providers
+
+CrewAI supports multiple embedding providers for memory functionality:
+
+- OpenAI (default) - Requires `OPENAI_API_KEY`
+- Ollama - Requires `CREWAI_OLLAMA_URL` (defaults to "http://localhost:11434/api/embeddings")
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+Configure the embedding provider using these environment variables:
+
+- `CREWAI_EMBEDDING_PROVIDER`: Provider name (default: "openai")
+- `CREWAI_EMBEDDING_MODEL`: Model name (default: "text-embedding-3-small")
+- `CREWAI_OLLAMA_URL`: URL for Ollama API (when using Ollama provider)
+
+### Example Configuration
+
+```python
+# Using OpenAI (default)
+os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "your-api-key"
+
+# Using Ollama
+os.environ["CREWAI_EMBEDDING_PROVIDER"] = "ollama"
+os.environ["CREWAI_EMBEDDING_MODEL"] = "llama2"  # or any other model supported by your Ollama instance
+os.environ["CREWAI_OLLAMA_URL"] = "http://localhost:11434/api/embeddings"  # optional, this is the default
+```
+
+## Memory Usage
+
+When an agent has memory enabled, it can access and store information from previous interactions:
+
+```python
+agent = Agent(
+    role="Researcher",
+    goal="Research AI topics",
+    backstory="You're an AI researcher",
+    memory=True  # Enable memory for this agent
+)
+```
+
+The memory system uses embeddings to store and retrieve relevant information, allowing agents to maintain context across multiple interactions and tasks.
