What are your thoughts around the various vector dbs (pinecone, etc)?
DuckDB or pgVector or with all of the work going forward in Arrow being able to already support vectors/arrays, it seems that the specific “vector” class of db is hype/marketing.
- simonw 3y agoPersonally I think vector lookups make more sense as a new kind of index for existing databases, as opposed to an entirely new class of database.
- samwillis 3y agoCompletely agree. Have you my chance come across a good SQLite vector extension that works in the browser? I haven't found one yet.
- simonw 3y agosqlite-vss mentions WASM in a few places - https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aasg017%2Fsqlite-vss%20wasm&type=code https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aasg017%2Fsqlite-vss%20was... - I'm not sure how easy it is to get that running in the browser though.
