LanceDB
Vector databasesAn open-source, embedded vector database built on the Lance columnar format.
LanceDB is an embedded vector database — it runs in your process, with no server to operate — built on the Lance columnar format, so it stores vectors and the data around them efficiently and works well directly on object storage.
It targets the case where you want fast local vector search without standing up infrastructure.
Where it's ideally used
A fit when you want fast, embedded vector search with no server, especially over data on object storage.
Where it doesn't fit
The embedded model is less suited to a large, shared, centrally managed vector service.
