OpenSearch Database is a data search and analytics platform developed from Elasticsearch. This platform allows storing, searching and analyzing data in real-time, suitable for applications such as log analytics, system monitoring and text search.
How does OpenSearch work as a Vector Database?
Currently, vDB supports deploying OpenSearch as a Vector Database, meaning you can use it for approximate search (k - Nearest Neighbor - kNN) on vector embeddings by integrating the kNN plugin on your OpenSearch Cluster. This is a common approach to building vector search systems for AI/ML, NLP, Recommendation Systems, or Semantic Search.
