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.
