SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

AgentDB Vector Search enables rapid, scalable semantic search over large document collections by leveraging a high-performance vector store and embedding pipelines.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • High-speed vector search: Sub-millisecond retrieval on large datasets using HNSW indexing and quantization.
  • RAG and knowledge bases: Ideal for retrieval-augmented generation and enterprise document retrieval.
  • Hybrid workflows: Combine vector similarity with metadata filters for precise results.
  • Use Case: Build a knowledge base for customer support where user queries are matched to the most relevant articles.

Quick Start

  1. Initialize the vector store npx agentdb@latest init ./vectors.db
  2. Store embeddings and documents (example: compute embeddings and insert patterns via your app)
  3. Run a semantic search npx agentdb@latest query ./vectors.db "[0.1,0.2,0.3,...]"

FAQPage Schema
How do I perform semantic search over large enterprise document collections?▼

Semantic search over large document collections is enabled by storing document embeddings in AgentDB, which uses HNSW indexing to retrieve matching content rapidly. This approach supports sub-millisecond querying for enterprise knowledge bases.

Does AgentDB vector search support retrieval-augmented generation workflows?▼

Yes, retrieval-augmented generation is a core workflow supported by AgentDB vector search. You compute query embeddings, run a vector similarity search to fetch relevant documents, and pass the retrieved context to your language model.

What do I need to set up vector search with AgentDB?▼

To set up vector search, you need Node.js 18+, AgentDB v1.0.7+, and an embedding model or OpenAI API key. You initialize a vector database, store your computed embeddings and documents, and execute vector queries.

What is the best way to achieve sub-millisecond document retrieval on large datasets?▼

Sub-millisecond document retrieval on large datasets is achieved using AgentDB's HNSW indexing and quantization features. This vector search mechanism maintains high performance even as your knowledge base scales significantly.

Can I filter vector search results by metadata in AgentDB?▼

Yes, you can combine vector similarity search with metadata filters in AgentDB to build hybrid workflows. This allows you to narrow down semantic search results precisely based on specific document attributes.
