This blog post makes me uneasy. The pg_embedding code on github gives impression of PoC, while blog post creates impression that pg_embedding is ready for use.
If we consider pg_embedding ready for use, why don't you compare with pgvector:
1) The need to rebuild index every instance restart,
2) Replication support?
- kelvich 3y agoThank you, point taken. The blog post does mention memory limitations, but we could elaborate more on the fact that the index is entirely in-memory and clarify the user-visible consequences of this fact. We'll edit the post for better clarity.
- akorotkov 3y agoOk. I have to also mentions that none of the issues I've mentioned are consequences of in-memory nature of index. Both are issues of implementation.
