- songrenchu 3y agoYou are right, there are numerous vector databases in the market. Most of them (including us) are still pretty early and a lot of enterprise readiness features to build. Including role based / privilege based access control, authN/Z integration, data versioning and backup / restore, fault tolerance, data streaming in/out, etc. We have first hand experience on the enterprise level product development and sales in our previous job at a series D graph database startup, and we will apply our learnings there to make Epsilla enterprise ready in the next few months
