February 2023
Milvus 2.2.3 is now 4X faster than Milvus 2.0
Unlocking Insights: A Comprehensive Analysis of Milvus for Vector Collections Workloads
In this detailed technical paper, we embark on a thorough Milvus performance examination, focusing on its performance and features tailored for vector collections workloads. Our scrutiny delves into critical aspects of vector database performance, such as query performance (latency and throughput) and scalability, with a particular emphasis on billion-scale collections and multiple replicas.
Why Developers Should Take Note:
For developers and architects seeking an informed evaluation of these technologies for their unique use cases, this data provides invaluable insights. We specifically address similarity search use cases, covering applications like semantic text search, targeted advertising, e-commerce product recommendations, user-generated content (UGC) recommenders, risk-control and anti-fraud systems, and advancements in new drug discovery.
A Snapshot of Our Benchmark Approach:
Our benchmark test is geared towards establishing a consistent and up-to-date comparison, reflecting the latest developments in Milvus. The intention is to periodically revisit and re-run these benchmarks, ensuring the information remains current. All benchmark code is openly accessible on GitHub, encouraging the developer community to engage through issues, comments, or pull requests.
