  We study supergravity backgrounds encoded through the gauge/string
correspondence by the SU(N) \times SU(N) theory arising on N D3-branes on the
conifold. As discussed in hep-th/9905104, the dynamics of this theory describes
warped versions of both the singular and the resolved conifolds through
different (symmetry breaking) vacua. We construct these supergravity solutions
explicitly and match them with the gauge theory with different sets of vacuum
expectation values of the bi-fundamental fields A_1, A_2, B_1, B_2. For the
resolved conifold, we find a non-singular SU(2)\times U(1)\times U(1) symmetric
warped solution produced by a stack of D3-branes localized at a point on the
blown-up 2-sphere. It describes a smooth RG flow from AdS_5 \times T^{1,1} in
the UV to AdS_5 \times S^5 in the IR, produced by giving a VEV to just one
field, e.g. B_2. The presence of a condensate of baryonic operator det B_2 is
confirmed using a Euclidean D3-brane wrapping a 4-cycle inside the resolved
conifold. The Green's functions on the singular and resolved conifolds are
central to our calculations and are discussed in some detail.
