About Zilliz Cloud
Zilliz Cloud is a cloud-native service for LF AI Milvus®, you can set up your Milvus cluster to unlock high-performance similarly search with no extra effort needed for infrastructure management.
Why should you choose Zilliz Cloud?
Today’s databases aren’t designed to work with vector embeddings effectively, while Milvus is born for vector embeddings, it can scale for billions of vector embeddings
Zilliz Cloud provides an out-of-box Milvus experience based on fully managed cloud service, freeing you from the headache of database maintenance.
Zilliz Cloud can deliver surpassingly high performance of over 1000+ query per second (QPS) with very low low latency for vector search.
You can choose any sizes and classes of databases and pay what you have actually used only.
In full consideration of your data security, Zilliz Cloud complies with the SOC 2 standard and will provide Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for your database soon.

Where can vector database help?
- Image similarity search: Images made searchable and instantaneously return the most similar images from a massive database.
- Video similarity search: By converting key frames into vectors and then feeding the results into Milvus, billions of videos can be searched and recommended in near real time.
- Audio similarity search: Quickly query massive volumes of audio data such as speech, music, sound effects, and surface similar sounds.
- Molecular similarity search: Blazing fast similarity search, substructure search, or superstructure search for a specified molecule.
- Recommender system: Recommend information or products based on user behaviors and needs.
- Question answering system: Interactive digital QA chatbot that automatically answers user questions.
- DNA sequence classification: Accurately sort out the classification of a gene in milliseconds by comparing similar DNA sequence.
- Text search engine: Help users find the information they are looking for by comparing keywords against a database of texts.
- Anomaly detection: Identifies data points, events, and/or observations that deviate from a dataset's normal behavior.
