Open-source Vector Databases
Open-source vector databases
In this tutorial, let’s look at some open-source vector databases. A vector database is a specialized database designed to efficiently store, retrieve, and perform operations on multi-dimensional vector data.
Vectors are arrays of numeric values or other data types with fixed lengths that represent points or elements in multidimensional space. They can represent various data, such as numerical features, text or image embeddings, geographic coordinates, or any other data that can be represented as vectors.
Some open-source vector databases are as follows:
- Milvus
- Weaviate
- Pgvector
- QDrant
- ChromaDB
