Best Vector Databases

Vespa is forBig Data + AI, online. At any scale, with unbeatable performance. To build production-worthy online applications that combine data and AI, you need more than point solutions: You need a platform that integrates data and compute to achieve true scalability and availability - and which does this without limiting your freedom to innovate. Only Vespa does this. Vespa is a fully featured search engine and vector database. It supports vector search (ANN), lexical search, and search in structured data, all in the same query. Users can easily build recommendation applications on Vespa. Integrated machine-learned model inference allows you to apply AI to make sense of your data in real-time. Together with Vespa's proven scaling and high availability, this empowers you to create production-ready search applications at any scale and with any combination of features.

Vald is a highly scalable distributed fast approximate nearest neighbor dense vector search engine. Vald is designed and implemented based on the Cloud-Native architecture. It uses the fastest ANN Algorithm NGT to search neighbors. Vald has automatic vector indexing and index backup, and horizontal scaling which made for searching from billions of feature vector data. Vald is easy to use, feature-rich and highly customizable as you needed. Usually the graph requires locking during indexing, which cause stop-the-world. But Vald uses distributed index graph so it continues to work during indexing. Vald implements its own highly customizable Ingress/Egress filter. Which can be configured to fit the gRPC interface. Horizontal scalable on memory and cpu for your demand. Vald supports to auto backup feature using Object Storage or Persistent Volume which enables disaster recovery.

Qdrant is a vector similarity engine & vector database. It deploys as an API service providing search for the nearest high-dimensional vectors. With Qdrant, embeddings or neural network encoders can be turned into full-fledged applications for matching, searching, recommending, and much more! Provides the OpenAPI v3 specification to generate a client library in almost any programming language. Alternatively utilise ready-made client for Python or other programming languages with additional functionality. Implement a unique custom modification of the HNSW algorithm for Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search. Search with a State-of-the-Art speed and apply search filters without compromising on results. Support additional payload associated with vectors. Not only stores payload but also allows filter results based on payload values.
