Features

• 

  Cost-efficient

  Milvus improves upon high-performance storage and index libraries such as Faiss and hnswlib, guaranteeing time and resource efficient query speeds. Using a variety of acceleration methods (e.g., CPU, SIMD, GPU, and FPGA), Milvus can retrieve vector data on trillion-scale datasets in milliseconds.

• 

  On-demand Performance

  Milvus is cloud native and can be horizontally scaled with ease. The platform is capable of handling storage and computation at any scale, and has a microservice design that supports on-demand and automatic scaling.

• 

  Built for Unstructured Data

  Milvus helps users focus on the semantic meaning of unstructured data rather than complexities such as sharding, data persistence, and load balancing. Milvus supports high-performance, hybrid search of vector and scalar data, opening up new possibilities for unstructured data processing.

• 

  Community-backed

  Milvus is a graduate of the LF AI & Data Foundation's incubator program and has been adopted by 1,000+ organizations worldwide. The platform's vibrant open-source community welcomes contributions from everyone.

• 

  User-friendly

  Milvus supports multiple data types and provides comprehensive multi-language SDKs. Through the Python-ORM API, Milvus offers an integrated user experience across laptops, local clusters, and the cloud. A wealth of deployment and visualization tools are available to help users get Milvus up and running faster.
