Milvus is completely open source (https://github.com/milvus-io/milvus https://github.com/milvus-io/milvus) and supports a variety of index types (https://milvus.io/docs/overview.md#Index-types https://milvus.io/docs/overview.md#Index-types) and support various consistency levels, scalar/metadata filtering, and time travel. We started working on Milvus back in 2018, with 2.0 being released in January 2022 (https://github.com/milvus-io/milvus/releases/tag/v2.0.0 https://github.com/milvus-io/milvus/releases/tag/v2.0.0).
For those interested, here's a comparison with other open source vector databases: https://zilliz.com/comparison https://zilliz.com/comparison. For those who don't want to be burdened with installing and maintaining a local database, there's a managed service available as well: https://zilliz.com/cloud https://zilliz.com/cloud.
- m1117 4y agoThanks! BTW it only compares open-sourced databases, and there's no Pinecone in it, which is a very popular cloud-managed option. Would be cool if you could benchmark/compare it.
- kacperlukawski 4y agoI'm affiliated with Qdrant and was quite surprised to see us listed in your comparisons with some false statements. If you claim to be the only database with billion-scale vector support, it would be great to make your benchmarks public, as we did: https://qdrant.tech/benchmarks/ https://qdrant.tech/benchmarks/ Btw, Milvus is described in your comparisons as "a fully open source and independent project", while Weaviate and Qdrant, in contrary, are "maintained by a single commercial company offering a cloud version". Why then the suggested way in the Milvus Quick Start on github is to use Zilliz Cloud?
- redskyluan 4y agowould you please update the milvus score in your benchmark with the latest milvus, thanks
