Developer-friendly, database for multimodal AI
LanceDB is an open-source database for vector-search built with persistent storage, which greatly simplifies retrevial, filtering and management of embeddings.
The key features of LanceDB include:
-
Production-scale vector search with no servers to manage.
-
Store, query and filter vectors, metadata and multi-modal data (text, images, videos, point clouds, and more).
-
Support for vector similarity search, full-text search and SQL.
-
Native Python and Javascript/Typescript support.
-
Zero-copy, automatic versioning, manage versions of your data without needing extra infrastructure.
-
GPU support in building vector index(*).
-
Ecosystem integrations with LangChain 🦜️🔗, LlamaIndex 🦙, Apache-Arrow, Pandas, Polars, DuckDB and more on the way.
LanceDB's core is written in Rust 🦀 and is built using Lance, an open-source columnar format designed for performant ML workloads.

const db = await lancedb.connect('data/sample-lancedb');
const table = await db.createTable({
name: 'vectors',
data: [
{ id: 1, vector: [0.1, 0.2], item: "foo", price: 10 },

})
const query = table.search([0.1, 0.3]).limit(2);
const results = await query.execute();
// You can also search for rows by specific criteria without involving a vector search.
const rowsByCriteria = await table.search(undefined).where("price >= 10").execute();Python
