An Open-Source Vector Database Framework is a vector database framework that is an open-source database.
- Context:
- It can (typically) support storing and querying vector data for applications like AI and machine learning.
- It can (often) provide features such as vector similarity search and full-text search.
- It can range from simple, lightweight solutions to more complex, scalable systems.
- It can integrate with various programming languages and frameworks.
- It can be used in applications requiring efficient handling of high-dimensional data.
- ...
- Example(s):
- LanceDB, a lightweight, serverless, multi-modal vector database designed for simplicity and efficiency.
- Chroma, an open-source, AI-native embedding database designed for managing and pushing embeddings efficiently.
- Qdrant, a high-performance vector database with low-latency search capabilities.
- Milvus, known for its robust performance and scalability in handling large-scale vector data.
- Pinecone, a managed, cloud-native vector database designed for AI-powered applications.
- Weaviate, combining vector search with structured filtering and offering fault tolerance.
- Zilliz, focusing on enterprise-grade AI applications with a fully-managed vector database solution.
- ...
- Counter-Example(s):
- Traditional Relational Database, which is optimized for structured data rather than vector or multimodal data.
- File-based Storage Systems, which lack the advanced querying capabilities and performance optimizations of open-source vector databases.
