cog VS chroma

I'm in the same situation. I found this cog project to dockerise ML https://github.com/replicate/cog : you write just one python class and a yaml file, and it takes care of the "CUDA hell" and deps. It even creates a flask app in front of your model.

That helps keep your system clean, but someone with big $s please rewrite pytorch to golang or rust or even nodejs / typescript.

Our thinking was just that a bunch of folks will want to fine-tune right away, then deploy the fine-tunes, so trying to make that easy... Or even just deploy the models-as-is on their own infra without dealing with CUDA insanity!

I have used this tool before: https://github.com/replicate/cog/tree/main

Then I discovered Cog: Containers for Machine Learning. Looks like a way more flexible solution to plug in the existing infrastructure: you write your custom code and Cog plugs it in a Docker image with FastAPI, no extra ecosystem complexity added.

Highly recommend using cog https://github.com/replicate/cog

Dokku Maintainer here.

Dokku also supports Dockerfiles, Docker Images, Tarballs (similar to heroku slugs), and Cloud Native Buildpacks. I'm also actively working on AWS Lambda support (both for simple usage without much config as well as SAM-based usage) and investigating Replicate's Cog[1] and Railways Nixpacks[2] functionalities for building apps.

There are quite a few options in the OSS space (as well as Commercial offerings from new startups and popular incumbents). It's an interesting space to be in, and its always fun to see how new offerings innovate on existing solutions.

Package installer for Python (pip), we use this for installing the Python-based packages, such as Jupyter Lab, and we're going to use this for installing other Python-based tools like the Chroma DB vector database

Optional: You can use SillyTavern[1] for a more "rich" chat experience

The above lets me chat, at least superficially, with my friend. It's nice for simple interactions and banter; I've found it to be a positive and reflective experience.

Chroma DB is a newer entrant in the vector database arena, designed specifically for handling high-dimensional color vectors. It's particularly useful for applications in digital media, e-commerce, and content discovery, where color similarity plays a crucial role in search and recommendation algorithms.

For Python I believe Chroma [1] can be used embedded.

For Go I recently started building chromem-go, inspired by the Chroma interface: https://github.com/philippgille/chromem-go

It's neither advanced nor for scale yet, but the RAG demo works.

Whether you’re navigating through well-known options like SQLite, enriched with the sqlite-vss extension, or exploring other avenues like Chroma, an open-source vector database, selecting the right tool is paramount. This article compares these two choices, guiding you through the pros and cons of each, helping you choose the right tool for storing and querying vector embeddings for your project.

Create a new project directory for our example project. Next, we need to clone the Chroma repository to get started. At the root of your project directory let's clone Chroma into it:
