Manage Data

Data in Milvus are called entities. An entity consists of a group of fields and is used to represent unstructured data like images, magazine articles, short videos, and more.

• Insert Data: Prepare and insert entities into Milvus. Milvus 2.1 now supports VARCHAR data type on scalar field.

• Delete Data: Milvus supports deleting entities by primary key filtered with boolean expression.

• Compact Data: Milvus supports automatic data compaction by default. You can still compact data manually and check the compaction status.

• Upsert Entities: Upserting is a combination of insert and delete operations. Milvus allows you to upsert entities.
